A junior fiction series for boys about a local boys' rugby league team who get special coaching and advice from star NRL player Billy Slater. Liam is the captain of the West Hill Ravens, and the heart and soul of the team. He lives, breathes and sleeps footy. The only problem is that it doesn't leave him much time for anything else. Now his schoolwork is suffering and his parents are on his back. He may even have to quit the team. And without their captain, the Ravens' chances of making the finals look grim. Can Billy convince Liam that working with Ravi, the Ravens' inexperienced reserve player, is the key to saving the team's season?
