We'll be going for everything this year and trying to compete and up just taking it game by game.

We're not silly either.

We'll look forward to the President's Cup, give that a right go.

Great game before a league campaign starts and then, you know, treaty live on TV, first weekend, then talk it.

I mean, it doesn't get better than that.

So really looking forward to it.

Oh yeah, look, there's an expectation on us all the time, and I think looking for the league and...

For everyone involved, it's a great first fixture.

There's a bit of storyline, his ex-team and stuff like that.

That's what you want.

I love that.

I love those games.

The expectation for me is always there when you play for Shells in every game.

We're a competitive group.

We're competitive in training.

When we rock up to the top of the first game of the season, of course, we're expected to win.

But as I said to you, some of our most difficult games last year were treaty with good players, obviously new management as well.

We'll give them the utmost respect, but we know that if we perform on our day, that'll be our main concern.

If we perform on our day, we're as good as anyone and we can beat anyone.

And I suppose that's our motivation over the next few weeks.
