00:15 So it's nice that it's finally here
00:17 to come to this stadium and kind of have the realization
00:21 that we really have brought the Women's World Cup
00:24 to Australia is a really proud moment for all of us.
00:27 But at the moment, we're just excited.
00:29 We've been ready to go all week.
00:30 So we can't wait to get started tomorrow.
00:32 - Yeah, we spoke about that, Sam and me coming up.
00:36 It felt a bit unreal.
00:38 It's actually happening tomorrow.
00:39 All the prep work that we've done for years,
00:41 all the days of hard work,
00:42 and now it's finally coming together in 24 hours.
00:46 So a good night's sleep now and then off we go tomorrow.
00:48 I can't wait.
