00:00That's our goal now, we move on.
00:02And a 75-year-old goal, since first grade has taken home.
00:05How do you kind of, I guess, imagine the bow out of your head as the pressure?
00:09Yeah, look, I think the pressure to make it alone was right here.
00:12I think we handled the pressure well.
00:14We knew we owned this pressure.
00:16We know we've got to win it all, and that's our goal.
00:18And a pretty big component in make wins.
00:21You know, you burst them last weekend.
00:23What's kind of at the top of your head?
00:24Without giving too much away, of course.
00:26No, look, I was also last on their phenomenal team, and we know that we've got to be on all day.
00:29I think we learned a lot of lessons last week against them, and now we've got a blueprint.
00:32We're going to go in there confident.
00:33I know that, you know, all the pressure's on them.
00:35You know, they're defending for titles.
00:37They touched us up by 40 points.
00:38So, you know, we look to them.
00:40It's theirs to lose, though.
00:42What's this mean to your family?
00:43It means everything.
00:44It means everything.
00:45You know, I broke down at the end there.
00:47We've worked so hard as a club, so hard.
00:49We're a small committee.
00:50The volunteers are unbelievable.
00:52The fans are unbelievable.
00:53The boys are unbelievable.
00:54To do this for the community, to be in the Grand Final for the first time in 60 years,
00:59it's something that I've always dreamed to be a part of.
01:01And it makes me even hungrier now to make sure we go in and win it.
01:05Did you think it was possible this year?
01:06100 percent, I thought it was possible, you know.
01:08When I read that newspaper, and I think it was The Herald or whoever it was,
01:12tipped us 8th or 9th, you know, we laughed at it.
01:14We knew that they didn't know how hard we'd work and how hard we were willing to go.
01:17And at the end of the day, that's what it comes down to, what we're willing to do,
01:19what we're willing to do for this club and this community.
01:21What about the defence today?
01:22Your brother down the end there just had one of those last plays.
01:25Yeah, unbelievable.
01:26He's summing up and pushing, pushing, pushing.
01:28He'll keep giving for us.
01:29He's the epitome of what this club means.
01:31We're here for family, we're here for family.
01:34Cool, alright, let's leave it.
