00:00First pit!
00:05Yeah, I took two wickets that day.
00:09It was pretty low key, we just sort of went to the pub and that's about it, didn't we?
00:14I can't remember.
00:16We weren't fit enough to go anywhere else.
00:18Oh yeah, I think we might have been favourites, yeah.
00:23We had a pretty good even lot of players, like everyone could either bat or bowl pretty alright.
00:29It was pretty even overall.
00:32We batted low, we probably batted down to 10 or 11, didn't we?
00:37We batted right down and we had probably half a dozen bowlers that could handle themselves.
00:41It was a pretty good even side.
00:43I reckon I was battered at number 11.
00:46Yeah, I was 10.
00:47I think the best part of that was the clean spirit.
00:51We got on famously on and off the ground.
00:54We had a lot of pace in each other.
00:57Yep.
00:58We were never really beaten, were we?
01:00Sorry?
01:01Never really beaten.
01:03We had that sort of attitude.
01:05Yep.
01:08We always come back from it.
01:11It looked like we were going to do it.
01:13We always fought back.
01:15We played with the sisters for a while.
01:17We played in the grand final.
01:20And I heard we knew early in the inning plot.
01:24So, playing the candy with me runner.
01:26Yep.
01:27He ran me out when I was 96.
01:31I played with Calora.
01:33I won a premiership there.
01:35I won a premiership with Samuel.
01:38I won a premiership with the sisters.
01:40I think I won three premierships here.
01:43Well, there was no doubt that Robbie's obvious strength really opened up.
01:48I mean, he was pretty fast.
01:50But he was also a great hitter.
01:54I would come out of the school runs really quick.
01:56Yep.
01:57And it was that kind of play.
01:59I don't know.
02:00It was just an all-rounder.
02:01Yeah, it was an all-round bowler.
02:03Good keeper.
02:05But he was a bit unlucky not to keep that year because Robbie was a pretty good keeper, wasn't he?
02:09Yeah, he was.
02:10So, otherwise, they would have done it.
02:11So, yeah.
02:12And Bally, well, he's a great top order bowler.
02:20Yeah.
02:21Yeah.
