It's something good to be able to reflect on when I've finished coaching here at the Swans. voice-verified

I found it a really interesting time. voice-verified

I mean, once I stood down at the end of 24, I think there was a number of things I was able to do, and one of the biggest things I was able to do was sit back and reflect on the previous years in the game and what it felt like, and to be able to actually sit down and put pen to paper and work with Glenn McFarlane and sort of reflect on that period of time, I felt it was really good. voice-verified

It was a good process to go through, something I wasn't prepared for, but the more I did it, the... voice-verified

the more things come flooding back. voice-verified

And it was a really reflective process. voice-verified

I found it almost therapeutic in a way. voice-verified

I guess probably the thing that struck me most was some of the biggest turning points in my life came from some setbacks that I had and whether they're injuries or, you know, different turning points in my life really sort of changed me and sent me on a different direction. voice-verified

And I found that really interesting when I look back on it was voice-verified

At the time when you're going through it, it can be really challenging and you can get caught up in the moment and start getting a bit of self-pity and worrying about things in your own world. voice-verified

But when you step back from things, often some turning points and significant turning points happen at those particular junctions in your life. voice-verified

And that's happened a number of times for me. voice-verified

Yeah, no, it does. voice-verified

I remember driving out as a 16-year-old, I had my mum next to me because I only had my L plates on back in 1987. voice-verified

And I looked in the rear vision mirror and I saw my family there and I thought, I wonder what's going to happen. voice-verified

I thought I might come back here in a couple of years. voice-verified

I thought I might last two years and be back on the farm again. voice-verified

But 39 years later, I'm still involved in the industry and I would never have dreamed that when I left the farm as a 16-year-old. voice-verified

Yes, it did. voice-verified

It happened in a rush. voice-verified
