Mate... Where can I get a copy??? I heard about this on the DSS show a few months ago and the entire film sounds brilliant and rare in production. Love to see it mate.
I was filming at a couple of the shows when they were making the doco. I haven't seen it yet. Trying to chase up a copy myself. I'll let you know if I get my hands on it. The Palm Island kids have awesome natural ability. Here's a couple of the kids that are featured in the doco fighting at last years League titles [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I_e5SDOdHKM[/ame] [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pI4uiOeDOis[/ame]
The Doco is on Message Stick 1.30pm ABC1 http://picasaweb.google.com.au/lh/photo/NMiY18DWwMFUF0vZtoXaeA?feat=directlink
Reggie Selwyn and a few other late teenagers have good power and instincts. I really think that little joey has the best skills. The kid is like 10 (or was when i first saw him) and fought like ****ing roy jones. He would wait wait wait.... the other guy would throw something and joey would slip it and counter.... The older kids kinda got by on speed and power.... they didnt have great silks and defence wasnt excellent.... joey though while having zero power looked like a 20 year old boxing.... he is a beautiful kid too
They are all great kids...Reggie Palm Island is my pick from Palm...natural boxing skills...Here's a clip of little Joey at last years QLD Titles [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JHjbQ8bh-cs[/ame]
