00:00Joined by star Northern Raiders recruit Jack Burnham, back for another year mate, you looking forward to it?
00:04Yeah, ready to go, excited to go. We've got a great group of boys at Burnham, so it'll be an exciting season.
00:11Yeah, so you're excited by the team at hand, you've got a few new faces?
00:14Yeah, a few new faces. There's a lot of talent there in the team, so hopefully we can work together and do well.
00:20And you've got a new role this year?
00:22Yeah, a bit of coaching on the side, me and Jimmy. So obviously at the minute we're just working together and trying to get the boys improving as the year goes on.
00:33And how was your year back home?
00:35Yeah, it went pretty well. I don't know Kia personally, but the team should have done a bit better I believe.
00:41We had a great set up and a great team, just couldn't get the ball to the line in the end.
00:46And what are the expectations? I know it's early for this year for the team?
00:50Yeah, it's early. Obviously last time it was a lot of one-day cricket, this time it's all two-day cricket.
00:56So it'll be a bit of a change for me at the beginning, but I reckon we've got high expectations.
01:02Everyone's pumped, so we'll see how it goes and hopefully we can get there.
01:06And you had a pretty good season last time you were here, how many runs can we expect from you this year?
01:10We'll see, we'll see. I hope to do well, but yeah, we'll see.
01:14And is there anyone, I know you probably haven't been here that long yet, but is there anyone we should watch out for from your side?
01:20Maybe a youngster?
01:22So Jake Lowe, he obviously played here last year. He's a decent cricketer, Fishwick.
01:28And then there's a couple of youngsters coming through who hopefully will do well.
01:32And all two-day cricket this year, you looking forward to that?
01:35Yeah, hopefully it's exciting because if you get going as a batsman, you can really cash in and bat long and get big runs.
01:42So I'm excited.
01:43And are you excited to be back in Warrnambool? The weather's been pretty good, I'm sure, since you've been back.
01:46Yeah, I brought the sunshine with me, so hopefully that continues.
01:50But yeah, it's nice to be back and hopefully we get off to a good start.
01:54Sounds good, good luck for the season.
