00:00 Yeah, Jordy got through training well. He's got a spring in his step, he looks like he's got some power back in his running and he'll be available.
00:07 There could be some changes, yeah, we've got a few guys that are obviously with concussions that will be out, Jack Bartel and Harvey Harrison sort of got through training, we've still got to weigh up whether he's going to be available or not.
00:18 Yeah, we'll have to have a couple of force changes, yeah.
00:21 Tom Mitchell about to reply or come off the track pretty early? No, Tom won't play. Tom's got that foot tissue that's still just lingering around so he won't be playing.
00:30 Good to see Chequers gets through training, it looks like he's getting closer to returning, well maybe next week we'll see how that goes.
00:35 What we're doing right now is we're finding a way to score. We're scoring nearly every time we go, every second time we go inside 50 which is a high percentage.
00:44 So it's not so much the size of the person, it's the person that plays the role there and our forwards, Scott Sheldon, have done an incredible job of getting the ball to ground and they're one of the best teams in the top nine now, ground balls inside 450 at pressure.
00:56 So most parts of the game are sound, it's just about getting the ball to ground and having the right magnets to make that feature for us.
