AFL finals LIVE: Port rattled by ‘unfair’ movie link as Lions look to extend unbeaten run
Given the movie’s association with atomic bombs that eventually devastated Hiroshima and Nagasaki, many critics found the theme in poor taste.Veteran Ollie Wines said some teammates were left “scratching their heads” over the theme given they hadn’t seen the movie.
Coach Ken Hinkley was forced to defend the theme during a tense press conference on Friday – before conceding he too hadn’t seen the film.“The key part about that I think Ollie explained it incredibly well is it’s just a little story about how people had to come together over a long period of time to work really hard on one single thing – an outcome we’re trying to get.“I haven’t seen the movie myself so it’s not that big a theme for us.This match gets underway at 7:25pm AEST from the Gabba.
