00:15 so I've been enjoying it.
00:16 And you're excited for the season ahead, a lot of good talent?
00:19 Yeah I'm excited, I'm ready to see what we can do, I'm looking forward to it, you know

00:29 Sounds good.
00:30 And you're from LA?
00:31 Yeah from Los Angeles, California.
00:32 And you said there's some similarities, obviously not as big here.
00:37 Yeah not as big but you know the heat, the beach, the water, basic, you know the only
00:43 difference is probably the driving and the Vegemite.
00:47 You haven't tried Vegemite yet?
00:48 No.
00:49 Do you plan to?
00:51 No.
00:52 And everyone's been pretty welcoming?

01:00 is that true?
01:01 Yes, I have a point to prove, you know, I want to get out here and show that I can actually
01:06 help a team be successful.
01:08 And have you been given the opportunities in the past that you would have liked or are
01:12 you getting more of an opportunity here?
01:14 I'm getting more of an opportunity now but it's really for me about the competition and
01:18 having fun but what comes with that is you know getting some wins and enjoying life in
01:25 its presence.
01:26 You said you're going to try and convert some Aussie rules players to basketball?
01:31 Yeah, no more Australian football, we're going to stay with basketball.
