Majak Daw and his family fled Sudanese Civil War. Via Egypt, Majak arrived in Australia with little english and no expectations. Initially lonely, Majak connected to his new homeland via football. It took him to enormous highs. But he also found himself desperately low. 

Majak Daw's story is as powerful as they come. 

Daw's interview is the first in an eight-part series. New episodes will be published at AFL.com.au and in the AFL Live app every Sunday evening. 

Let's Talk is a series that comes from the creators of Last Time I Cried. Let's Talk provides a platform for those we have seen on our screens, to talk about their experiences and learnings, and how they managed to get through dark times - both then, and now. 

It is hoped that those who watch or listen, find something that helps them in some way.
