00:00 I'm comfortable in the knowledge that we can deal with the league.
00:05 But I also know that the season is on the come to give us a tough start,
00:12 when I want it to be a really aggressive start.
00:14 We've got another seven days or so to come out of the window as strong as we possibly can,
00:21 and then we get to work.
00:23 - You envisage more signings? - Yeah, of course.
00:25 - How many more do you think? - As many as possible.
00:28 I'm realistic, me and Prince I speak all the time,
00:32 we have the same opinion on things, we get that.
00:35 But there's always restrictions, so we're working really hard,
00:40 as we possibly can with what we've got, but we know what we want.
00:45 It's a case of trying to get in front of it, get in front of it, have a archery.
00:49 Big start for us, yeah, big start for us.
00:52 Obviously, you imagine again if we could have got that over the line before the deadline on Friday,
00:56 the difference again today, because Sam is further on than Oli McBurnie in terms of his season,
01:01 he has not diminished his control over the disc.
01:04 Yeah, definitely.
01:06 Listen, you think about the opportunity and exposure that Will and Benny are getting,
01:11 it's fantastic for them.
01:13 But we know we can help them out, showcase them a lot better
01:17 if they've got a bit more help and experience around them.
01:20 One of those boys playing at the top of the lower mat to start with,
01:23 they play often. Likewise, if both boys were coming on with their pace
01:27 and then there were 20 minutes left, can we change the game or see a game out?
01:31 But at the minute, in the first three games, they've had to do the donkey work,
01:36 they've had to hold the ball up and they've had to go for it.
01:38 It's been a tough job for them.
