00:00 Thanks for joining us Tom here at Allensford Training. You've been at the club for a couple

00:04 of years, a uni student at Deakin. Can you tell us how you got involved at the Cats?

00:08 So I had a mate who played at the club and he convinced me to come down. It had been

00:13 a few years since I'd played footy so I was keen to get back into it and it seemed like

00:17 the perfect club for me just because I already had a mate here and he helped me transition

00:22 in pretty easily.

00:24 And you're studying marine biology, can you tell us about that?

00:26 Yeah, so I'm in my third year of marine biology now and it's been a lot of fun. A bit challenging

00:31 at times but it's been good and Deakin here is a pretty good spot for it, especially with

00:37 the research boat and all the options they have available for you so it's been good fun.

00:44 And what role has Tim Noel got you playing for the Cats this year?

00:48 So I've been playing a tagging role along with Lockie Reid. I've just been running and

00:54 trying to minimise the impact of some of the better players on the opposition.

00:58 Alright, thanks very much.

01:00 All good.

01:00 for me.
