00:00 I've been umpire for 40 years and I just retired from playing and took it up and 40 years later
00:07 I still enjoy it and go into training and get good with the young fellas and so forth.
00:13 I was running one Saturday morning and Kenny Hammon who was a umpire, field umpire, seen
00:25 me running, he spun around and got me involved in the umpire and got me interested in the
00:32 umpire and we ended up going down and doing a practice match, Penguin versus South Burnie
00:38 and 40 years later I'm here.
