00:00How difficult a decision was it to come out? I mean I know you've only just retired but to come out to carry on for one more year?
00:06Well, Phil Daly rung me, I'd say maybe two months ago, he's listening in the background now.
00:11Two months ago he rang me and said there's a game, an hybrid game, Rob Burrow, Ed, Doddie Weir, all involved, MND and I suppose it was an easy sell wasn't it?
00:26He did also say that Danny Maguire will be your half-back partner, so that was also an easy sell, I never got a chance to play with Danny.
00:33So I suppose straight away I just said look, I'll do it.
00:38And look, there's been some momentum building and it sounds like it's going to be a great day Sunday, there's some great players from both courts.
00:48I've seen the Danny Cipriani interview yesterday which was fantastic, I'm a big fan of his, I've met him a couple of times, had a coffee with him down in London and I've been a big fan of his.
01:01So going up against him will be good and just really looking forward to the occasion, Sunday should be a great day.
01:09There's plenty of tickets left so everyone get down and support a great cause and hopefully it can be the first of many.
