I think, yeah.

Yeah.

I mean, we're, we're really disappointed with the outcome.

Um, there's no doubt about that.

Um, I think it would seem pretty clear that there's been a misunderstanding here.

Um, I know I certainly have misheard many things in my life, but I think, um, it w it was pretty clear when watching the footy on Sunday night, you know, there was, um, Zach and Ollie were obviously mystified at why a 50 meter penalty had been paid.

Um,

Zach obviously didn't interview immediately post-game.

He didn't know at that point in time what the allegations were and he was pretty clear about, you know, what he'd said.

And then Zach and Ollie obviously gave that evidence again last night.

And I hear the point that there was some slight discrepancies, but...

These guys are playing a highly competitive game of football.

And when it's, when it's come out of Zach's mouth, he's not thinking anything of it because he knows he hasn't done anything wrong.

So I think for a tribunal to find, to be, to be confident enough to find that all

All of those things don't point to the fact that the words weren't said.

Yeah, really disappointed.

Yeah, I have.

Look, we just had a good chat and I think, you know, consistent with he made a very short statement, but he's really disappointed.

And I think, unfortunately, you know, the weight of evidence, which was in his favour, doesn't seem to have carried the day here.

And, you know, that's concerning.
