And, you know, like every World Cup, there's different teams and different continents, different styles of football.

And, you know, the same way that it's gearing up as a massive game for us, it's exactly the same for Paraguay, I think.

you know, the boys can take real, real confidence and I think from that first game against Turkey and I think there's a real clarity in what they do and a real identity as a team and I think if, you know, they can hold on to that and be on the front foot and really get after them then I think we can put on a really good performance and get ourselves

So we're obviously in a decent position in the group anyway.

So yeah, I'm really looking forward to it.

Yeah, massively.

I think Beach is...

Beach is a really good example of it.

And I think, you know, I think if you look back at guys like Conor Metcalf, Aidan O'Neill, who were at the club a little bit before my time, I think it's a really good example of players that, you know, have come up through City and have not just done well enough to get an initial move or done well enough to get a little bit, you know, have one or two good seasons.

They're at a level where they can really go on and have long careers at good clubs and

You know, in the case of Aidan and Connor, they're two guys that have gone over to Europe and they've stayed over there and they've got second moves.

And Beachy, you know, in the space of a year or two, has gone from being second search horse keeper at Melbourne City to now holding his own on the world stage.

So I think it's a real testament to the type of players and people that get developed at the club.

But I think you look at Aziz and Lex and two at the opposite ends of the spectrum.

And I think their role in, you know, I think to when Beachy came through and,

and the older boys and someone like Jamie Young and how the environment really helped Beachy to be able to take that next step and now go out and do what he's doing on the world stage.

Yeah, look, I think we've had this chat a lot after, you know,

A lot of the tournaments recently for Australia, especially the World Cups, have been quite successful.

Obviously, we won the Asian Cup with Ange.

I think there's always been that yearning for it to then take off in the country afterwards.
