No, I think certainly back when Woosh was coaching, if the door was shut, you would never want to enter it.

Don't come in sort of five minutes before the meeting and start the door shut.

So, no, I'm a little bit more flexible in that, you know, provided most of the players, they might be getting some treatment or doing something around the football club.

So I'll always take that into account.

Yeah, no, they're gone.

Yep, yep.

Yeah, I think certainly with our warm, we try and make it as individualised as possible.

The ability for players to get prepared as well as they need.

They have their own

method to do that so whether some players are out on the ground for a long time, some players sit in the change rooms, some players do their mental prep at certain times of the warm-up so for me it's about individualising that and making sure that every player is aware of how they perform at their best and what they've got to do to perform at their best and we're pretty flexible with that.

We have our standardised time on the ground to do a warm-up and also team meetings but outside of that

You know, if they get there and one player comes to me and says, I don't want to go on the bus or, you know, I'll go a little bit later, I'm open to that as well.

I think the competition's been doing it for a little bit.

And every side has the way that they primarily play.

And they'll make tweaks to that.

But I think one thing we looked at towards the back in the last year was the ability to try and generate more speed on the ball and how we do that from a turnover situation.

And a lot of people are talking about the stand rule.

Our ability to try and open the ball up as quickly as we possibly can through those situations is really important.

But that doesn't mean as well that at times we want to try and

use an uncontested mark to shift the ball to try and get it into a better position to then try and open the game up.
