I did.

And I remember a game, clearly.

We were playing for New Zealand, actually, and we were getting hammered by Aussie.

It was like 20-0 after about 30 minutes, and we're standing behind the post.

as a halfback, you've got to be the person with the strong voice to get the team around.

And I'd been lucky enough to play with Gene Namu, who was strong voice, and Matthew Ridge, very strong voice, and they weren't playing that game.

And Quentin Pongier just grabbed me by the shirt and he says, I need you to effing well sort this team out, get us around the field.

Either I don't do it and get a hiding from Quinton, or I do it and get his respect.

And that was a moment for me.

That was a moment for me on the footy field where I went, shit, okay, I have to stand up here.

I knew what I had to do, but I just had to express it and just go, okay, stuff it, I'm doing it.

Yeah.

So it was Gary Freeman was the player we went away on a World Cup, who I took his spot.

got given an opportunity.

But the early year of 95, I got to play alongside Greg and learnt a lot from what he was about.

He was a class player, Greg Elizand, and what he'd done in the game.

And again, he was one of those players that you grew up looking up to and go, wow, you're playing alongside this guy.

And then

what you learn from them.

You don't get experience like that.
