Clip description
Ralph’s (Jared Daperis) nerves have got to him. He tells Johnno (Michael Harrison) about his dream where he appears on court naked in front of the home crowd. Jacinta (Greta Larkins) tells her grandfather Max (Alan Hopgood) that she really wants the Outlaws to win. At training, the Rams arrive to intimidate the Outlaws, targeting their ex team-mate Ralph in particular.
Curator’s notes
This clip is about the importance of sport psychology and how a player’s thinking can influence their game. The clip shows the bullying and intimidation tactics of the rival team – using their aggressive attitude and size to intimidate. The physiological aspect is further emphasised by the way that Scubi (Stephany Avila), Trish (Nick Colla) and Joel (Nick Colla) target Ralph, using their knowledge of his lack of confidence under pressure to demoralize him and to destabilise the team.
