00:00 Yes, there's a lot of talent, but obviously that doesn't always mean success.

00:03 And I think that's what we've worked on this pre-season,

00:05 is sort of gelling those new players in and getting them up to standards

00:08 with our standards as a team and what we expect day to day.

00:11 And they've been great at that so far.

00:14 Obviously, when the games come, there'll be some tough conversations

00:17 about picking teams and stuff.

00:19 And that'll be for us as a leadership group to keep that playing group together

00:22 and keep everyone on one side and looking towards that one common goal as a team.

00:25 So, yes, it'll be interesting.

00:27 And like you said, obviously, stepping up to the leadership group

00:29 has been an interesting role for me and something I've quite enjoyed.

00:33 I've still got a lot to learn, but it's been good enough

00:35 that I can help the group along.

00:37 It just sort of was a title that got put on it,

00:40 and I was invited to the meetings that they have weekly.

00:43 But no, I'm not really feeling any older.

00:46 I've tried to just be myself, and there's obviously a lot of different ways

00:50 you can lead a team.

00:51 And I'm probably not the most serious person around the group,

00:54 but you've got to have that balance, I think.

00:56 Just trying to not change anything about the way I am and do things I do

01:01 and sort of try and just be myself, like I said.

01:03 And I think it's working.

01:04 Hopefully it's working.

01:05 We'll see as the season goes on.
