00:00That was, as I say, a big day for the club, a great result.
00:03Football and netball both got the win.
00:04I think it's the first time you've done the double this year.
00:06Yeah, first time for the double, so it's great.
00:09You know, really reward for effort for the boys.
00:11You know, I felt like, you know, we've been a little inconsistent with our form, let's be honest.
00:16But in a sense, we've always been in games, which is a good sign.
00:19Always there close enough to win it.
00:21And, yeah, the last two weeks have been great to see the evolution of our game.
00:25You know, we've got the reward state, which is good.
00:27What's clicked in the last two weeks that wasn't there a couple of weeks ago when I spoke to you?
00:31Well, it definitely helps having a ruckman.
00:32So Ken McCallum, I think, has made a big difference just with his presence, even around the training.
00:38And even though we didn't have him today, there's still that sense that he'll be back.
00:41So no doubt our mids are feeling a little bit better.
00:44But, yeah, I think, you know, our ball movement is getting better slowly.
00:48And we're starting to find, you know, what that looks like.
00:52And, you know, the great thing is, I think we've built some consistency with our effort around the ball.
00:57Which is good.
00:58Your start was pretty impressive too today.
01:00I mean, kicking into that breeze and kick five goals against it.
01:03That sort of set up the game for you, didn't it?
01:05Yeah, absolutely.
01:06Yeah.
01:06And, look, you know, we really dived into the history of the club.
01:09And I think the boys loved that.
01:10It's great to hear stories about the past and success.
01:13And, you know, we're all fortunate enough to wear the jumper, right?
01:16And, you know, we're all caretakers.
01:18We're borrowing it.
01:19So that was the real theme around it.
01:21We wanted to make sure we did our past players really proud.
01:24And showed them what a tough and attacking brand looks like.
01:27And, yeah, I think they got to see it.
01:28And, obviously, as you say, Dali next week, though, the test will come now.
01:32You've had a couple of good wins.
01:33You've now got to frank it, don't you, with a good performance next week.
01:36Yeah, this will be a challenge.
01:37We're going to have a couple of guys away.
01:39Unfortunately, Harry loaded getting married.
01:42So we're going to have Elliot and both Brock Leonard out.
01:45But, look, you know, that comes with footy.
01:46So it'll give a few boys opportunities inside to, you know, step up and play a good brand.
01:51But, yeah, I'm really looking forward to next week.
01:52It'll be great to see where we're at.
01:54Awesome.
