Transcript

00:00 I'm joined by Niranda's John Horne after he took out his first ESA medal tonight.

00:05 John, you must be pretty happy with that.

00:07 Yeah, absolutely stoked.

00:09 You've had a pretty dominant season. Did you go in expecting there might be a chance?

00:13 Nah, not really. I never go and play the season thinking you're going to win something like this.

00:19 I've had a few good games and it's good.

00:24 I know you're all about the team performance, but it must be pretty nice to see some of the great players that have won ESA medals.

00:29 Yeah, it's really good to be sketched into history.

00:34 What's your focus now? Obviously you're straight through to the grand final. Are you ready for that?

00:39 Yeah, just get the body right and skills on point and hopefully we can get the job done.

00:45 There's been no secret to your form this season?

00:47 Nah, not really. Just pre-season and trying to get some consistent footy going.

00:53 It seems like a pretty good vibe out at Narrandah, winning a lot of awards for the club and a lot of finals. Is that what you think?

01:01 Yeah, the club is obviously in a pretty good space at the moment.

01:08 Thanks man.
