00:00Yeah, I think that's probably been a big part of us to be honest. We've got a lot of clowns, a lot of people that like to have a laugh and whatnot.
00:07And Matty's like that, believe it or not. He gives that facade of a very serious coach, but when the cameras are away and we're all around each other, he's a good laugh.
00:15But then when it's time to work, we're good at hitting the switch and being serious and being professional.
00:21It's probably the way we play our rugby as well, mucking around in the sheds before, having a laugh and whatnot.
00:27But then as soon as the whistle goes, we just hit the switch and everyone does their job.
00:32Training days can be quite long and tiring. You do a field session for an hour and a gym session, but in between there's a lot of meetings and a lot that goes on.
00:40So it sort of just makes the day fun and put the ball down for a little bit and muck around.
00:46And then when it's time to train, we switch on and, you know, very professional.
