00:00Paddy, clearly sort of finished what was a crazy game. What's your initial reaction?

00:06Yeah, I'll take a bit of time to digest that one now. I thought we played really well.

00:10I thought, firstly I thought it was a really exciting game of football. I think people

00:14enjoyed it, but it's helter-skelter, it's ferocious, there's lots of turnovers, there's

00:19lots of scores. I thought we'd got ourselves in position there when Shane scored the goal,

00:24we were three up and thinking right, we're in a spot now, but how we ended up losing

00:28that game, I still don't know.

00:29Is that the frustration? Because if you took away the last 90 seconds of that game, it

00:33was a hugely encouraging display.

00:34Oh, I think there's massive improvement from last week. It really is only our second competitive

00:37game under the new rules, which is fair enough. It's going to take a lot of time to adjust.

00:42The performance today was way, way better than it was last week. I think we got a lot

00:45of things right, but ultimately we shipped five goals and you can't ship that sort of

00:51scores in a game and expect to win it, and then we were punished.

00:55Plenty of learnings for next week, well for two weeks now.

00:57Oh, definitely. I think it'll be stronger. It'll be tough on the boys today, they felt

01:01they could be good at something out of that match. But no, we've got plenty of work on

01:04now too, but we're learning all the time, we're learning how to adapt to the new rules

01:08and we're getting the other players better as well.

01:10Brilliant.
