It's understanding and talking to a player, just pleading to them, saying this is what we need if we want success.

You'll realise straight away if that player wants to do it or not.

And if he doesn't, you put him into the seconds and fulfil that role with someone who's capable of doing it.

And if they can't do it in a year or two, then guess what?

We just don't believe that they're a team-first mindset just yet.

Our leadership portfolio is run by Luke Hodge.
