00:00 First defeat of the season, Bryn, sum up your thoughts on it.
00:03 Not an ideal game, we chased the game in large parts of it, never really got as much control of the ball as we'd like to have
00:10 and probably didn't turn over as much of their kick outs as we wanted to but luck, a lot of fresh boys there, a lot of exposure against good teams
00:17 maybe it was never going to be perfect but that's the lessons you have to learn and hey luck, still have two more games to play
00:25 and I suppose if you win one of them you'll probably be in the league final again so not the end of the world, we're probably in a position where we can try players
00:31 and I suppose not many teams have that luxury so it's all about exposure and trying to get as many boys and grow the panel as much as possible
00:38 so luck, we'll have a look at it and take some positives away from it but ultimately you do want to keep winning all the time and that's just where we're at.
00:46 I suppose the seven changes reflects the fact that you've played so well and you do have that wee cushion, do they allow you to change things up when you need to?
00:52 Aye but luck, you can say it's a cushion but ultimately you still want to come and give a football and play and you try and mix and match your style of play
01:00 because certain players play a different way so luck, it's just not our day to day but I suppose it wasn't too difficult of a defeat you know.
