So there's there's a vast majority of of talent goes out of the game. voice-verified

So those that go to the AFL is a very, very small fraction of our talent. voice-verified

So there's there's bigger areas that clubs and counties can be trying to hold on to their talent. voice-verified

And I think it a lot of it comes back to what what are we offering? voice-verified

Like so take Kobe and voice-verified

Like what what could you have done there? voice-verified

He sound he's he looks like a guy that's is sort of he's he's his his his his his gaze is bigger than Cross Melana and Mayo. voice-verified

He's he's sort of a boy that wants to go and sample what the world has potentially to offer for him. voice-verified

But I I would be amazed if he doesn't come back at at some stage and he will have a career with Mayo again, but he's he'll have gone and taken that opportunity. voice-verified

And good luck to him. voice-verified

Do you know what I mean? voice-verified

And I I do I do draw the voice-verified

the line a little bit though at these sort of recruitment camps that are coming over. voice-verified

That's a little bit over the line uh in for my liking. voice-verified

But what do you do? voice-verified

You either let them in or you don't let them in. voice-verified

But again, I'm sure the GA policymakers are all looking at the the structures that they have. voice-verified

They don't really have because of the amateur status. voice-verified

ways to stop this, you know, and it's unless there is some sort of quasi semi professional or paid amateur status that the protects that or at least requires them to compensate the clubs or the counties for taking the talent. voice-verified

That that grinds on me. voice-verified
