It's just, it's remarkable.

Now, on the back of that, the hope now is that it's enough or it's been enough to go to full, like, distance and actually get to a World Cup because if you look at what this, if the lads do it and they're in such a good position to actually do this now, it will effectively be, Joe, five wins on the spin where they cannot, like, drop a point and they are that close to achieving it now.

It's like, and this is Damon's analogy as well.

You know, you're on a golf course and your first nine is dreadful.

Indo Sport

And what is so unique about this playoff is effectively you normally go up against, in a playoff, the team twice.
