00:00It was a wonderful yarding of sheep. The guys that have put their ewes in here today did a great job.
00:06They presented a very good condition. As far as the sale went we were very, very pleased.
00:11A range of buyers from sort of the upper south east, one buyer from down the lower south east,
00:16through the mid north and also some interstate interests from Stoll and also from Wagga.
00:21So yeah, the sheep went far and wide and I think overall we're very, very pleased.
00:25Obviously I heard the word round table a lot, what was that about?
00:28Round table is a group of agents that we're involved with. It's about six and co.
00:32We've got a team of guys that's based through the eastern states. There's about six agencies involved.
00:37And yeah, like-minded guys that we conduct business with and market intelligence and that sort of thing.
00:42So obviously there was one from Wagga today. What's the conditions like where they are?
00:45Yeah, they're going really well. That was Riverina Livestock Agents, RLA.
00:49Yeah, they're having a really good season up there and obviously a close relationship with our guys
00:53and happy to back us and our stock and have supported us, which we really appreciate.
00:57And obviously you had a few dispersals today?
00:59Yeah, probably headlined by Roger and Gayle Jewels. They presented well.
01:04I think that was 74 kilos or something. Just crazy big and good and sold very well.
01:09I think it was 232, which yeah, they were just sheep you don't see.
01:13So a complete drop of them was really good. And a couple of others throughout the sale too,
01:17which you start buying dispersal sheep, you can buy with a bit of confidence they're going to be around for a while
01:22and give you a pretty good product at the other end.
01:27Yeah.
