00:00 James Sanderson, congratulations on the testimonial, it's the big game on Sunday, how are you looking forward to it?
00:06 Yeah, massively looking forward to it. It's something that I never thought I'd have and I suppose every Super League player dreams of playing in massive finals but also I dream about the testimonial.
00:20 It's my 16th season now, something I never thought I'd have so really looking forward to coming up against my old team, Uncle K.R. on Sunday and putting up a performance in as well.
00:33 It's been a real rollercoaster to get this far hasn't it with injuries and one thing and another and coming to Leeds, that saved your career really?
00:42 Absolutely, it changed my life, it's what I say on my career, I'm so grateful to this club for everything they've done for me on and off the field and that's something I'll be forever grateful for.
00:53 Looking ahead to this season, it's obviously going to be a big year for Leeds with the signings that the team have made and aiming to improve on last year, confidence in you?
01:03 Yeah definitely, confidence. Every season is always high, it's just what happens throughout that season injury wise and things can change but I feel like we're in a good place at the moment and really excited for what this season can bring.
