It's all good.

Yeah, do you know what, John?

Obviously, I left Toronto last night quite late on.

I arrived in Vancouver early hours of the morning this morning over here.

And there's so many Australian football fans that I met in the airport when I was getting off the plane, getting the taxi over to the hotel, even arriving at the hotel over here.

So,

I think there's a huge, and it was unexpected from my point of view, seeing the Australian fans, but a huge, huge amount of Australian fans that's here.

So I think we all know the way that Turkey travel.

Turkey will have a lot of fans in BC Place later on this evening.

So I'm really looking forward to it.

I think across the course of the day, seeing a lot of the teams travelling,

I mean, of course, we're looking at the set-up, the sides, but I think it's starting to gain a little bit of momentum now.

Anyone's got the thoughts on how this World Cup's going to go, but I think it was quite flat the first day, watching Mexico in their opening game and seeing how they played.

Then going into Czechia against South Korea, it was quite flat.

Yesterday was great.

Honestly, I don't think there's been a better atmosphere yesterday

I mean, arguably ever in Toronto, seeing Canada against Bosnia yesterday, seeing the US last night, they've caught fire earlier on against Paraguay.

I'm expecting today to be great and I'm really looking forward to it, to seeing how this game's going.

And I think Turkey and Australia will be a great atmosphere come this evening.

Even going back, what, three and a half years ago now, four years ago in Qatar, John, all the talk around the issues that we all were reading and hearing around Qatar, the game took over.
