00:00 No, good. I understood what he wanted from me straight away and he's always been very direct.
00:06 Every player knows what Sean wants from them and it's been really enjoyable to work with, a different environment.
00:12 And like I said in the first two games, I think I put massive steps into proving what sort of a player I am.
00:17 And like you just said, then I know I've got a lot more in me and hopefully that will come.
00:23 Just finally, I'll especially look at if you're in on Sunday, sorry, to walk out at your home ground as well.
00:28 I think it's the first time in a long time there's been an England or Great Britain game at Headingley.
00:32 Yeah, obviously it's going to be a massive crowd as well and that's what all the lads want.
00:37 Playing international rugby, we want big crowds and especially here at Leeds.
00:40 It'll be special personally if I'm in that side.
00:43 And we need that win and we want that win and to make it 3-0 will be massive.
00:50 How do you feel it's gone so far?
00:52 I've just really enjoyed every minute of it. It's gone well.
00:56 I know I've got things I can still work on. I'm still 23.
00:59 It's taken a long time to get to this point. I've been through some tough injuries and some tough times,
01:05 but I've stuck at it and that's something that I'll always do. I'll never give up.
01:08 And I'm just looking forward to what's to come.
01:11 I've got another massive game this week. We want to win that, like I said, 3-0.
01:15 And then going into next year, full pre-season behind me and hopefully improve a lot more again.
01:20 How physical has it been from a player's point of view?
01:22 Sean's mentioned it from his aspect. Is it as tough as you expected?
01:30 I didn't know what to expect that first game. I'd not played for a month.
01:35 I knew it was going to be tough. I've watched international rugby. I've watched it.
01:39 Most physical game I've ever been involved in.
01:41 But it's a challenge. Those are big boys,
01:44 but we've come together and we've put our bodies in front of them and we've stopped them.
01:49 We dominated them in two tests and that's what we're looking to do again.
