sometimes football clubs are not the nicest place to be around.
And I just, I think we had a lot of great, you know, coaches and leaders around the football club that, and Mark Thompson, again, I've spoken a lot about him today.
He was really great win or lose saying, I want the week to look the same.
And I want you to keep your heads up.
When we don't win a game, it's a learning opportunity.
And when we do win a game, it's a learning opportunity as well.
And, you know, I'm just, I'm so, I was so fortunate to play under such a great coach like that.
you know, in my first nine years at an AFL club.
And he taught me so much over that time.
When I first started, I mean, I'm showing my age here, but I was drafted in 2001, first season 2002.
But at that time, you know, you train twice and you plan the weekend.
So I was surfing four hours a day.
Really?
Yeah, I can actually still remember my first year.
Yeah.
Going out for a four-hour surf.
I didn't have my license at the time because I was 17 and Paul Chapman was picking me up to take me into training and I stayed out too long and actually missed him and ended up missing that training session.
I had to get up in front of the group and apologize for not making it.
They said, what were you doing?
I said, I was out surfing and I've just lost track of time.
