East Ballarat skipper Jake Eyers after his team's win over Darley

Transcript

00:00A long tough day, but at the end of the day it's a 70 run win, you'll take that any day of the week?

00:04Yeah we'll take it, we haven't really been travelling all that well, you know been hitting

00:08miss so you know any win's a win. Yeah, you say yeah you have been a bit hitting miss,

00:14what do you think that you put that down to, what's sort of? I don't know, maybe sides are

00:19you know fighting this out a little bit more maybe, we've sort of had a few people in and

00:24out throughout the year. You're more the hunters rather than the hunters now as well perhaps?

00:30Yeah that's obviously got a bit to do with it, I guess as you win, the more you win the more

00:34sides find out about you. Yeah exactly right mate, I'd be remiss to not ask a couple of

00:39incidents today, Harry got a bit up, maybe got a bit unlucky early, but maybe Dylan got a little

00:42bit unlucky at the end there too, so that's just cricket isn't it? That's just cricket,

00:46you take the good with the bad, what do you do? By the time you finish playing you're on the end of

00:52good ones, you're on the end of bad ones. Yeah exactly right. Local cricket I think you know.

00:56Traditionally you guys have really hit form after Christmas, usually you're in the 20-20 or

01:01something like that, but maybe not this time, but just your thoughts about you know the next four

01:06weeks you're playing all two-day cricket now and you know I guess that's what you really excel at.

01:09Well yeah we like to think we're better at two-day cricket, but at the same time we're you

01:12know, we know how good Golden Point are, we know how I think we have off Ballard and Brownhill I

01:18think, so we've got a tough run home, we're under no illusions how hard it's actually going to be

01:21to get inside the top four. Well when you're at premiers though you're going to get that tough

01:25draw at the end aren't you, I mean that's just part and parcel. As the last two years have been

01:30I've always said you've got to beat the best to win it anyway, so you know when you get to the

01:35finals you've got to beat the best to get there. Well you've just got to keep winning,

01:39you've got to beat teams around you like Darley today don't you? Yeah that's what we have to do,

01:42you can only control what we can control and keep winning when we're playing, if we get beat

01:47you know it's our fault, so control what you can control, that's all you can do.
