It's going to be a massive, intense two and a half, three hours, isn't it?
00:26
Yeah, it is. Yeah, I don't think it's probably a bigger game.
00:33
Yeah, it is. Obviously, the boys have been there twice before now.
00:37
Won one, lost one, so I think mentally we know what to expect.
00:42
But yeah, again, it's a massive game and we've just got to go out there and give our best and whatever happens, happens.
00:47
Is that a big help, actually, having done it twice before, do you think?
00:50
Yeah, I think so. And experience both sides of it.
00:52
I think so, I think so. Yeah, I think so. You've got to learn something from it, right?
00:57
I think, yeah, I think it's a positive.
01:01
Last game ever for Matty Heywood, he got a great send-off, didn't he?
01:06
Are you planning for that, obviously?
01:07
Yeah, no. We obviously wanted to send him off on his way, in the right way.
01:13
I don't think he did that. She's obviously been an incredible player for us, an incredible person for us,
01:21
and we wanted to send him off on the right way. Yeah, I don't know.
01:24
A good thing to say about Matty. Lovely person, great hockey player.
01:28
Had a massive impact on British Hockey and a massive impact on our hockey team.
01:32
Do you think he's left a legacy here, as well, in terms of what he's achieved, or what he's helped the club achieve here,
01:38
and we'll rub off on those younger guys around?
01:40
Yeah, I think so. I think so. I hope so. Especially with the fans.
01:47
I think with the team, we were a young team, he's been incredible with them.
01:50
Hopefully they can learn from what he's taught them, and his personality.
01:55
But yeah, he's definitely left a legacy here.
01:58
We started something three years ago, and he's been very successful.
02:02
Again, a massive part of that.
02:04
I think there's 12 players in the locker room of one or five trophies, or three league titles.
02:10
There's a lot more that have won two and three, but it's...
02:16
Yeah, he's been a massive, massive part of that.
