00:00Max, it's been a long time since we saw you out on the field, but I understand you could be back out there before too long.
00:07Yeah, looking positive. I've been running for quite a while now in pre-season and hopefully back in full training with the squad soon, in a couple of weeks' time.
00:18And then obviously, I'd love to kick on from there to obviously play a lot of games this season.
00:24I think the reserve season starts in the spring, maybe March. Is that what the realistic aim is?
00:29Yeah, probably. Obviously, I'll need to get a decent bit of training under my belt before I start playing any games.
00:36I've not got any rugby load for quite a while, so I'll be back in training soon, but I'll probably have to stick at that for a few weeks before I go and play.
00:48It's obviously been a very long, tough two years. Nice to see some light at the end of the tunnel?
00:53Yeah, 100 per cent. Obviously, probably the most positive I've been in a while, having to actually see the finish line for the first time in a couple of years, but yeah, it was positive.
