Tim Watson

I mean, I'm always fascinated.

Everyone talks about how brutal Ross is and how difficult he is.

And it's amazing how many of his former players actually reconnect with him and go back and work for him.

So he can't be all that bad.

And I've probably had a number of times over my career where I really felt that.

And yeah, I think sometimes what you see from the outside isn't necessarily the true reflection of the person that he is.

And to that end, the team, I thought the performance against Sydney was, I can't say that I've watched or commentated on every single game you've played, but I've watched most of them.

I thought your game against Sydney was as good as you've played all year.

And then you franked that form the following week, last week against the Giants.

Has it been a bit more attacking over the last six weeks, would you say, Lenny?

But, you know, we think we're sort of in a good position to attack the second half of the year.

So we're all, you know, supporters are in a hurry.

You go and make a lot of noise in the off-season of TDK and Soss and Liam Ryan and Flanders came as well.

Our expectations and the reality, I mean, it takes a bit of time to settle into a new environment.

I think Silvani's had a fantastic year.

TDK's getting there and Liam Ryan is just blowing everyone away.

And Lenny, Liam Ryan, we listened to Simo the other day.

He obviously coached him over the West Coast Eagles.

He said that they used to incentivise him sometimes and tell him that he didn't have to do recovery if he kicked five goals.

Have you been able to unlock all this with Liam?
