Excusing himself from Beth, Paul heads down to the concourse at the back of the stands, where an eight-year-old kid has a footy. How one remarkable kick changed a lifeRyan PierseThere's this bloke, see, Paul Waterhouse, a producer mate of mine from Channel Seven, who I've worked with over many stories for their Sunday Night program. For the next hour or so, Paul and the kid kick back and forth, as the old rhythms start to come back, his hand-eye-foot co-ordination, the way to kick the ball, so it soars. He joined Channel Seven, rose through the producing ranks, married Beth, and a year ago had a baby daughter, Elsie. Under the lights, he'd kicked the ball on target, to the roar of the crowd.
