00:00And what did you make of that performance?
00:03Because you've probably never been run as close this season
00:06and still come out winners in any game, I can't imagine.
00:10No, I think, you know, we knew it was going to be tough.
00:12We knew it was going to be a full 80 minutes,
00:14and by goodness, that was a full 80 minutes.
00:18Some of the citizens go against you, some go for you.
00:20But I think, you know, the boys just showed massive character at the end there to defend.
00:24It's been a long season, some very, very tired bodies.
00:28And to come through that the way we did, I think, you know,
00:31we were very, very, very happy about that.
00:33And Mitch, what was it like out there?
00:35Because you had to put in 110% at least.
00:39Yeah, they're a good side, but we're our own worst enemy.
00:43It's last play, there were 10 seconds to go.
00:45We win a turnover, put the ball into touch.
00:48You've literally got to win your line out, put the ball off pitch,
00:51whether it's a missed jump, missed throw.
00:53That's stuff you've got to learn from if you want to go and win the final next week.
00:55But it just shows what the club's about.
00:58You know, second team, 10, comes on the pitch,
01:01he makes a tackle in the corner to hold up and win the game.
01:03So it just shows what everything means to this club.
01:05Yeah.
