Transcript

00:00Thanks for joining us, Nate and Josh. We're here at Warrnambool Training ahead of the

00:04Grand Final this weekend. The Blues going for back-to-back, but it'll be both of your

00:08first time in the Under 18 Grand Final. Can you explain that?

00:11Yeah, obviously missed the last couple of years of the ACL, so I had to get a re-eco

00:16last year, but no, it's good to finally be back and especially playing in the Granny

00:21this week against South.

00:23Yeah, well I just really missed because I wasn't good enough. I was probably a bit young.

00:28Yeah, I don't know, just great to have another chance, try and go again.

00:35And can you tell us a bit about your own roles in the team?

00:39Yeah, I play on the wing, just sort of keep my width really. That's about it. Just try

00:44and get on the end of a couple of kicks, but that's about it.

00:48Yeah, I just play full-back. I try and just stop whoever's kicking goals really. Pretty

00:54simple job.

00:56What do you think each other does well for the team?

00:58Find space and being a lead kick. No, he's a good defender. He's just pressure. He's

01:04quick. He just does everything he needs to really do.

01:08And what would it mean for you boys to win a Premiership this weekend with your mates?

01:12No, it would mean the world, especially coming from an ACL. With a few of my best mates,

01:18it should be good.

01:20Yeah, I've been pretty much waiting for this moment ever since the day I heard I was getting

01:24dropped last year. It would mean everything to me just to get another shot at it and see

01:29if we can pull it off in the end.

01:31And you've got a pretty strong team. Is there any team-mates you think could have a big

01:35say on proceedings on Saturday?

01:37Yeah, I reckon Sam Nicholas. He's a gun.

01:41Superman?

01:43Yeah, Jadon Wells. Eamon Radley, he's a big-time player.

01:49Barnsey?

01:50Yeah, if you go after Barnsey, they're all very good.

01:54Borgs too?

01:55No, the few Rebels boys, which is good to have a lead to have back. Massive role in the team.

02:00Alright, well best of luck boys.

02:02Thank you very much.
