00:00Yeah, he's been training really well. I've had him for just a couple of days now and
00:06his professionalism around the game. He's been just how he hit me up with so many questions.
00:14Even if he can latch on to a breakdown on the ground, like little detail to big things.
00:20I think you've seen him play in Origins, you've seen him play in the top level rugby league.
00:26Even though it's a different game, the translation of how he competes is there.
00:34Physically he's there, he's ready. Even as a 21-year-old, he reminds you bits and pieces
00:40of Izzy from when I played with Izzy in Japan. So I spoke to Izzy about him a lot and they're
00:47close as well. So I know he's keen to get his hands on a Test jersey and play footy.
00:54I think he'll be ready. He's a footy player at the end of the day.
00:57He backs himself, which is what you want. So his attention to detail is really good
01:01because he wants to learn the game more, know his role really well and execute it,
01:06especially on the Test flights. So I'm excited for him.
