About the episode

On October 12, 2002, the Sari Club in Bali was ripped apart by a terrorist attack. AFL footballer Jason McCartney was in the club at the time.  From a young man growing up dreaming of playing League footy, to lying in a hospital bed fighting for his life, this is a story of tragedy, courage and iron will.  Jason's return match became so much more to Australia than a game of footy. It became a symbol of hope, healing and some rare light in what had been such a dark time for so many Australians and their families.  The Moment, Jason McCartney, tells Jason's story.
