I think too...
You know, there's just this real want to honour our legacy, the All Black legacy.
That All Black legacy was from all the people that had come before us.
But also, that legacy is also what people around the world, they don't even know about New Zealand, they know who the All Blacks are.
And that's the brand, you know.
So I think that's part of the reason why it feels heavy, is because we want to make sure we do that well for our country.
I think about all the skills and tools that we're working on in order for us to be able to handle these moments really well.
But, you know, there's nothing like actually being in it and actually having the opportunity to use these skills.
I think leading up to the game, just being in the environment, in the atmosphere.
Yeah.
It's quite draining as well.
So you're trying to stay as focused as you can without overthinking it, if that makes sense.
You're looking out the window and all you see is black jerseys everywhere.
And it's like that for the whole week.
And then on game day, as far as you can see, there's people everywhere.
So you're trying to keep your emotions down and try and not overthink things, but it's just human nature.
Yeah.
As we're going through the game, we're trying to apply being calm, being in the moment, keeping ourselves level.
Because it's the first time we've actually put this to the test, this is our first final, that doesn't always go...
I think, you know, when I look at a structure of a week, like if we break it down, like what a training week looks like, beginning of the week is about learning.
