Transcript
00:00I really want to thank everyone that's come along to pay their respects today and I'd
00:05like to reiterate, you know, the Hayes family together with the Ballarat Redeemed Cricket
00:10Club greatly appreciate the support, compassion and love that they and we've received in the
00:16last few days.
00:19And although we and the whole cricket community are hurting, Jayden would definitely be telling
00:26us let's just get on with it.
00:28He was big on moving forward tickets.
00:32So as a club, you know, we'll stand together, we'll support each other and every day we'll
00:40try and make this club everything that Jayden wanted it to be.
00:45A strong, successful club that plays hard but mostly win, lose or draw, sticks together.
00:54Speaking of sticking together, Akes mentioned it and so did Paul, the word glue.
00:59I've spoken to a lot of people in the last few days and I've heard that word a lot, glue.
01:09Tickets was the glue for many reasons.
01:11I think the most important reason was that he just loved competing, competing with his
01:17best mates as a team and team was everything to him.
01:24When I look at these heartbroken men in front of me that battled side by side with him every
01:29week, I see glue because you're all the reason that we use that word, glue.
01:38You all stick together and you all look out for each other regardless of the situation
01:44and regardless of the outcomes.
01:48And that's what we're going to do, we're going to continue to do it, we're going to stick
01:52together and we're going to look out for each other together as a team, as a club and more
02:01importantly as a family, mighty Two Swords family.
02:06Can we all please just stay standing while we do a minute's silence.
02:36Can we all please just stay standing while we do a minute's silence.
