00:00 What amount of effort into going to schools, communities, and they must be so proud of you being the boys today.
00:05 What do you have to say about it?
00:07 Firstly, it's not effort.
00:09 We love doing it.
00:11 It's part of our role as a club.
00:14 The players buy into it and they know 100% that it pays back and it affects you winning on the field
00:20 and it affects the momentum behind the club, which is a snowball effect, I think.
00:26 You're not separate to the community.
00:27 You're not separate to the clubs, the schools, the charities.
00:31 You're part of it and anyone who plays at this club will understand that.
00:38 Unfortunately, I've got a group of players who don't believe it anyway.
00:42 We've got good people.
00:43 Most of them have come through.
00:46 I have a local club.
00:47 Every one of our players has come through a community club and a school.
00:50 So to think that they're separate to it is silly.
