00:00Mitch has come through our traineeship program and he's been fully on the road now for probably
00:05over 12 months, isn't it Mitch? So down at Kingston full-time now on the road working with clients
00:10and doing very well. So Mitch's first time selling in a bigger store sale in Strath today
00:15and did a very good job. Yeah I found it quite good, like a fair bit of competition on the
00:20on the steers and selling them. The heifer is probably a bit tougher but still yeah, I'm okay.
00:25And why do you see that maybe the heifer job is a bit tougher today Ben?
00:28Um probably just lighter, lighter heifers really about it that would sort of go on the grass and
00:33probably quality was a little bit mixed which sort of didn't help but anything that was heavier
00:37feedable on the heifer side of things and especially sort of grass steers or
00:41or heavier feeder steers were probably firm to a touch here on last sale.
