Yeah, probably.
Just.
But Ross was...
Oh, that's actually a great question because early days, Ross, there was a lot of tough love but there was also a bit of cuddly Ross as well when I was at Freo and our relationship is unbelievable.
I still catch up with him a couple of times a year and what he did for me as a young player developing, I think I'm the player I am because of him as well.
He developed
me really well and my competitiveness and appetite for the ball and the contest and whatnot.
A lot of that was due to Ross and the way that he taught me how to play the game along with a couple of assistants at Freo and one in particular is Brett Kirk.
He was so good for me early in my career and
set me up to have success too.
So I'm very lucky I've had both Chris and Ross.
Yeah, I don't really feel like my body's slowing down at all.
And for me, as long as that's the case and mentally I feel fresh and
want to be the best I can be and improve my teammates as well and have that competitive edge.
I don't really want to put a limit on it, but I feel like I could easily play for three or four more seasons at a higher level.
I think you're seeing in the competition, guys are playing for longer.
There's a lot more sports science around recovery centres.
I think in general, younger people are living a lot healthier, so no reason I can't play for three or four more years.
Yeah, it does.
I do still think about it a little bit.
