00:00Yeah, I think that's right.
00:03To be fair, I thought overall a real solid professional performance.
00:07Started the game really well,
00:10you know, in terms of our intensity,
00:13breaking out of certain areas and then executing with two goals.
00:18And I think it's fair to say,
00:19you know, we managed the game extremely well today.
00:22Real professional performance.
00:25Tired legs out there coming out of a real busy schedule.
00:27We just managed the game really.
00:29I just felt the game was constantly in our hand
00:32and it always helps,
00:34obviously, with the two goals to make it feel like that.
00:36Yeah, nice early goal, isn't it?
00:38Another one for Josh Brownhill.
00:39He's got that knack, hasn't he,
00:40being in the right place at the right time?
00:42I think we've said that a lot this season,
00:44to be honest with you.
00:45So, if the ball goes in an area,
00:47Josh Brownhill seems to have got unbelievable habits of just being in there,
00:52really.
00:52So, another goal for him.
00:53He's been a driving force,
00:55really,
00:56and he's been critical for what we've done this year.
00:59And his goals have been massive for that.
01:02After the second,
01:03I said you managed the game and you never really looked at it.
01:05No, at that point,
01:06yeah, we managed the game.
01:08I think, you know,
01:09we then, obviously,
01:11was pretty solid,
01:13managed the game,
01:14was professional.
01:15There was a couple of other chances,
01:16open chances,
01:18which maybe we could have done a little better on.
01:21But overall,
01:23very pleased with how we managed the game,
01:25really,
01:25because I've been in the arena many times
01:27and played back-to-back games,
01:29or games every two or three days,
01:31and I had a feeling this was going to be a real test for us today,
01:35physically,
01:36just for the pure volume of games we've played.
01:40But we managed that really well.
