CAPTAINS Rory Sloane and Stephen Coniglio, and stars Nic Naitanui and Eddie Betts, will be key faces in Amazon's new docu-series to launch in 2021.

As well as Gold Coast coach Stuart Dew and Richmond president Peggy O'Neal, cameras will track the six individuals through their every move in 2020 to bring fans unprecedented behind-the-scenes insight.

Filming started ahead of the 2020 season and continued during the COVID-19 shutdown, while filmmakers have been granted special access for the restricted season restart.

Such is the access, cameramen were spotted in the GWS rooms tracking Coniglio in round one, and at the Crows' quarter-time address during the Showdown capitulation against Port Adelaide on Saturday.

Crews will be also following the Crows inside the Gold Coast quarantine for at least three matches starting this weekend.

The series on the six AFL figures follows the success of Amazon's project on the Australian cricket team, The Test.

West Coast held discussions with Australian cricket coach and Eagles board member Justin Langer to learn about his experiences with The Test before committing to their part in the series. 

"If we can help promote the game and then in turn help people understand what helps our club tick, I think it's a positive thing," Eagles coach Adam Simpson told AFL.com.au.
