00:00I think from a threat side of thing, it's adults that are going to cause you as a referee a potential risk.
00:07Now, whether that's parents or whether that's players, as I alluded to before,
00:13I think there's more of an issue with coaches as opposed to the actual players.
00:17We're not just looking at violence. We're looking at the words.
00:21I mean, if you said to me, how many times are you sworn at every other match?
00:27I mean, that's probably, yeah, but we deal with that.
00:32Simbins have been fantastic for that. I've done women's football, men's football, youth.
00:41Why is it men behave in the way they behave?
00:44You know, I can do a women's game and I don't get half the grief.
00:50They don't argue which way the ball's, you know, who's throwing is it?
00:54You know, they accept it. There's no undercurrent going on.
01:01There's none of the, some would say, gamesmanship going on.
01:05So I think, again, we can, I think there is a gender thing.
01:09There's a gender thing there, how we conduct ourselves as men.
01:11Perhaps we get sucked into a, into this macho environment.
01:20Would we behave like that normally or does, you know, does the actual participation in sport have a, both a positive effect,
01:30but also it can take us to areas that perhaps we don't want to think are, are areas that we would naturally go to.
01:41But again, we put on our kit and we behave in a different way.
01:44Okay.
01:44Well, thank you.
01:44Now, let's take you.
01:56All right.
