00:00 I'm joined by Dom Occapinti ahead of his Warrnambool Seahawks comeback on the weekend in CBL.
00:04 Dom, you looking forward to it?
00:05 Looking forward to it, mate.
00:07 It should be good.
00:08 We've got a great group of boys and it should be fun.
00:10 How do you reckon you guys get?
00:12 It's a pretty young group.
00:13 You're one of the older fellas at 22.
00:14 22 now, all the others are in their teenage years, so you've got to keep up with them.
00:19 But it should be fun.
00:20 They're all a good group of boys, so I hope they'll go all the way.
00:24 Do you reckon there's a good chance to do that this year?
00:26 Definitely.
00:27 We've got a lot of talent and I might not have too much hype, but we'll run the talk.
00:33 And you've had a few years off, have you?
00:35 Five years or so off?
00:36 Yeah, about four years off of basketball.
00:39 So it should be good to get back into it and see where it goes and hopefully maybe Big B next season.
00:47 Did you miss it though in that time?
00:48 100%.
00:49 So it'll be good to be back.
00:51 And it was Tim that brought you back?
00:53 Well, yeah, not necessarily, but Tim did mention a few times, you know, he can't play CBL.
00:57 So it definitely helped him being the head coach and everything.
01:01 So you can say that, yeah.
01:03 And you love being a part of the Warrnambool Seahawks club?
01:05 Definitely.
01:06 Great team, great organisation.
01:08 Been through it since under 12, so it should be fun.
01:12 Good luck for Ararat on the weekend.
01:13 Thank you.
