01:47 [APPLAUSE]

01:50 Wow.

01:55 What a game.

01:57 Firstly, to the umpires, thank you very much

02:00 for having great control of that game.

02:02 I hope you did a fantastic job.

02:04 Thank you.

02:05 To Lodden Valley for putting on this season again.

02:10 It's been a fantastic season.

02:12 I've thoroughly enjoyed my season coaching in this league

02:15 for the first time after being an umpire some 20-odd years ago.

02:20 So thank you very much for everything you've done throughout the year.

02:24 To Jen, Laura and the many girls, great game.

02:28 You really took it up to us and you made us absolutely work to the brink.

02:34 Some of my girls are absolutely exhausted.

02:36 So credit to you.

02:38 Fantastic season.

02:39 Well done.

02:40 [APPLAUSE]

02:44 And to my team.

02:47 Wow.

02:49 I've only won one A Grade Premiership before

02:53 and when I took this team on this year I knew I had a job to do.

02:57 It's always hard to win back-to-back premierships.

03:00 But I had full belief in this group of girls

03:03 and I was really excited to get in there and actually work with them.

03:07 And to their credit, they're so committed, so dedicated,

03:10 do everything that I ask them to do

03:13 and want to improve and want to grow and want to be better.

03:18 Yeah, it's a full credit to each and every one of you.

03:21 I'm just so proud of you.

03:24 Special mention to my sister.

03:27 She's 48 years old and Jane's just won another A Grade Premiership.

03:32 I'm going to give her an age out because it's unbelievable

03:36 the way she can get her body up and back and playing again.

03:39 And we've got another one that's over 42

03:42 and happened to take out best on court today.

03:44 So that old girl's still got it as well.

03:47 So congratulations to you both.

03:50 Full team effort.

03:52 Yeah, you bloody ripper.

03:54 So proud.

03:56 [APPLAUSE]

03:58 Just before we attend to the final bit of business with the Premiership Cup,

04:02 on behalf of the Long Valley Board, to all of the players,

04:06 all of the officials, all of the volunteers, spectators who've come out,

04:09 families and friends to make today such a special day,

04:12 those behind the cameras, et cetera, well done.

04:15 It's been an awesome day at netball, some amazing games,

04:18 some close results and some very deserving winners.

04:21 So on behalf of the board, give yourselves a big round of applause.

04:24 It's been an amazing day.

04:26 And finally, Deidre, I'll get you to hand over that A Grade Premiership Cup

04:29 to Adam and the girls, who are Premiers in 2023.

04:32 [APPLAUSE]

04:40 Enjoy the celebrations and safe travels home.
