00:00 having some players back this last week and you got the 4-1 win against Newcastle as a result.
00:05 How important and how well equipped is the squad at this moment in time to find a run of consistency into Christmas?
00:11 Yeah, look, it's still a challenge because, you know, we've still got, I think this morning I had a look, there was still eight out injured from our first team squad.
00:22 All have contributed, you know, perhaps maybe from Ash Phillips who hasn't played a lot, but the rest of them have all contributed.
00:28 So it's still a little bit of a challenge for us.
00:31 It's not just the games it affects, it affects training.
00:34 You know, when we had all the guys fit at the start of the year, the level of our training was a lot higher.
00:38 We could be a lot more intense with what we do.
00:40 It's a little bit different now.
00:41 So, but, you know, it was good, like I said, to get back Pape and Richie last week and it certainly helped us just to freshen up the team.
00:49 And, you know, hopefully between now and kind of the new year, although then we'll lose players for international commitment.
00:56 So I guess for the foreseeable future anyway, it's kind of where we're going to be.
