00:00In terms of Romero and van der Veen, obviously we've seen bits of van der Veen, haven't we?

00:06And you were a bit more hopeful that they might be back around now.

00:10Has there been a sort of setback or are you just having to be super, super cautious?

00:15No, it's not either. It's about sort of, like I said, with Micky, it's just, you know, we made a decision

00:22and I was certainly the catalyst for that to just have a look at exactly, beyond the injury,

00:28how we can get him back in a good space. So he's doing some different things.

00:31He's working with some different people, just as much, not as much about the injury,

00:36as much about just the mechanics of him.

00:39Because we want him back and we want him back in a real good space.

00:42And he's training, he feels really good.

00:45So, you know, we're still confident it's going to be, you know, his return is imminent,

00:51but we just want to make sure we get it right. With Romero, it's just been a kind of healing issue.

00:57You know, the injury hadn't healed up as quickly as we thought it would,

01:01which again, we could have pushed him, risked it, but we've kind of just waited and given it a bit more time.

01:08So we'll get some clear indication as to his healing.

01:11And depending on that, again, his return could be imminent as well.
