00:11 And I think in a split second she just lost her emotions.

00:17 She's the sweetest person I know.
00:20 And, yeah, then things happen like that and you can't change it anymore.
00:24 So it's a huge lesson for her to learn.
00:27 But of course it's not something that she really did on purpose.
00:32 That sort of emotion that just kind of lasts a couple of seconds
00:36 and then it's about just being logical and moving on to the next thing.
00:40 I have a lot of faith in my teammates, a lot of trust in my teammates.
00:44 And I think their quality, experience, resilience,
00:48 all the characteristics you need for a winning team, I think they showed tonight.
00:52 And then, yeah, I've not really spoken to LJ yet.
00:56 I'm sure she'll be disappointed but yeah we stick together as a team.
