Despite recent rumors, Netflix has not confirmed any plans to release a documentary on the Collingwood Football Club and its head coach, Craig McRae. However, Collingwood fans were treated to an in-depth look at their team’s 2023 AFL premiership-winning season with the release of Take the Steps, an 83-minute documentary produced in collaboration with AFL Studios.
Released in February 2024, Take the Steps provides an intimate behind-the-scenes look at Collingwood’s path to victory, highlighting the challenges, strategies, and team dynamics that defined their championship run. The film centers around four key figures: head coach Craig McRae, captain Darcy Moore, rising star Nick Daicos, and veteran player Scott Pendlebury. Through personal interviews and exclusive footage, the documentary explores the leadership, determination, and resilience that fueled the team’s success.
Premiering on February 28, 2024, at Hoyts Cinemas across Australia, the documentary received praise for its insightful portrayal of Collingwood’s journey. Viewers appreciated its focus on McRae’s innovative coaching style, the players’ commitment, and the camaraderie that shaped their remarkable season.
At this time, there is no indication that Take the Steps is available on Netflix or any other streaming platform. While fans may hope for wider accessibility in the future, the documentary remains a significant piece of storytelling for those invested in Collingwood’s rise to glory.
For those eager to catch a glimpse of Take the Steps, the official trailer offers a preview of the team’s unforgettable journey to the 2023 AFL premiership.
