Look at you making up stories.
But yeah, like, because I look back at, you know, there's some of the footage of, and the big one is Paulie with the fear of God line, you know?
And like when you're sitting on your ass and on your couch, it seems ridiculous, doesn't it?
You're there like, oh my God, this is awful.
But when you're just about to go out for kickoff, if he doesn't, if he's not doing that, I'm there like...
Oh Jesus, I'd hate that.
I'd hate an old headbutt before you even go out.
But there is funny moments like that, isn't there?
When people do, like I remember John Fogarty, who's obviously legend in terms of his coaching ability, gone off on the lines.
But when he played with us with Con, he was like, he is an awful messer.
And he, a bit like you, he saw the dressing room as an opportunity to have a bit of crack.
So he'd say to me on the kind of Thursday, he'd be in for Frankie Sheehan playing hooker.
And normally he'd play seven if we weren't.
He was an unbelievable player, both as a hooker or a seven.
But Frankie was out for a while and Foggs was going in hooking.
But he was there like, I'm going to quote Braveheart in the dressing room.
And I'm there like, what?
He was there before the match.
I'm going to make a William Wallace bit of a speech, see if he can cop it.
And like, you'd forget about it then.
