Obviously having someone of Tom's calibre,
00:04
put his hand up to be involved in the Carlton Draft
00:08
and have the ability or we're very lucky to be able to get that number one pick
00:12
and bring him in.
00:14
He's just an unbelievable person.
00:16
The calibre, he got around the lads,
00:19
he was in the player's WhatsApp group last night,
00:22
introducing himself and saying that he was really looking forward to coming to play.
00:26
Being a country guy, he understands community footy and to make his score,
00:32
and he just bought into it.
00:34
He said, I've got a few things to do at the core of it,
00:36
I want to win a game of footy.
00:38
And to get that from someone who's played over 300 games of AFL footy,
00:43
really want to enable us to get the win today.
00:48
It was just great.
00:50
The crowd that he was able to bring in for us,
00:54
the footy was certainly a product,
00:57
but the big thing for me for today,
01:00
and for a lot of people here,
01:02
was it's been a very difficult 15 to 18 months throughout the community,
01:06
with the fires and the difficulty through the ag and the farming landscape.
01:10
So to be able to get people back and connect,
01:12
and today enable people to have a little bit of fun,
01:17
and enjoy themselves,
01:19
and take their mind off what's going on in their work life or personal life,
01:23
and it was certainly all worthwhile.
01:27
Seven games in now,
01:29
certainly when we play our brand of footy,
01:34
we've been competitive to win two games,
01:37
two others we've just been run over in the last quarter.
01:41
That's the growth that we're looking for.
01:44
We certainly understand where we're coming from.
01:47
We've had a difficult couple of years,
01:49
so to get a couple of wins early in the first half of the season,
01:53
certainly can build a lot of confidence within the group,
01:56
but out there footy is certainly good enough,
01:58
and that's going to be the challenge.
02:00
We're going to certainly continue to have ups and downs throughout the rest of the year,
02:04
but if we can start to close the gap between our good performances
02:09
and our poor performances,
02:11
that's all that we're looking for.
02:13
It's going to be another year of growth,
02:15
a pretty new group,
02:17
probably 12 players played today,
02:19
it's their first season of footy at the club,
02:22
so we would expect to continue to improve as the year goes.
02:26
So yeah, wrapped with the result overall,
02:29
and it's certainly going to be a good line.
