00:00Tell me what happened and what you think might have been the case.

00:04The game or me?

00:05You.

00:06Oh, potential busted arm, but we'll go get scans now and see.

00:10So what happened in the contest? Was it just someone fell in?

00:13It was just a standard ground ball. It was a pretty heavy hit.

00:16I think that big ruckman came in flying in, so, yeah.

00:20Your thoughts on the performance today?

00:23I mean, obviously yourself go it off,

00:25and yet you were right in that game to win it in the last few minutes.

00:28There's a little bit of a coat of varnish on the...

00:30Yeah, 100% has a bit of a turning point.

00:32But, yeah, super proud of the boys.

00:34We should take a lot of confidence.

00:35Melton in the yard stick for the competition,

00:37in a position to win the game at the end.

00:39Look, unfortunately we're 0-3, haven't got a win yet.

00:42But some really good performances against East and Melton

00:45show that we can match it.

00:47So there's 15 games still in the season to play.

00:50So, yeah, but in terms of the game,

00:52I think we probably just didn't commit to our method early enough.

00:54It probably took until three goals down to actually really commit

00:58and take some risks how we wanted to play.

01:00So we were a little bit safe early.

01:02A little bit of memory of what happened last year?

01:05Yeah, I think so.

01:06And probably just like...

01:07Didn't want to let the boat flow out?

01:08Yeah, and we just probably went to our shells a little bit.

01:10So, and it's understandable coming up against Melton

01:13for the boys to be a little bit conservative

01:14and not want to take too many risks early.

01:16But it's probably why we were down a little bit.

01:18So...

01:19Well, you've shown you're a 20-goal better side.

01:20I mean, what you did against East goals.

01:21Well, it is.

01:22I mean, let's be honest.

01:23Yeah.

01:24It is.

01:25We have.

01:26We've taken some big steps forward.

01:27Unfortunately, yeah,

01:29it just doesn't equate to premiership points at this stage.

01:31But the good thing is we get the crack at every side twice.

01:33And, yeah, there's 15 games to go this season.

01:36So that's sort of play.

01:37Are you the only casualty from today?

01:39I think so, yeah.

01:40We had a couple through the week that went down.

01:42So, yeah.

01:43You didn't have your full six team after that.

01:45No, we had to make six changes from the Ballarat side.

01:47So, Jed Hill broke his wrist during the week.

01:51Her training?

01:52Yeah, training.

01:53Yeah, Riley O'Keefe's knee.

01:55And a couple of injuries from Ballarat.

01:57How long was O'Keefe?

01:58Not sure yet.

01:59Has it been scanned yet?

02:00Nah, I think Monday.

02:01So, yeah.

02:02Okay, okay.

02:03Time?
