It's in our 11th season now, and I just think this is going to be a huge opportunity to, I guess, launch the season on August 1st and to show the talent that we've got, not only in our Australian team, but the Irish.

There's 46 Irish players on this now.

They've come across and...

just added to our game, the speed, the flair.

And, of course, the chaos that they bring makes our game better.

So, no, I'm really, really excited about it and, of course, privileged to play alongside some of the best.

Yeah, no, it is the Aussie rules.

We're playing with the Sherin, so it'll be the first time ever that an international rules game is played with the Aussie rules.

So, no, I'm really excited about this.

I'm sure the Irish wanted to do a little bit of a Gaelic hybrid, but bad luck.

Oh, they are so good.

Dana Finn, one of the names.

She's a Carlton Blues player.

Anya McDonald, Hawthorne, Aisling McCarthy, Freo.

They've all won Best of Ferris in 2025.

So we have some incredible Irish talent in our game.

And the Aussies are going to be cut out.

I don't know what the water is over there, but they are so speedy, these Irish players.

Every time they come over...

They're going to be running rings around us and probably playing a bit of chaos footy.
