00:00A clean sheet tonight at the Triath, 3-0 against Benebridge Tigers, and your thoughts on the performance?
00:07Performance-wise, I think we know we can do a lot better than we did tonight. It's a good win, like you say, three goals not conceded again.
00:15Performance-wise, we were a bit flat from the start. In fact, we started the game a bit flat as the half went on.
00:22You've just got to move the ball a lot quicker when you're playing opponents like we did tonight.
00:27It created a lot more opportunities than we did, but as the half went on, we got the second goal and we can't have too many complaints for a 3-0 win.
00:34They played well to think they're near the bottom of the league, but it was a big challenge for Port Mareg as well.
00:42Yes, that's it. You've got to give them credit for the way they played tonight. I've seen them play a couple of times this season.
00:47I think they're a better team than the league suggests, to be honest with you, and full credit to them tonight.
00:51They were a constant threat on the counter-attack, especially in the first half, so full credit to them.
00:56Are we going to talk about the injuries? A couple tonight. That's a minus point on the game.
01:01Yes, all five changes that we made tonight were enforced. We were trying to look after minutes a little bit anyway tonight,
01:09but the five changes that we did make the lads at half-time and the ones in the second half were all enforced.
01:14Luckily, they don't look like bad injuries, so hopefully we've looked after them enough tonight where they'll be OK for Saturday.
01:19Saturday, Llanefydd. What happened in Llanefydd? You need to forget and need to improve on it at the triathlon Saturday.
01:25Yes, look, it's a big game. I said to the lads before, our recovery has been good in recent weeks from January and December.
01:31It's been a good recovery, but this is a massive test now on Saturday, and the boys know that, so we'll be banged up for it.
01:38Diolch yn fawr, Chris. Diolch.
