*Winner of the William Hill Sports Book of the Year Award 2014*

The Pies beat the Saints and the city of Melbourne was still cloaked in black and white crepe paper when the rumour of a pack rape by celebrating footballers began to surface. By morning the head of the sexual crimes squad confirmed to journalists that they were preparing to question two players ... And so as police were confiscating bed sheets from a townhouse in South Melbourne the trial by media began.

What does a young footballer do to cut loose? At night some play what they think of as pranks or games. Night games with women. Sometimes these involve consensual sex but sometimes they don't and sometimes they fall into a grey area.

In Night Games Anna Krien follows the trial of a young footballer. Fearlessly and without prejudice she shines a light into the darkest recesses of sports culture.
