Take the Steps
Take the Steps is a 2024 Australian sports documentary that follows the Collingwood Football Club during the 2023 AFL season. The film is produced by the Collingwood Football Club in collaboration with AFL Studios and features key figures such as coach Craig McRae, captain Darcy Moore, young player Nick Daicos, and veteran Scott Pendlebury. Through interviews and a mix of game-day and off-field footage, the film captures the team's pursuit of the premiership. Directed by Luke Winzar and James Moriarty, the documentary premiered on 28 February 2024 at Hoyts in Melbourne Central. It provides an intimate look at the team's dynamics and culture, including moments like a Mother's Day address from Beau McCreery's mother to the team, while also facing criticism for its selective storytelling, particularly regarding the omission of defender John Noble before the finals.
