00:02Yeah, definitely. We've got a lot of people, obviously, who live in Sydney now but are from this Hunter region,
00:06so it's cool for them to be able to get back home, and Newcastle is a second home to a lot of us.
00:11You know, a lot of family live around this area as well, so I'm sure there'll be, like, home crowd advantage as well, so yeah.
00:17How big a piece of the puzzle was that home crowd advantage or having a really strong backing behind you
00:24when you got up again? It was obviously a big challenge.
00:26Yeah, it was massive. I think it's always good, like, having that home crowd advantage.
00:32You know, the crowd really gets behind you, and you notice when you go overseas and play in different countries
00:36that, you know, the atmosphere that creates is, like, really something that we look forward to,
00:41so to have that here will be really exciting for us.
