commendable thing if you if you got up and just carried on and you were seen as uh tough and resilient and and all those things because we did just didn't know. voice-verified

And there were you know I've I can remember a game, it was actually against North Melbourne Simo and and um I went to smother a ball from Wayne Swass and I knocked the ball out and his his boot swung through and and kicked me in the head. voice-verified

And went down and and sort of blacked out, got back up again and the trainer came out and voice-verified

And just instinctively I said, no, no, no, I'm all right, I'm all right, and pushed him away and then looked up and I had no idea which way we were kicking. voice-verified

And I can remember thinking in my own head, I know what I'll do, I'll be smart here. voice-verified

I'll look at the players and I'll look to see who's the full forward and who's the full back and that'll help me. voice-verified

I looked at a player and I had no idea who he was. voice-verified

I just couldn't I didn't even know who he was. voice-verified

So I had to yell out to the trainer and say, Come and take me off because voice-verified

I just didn't know where I was or what I was doing. voice-verified

And yet th my first thought was, get away, no, I'm good. voice-verified

I can stand up so I can play. voice-verified

And and that was a mentality that that endured for probably two thirds of my career, I reckon, until we started to understand the severity of what happens uh you know, short term and longer term. voice-verified

Mm. voice-verified

Tommy, can I give you some homework? voice-verified

Uh I I thought that when you when the player manager and the club sign a contract, they also sign a stat deck that says there are no other uh agreements or contracts or side agreements in place. voice-verified

So if that's the case, yeah. voice-verified

So so voice-verified

Yeah, it was it was super impressive and I thought once again Harris Andrews was was the man who started it. voice-verified

I think he took four four intercept marks in the in the first quarter. voice-verified
