00:00Been enjoying these first three weeks and just getting back into it and sort of using the

00:05foundation that I built last year to build on and yeah just ripping with the lads and it's

00:11been good to be back in full training again. It's nice to feel like a full-time player.

00:17Yeah definitely yeah and just be involved in everything and not have to sit out many drills

00:22and things like that so it's been good to just be back in around the boys and

00:27and yeah ripping into pre-season. And you're obviously in pretty good shape,

00:31I think you've put a few kilos on since you last played. Yeah put a little bit of weight on

00:35and got fitter as well obviously in the year off that's all I could sort of do so

00:40use that to my advantage and now it's about nailing the rugby and

00:45building back the contact and that sort of thing so yeah it's been good.

00:50And we've got a game coming up in a couple of weeks, Boxing Day against Wakefield here at

00:54Headingley, could we see you running out in that one? Yeah definitely that's the target. I'm all fit

00:59and doing everything in training so that should be hopefully the first game back. And it'll be

01:05exciting obviously to finally have a game to look forward to. Yeah obviously it's been February last

01:10year since I last played so it's jumping at the bit to get a game and get back flowing with the
