McCarthy the Great is the brilliant young footballer from the bush determined to make good in the bright lights of the city. One of the great dunce-clown heroes, McCarthy is a completely inept social climber, and his incredible adventures as he struggles to cope with the toughness and barrenness of modern urban life give rise to a series of hardeyed observations about life in Austrralia. Women, football coaches, businessmen all get him down in the end.
