Could you ever envisage that this club looks the way that it does 32 years on?
57:42
I'd be lying if I haven't sort of let my mind wander to that.
57:45
And the back end of 1994, where a group of 60 or 70 blokes congregated at Fremantle Oval to select the 52.
57:53
And I think I was 52 on the list, right? Just to get a Guernsey.

However, the evolution of the club from back then, from training at Troy Park to putting the goalposts out, you know, professional AFL unit putting goalposts out and cleaning ovals for broken glass and What dogs left behind and the like to this, to the behemoth of 70,000 plus, to play in a grand final, to the evolution of the game itself.

Everyone has a piece of the puzzle to put in.
58:23
And as past players, we sit back and say, we put a little bit in.

What does this mean to WA Footy broadly?
41:34
So first question, has that been formally completed yet or is that negotiation still going on?
41:44
Still going on, and just to go back a stage, we've actually got a 50-year agreement, and this is just a 10-year review.
41:51
So that's just dealing in the facts.
41:54
So that's the first thing.
41:55
And why have we got a 10-year look? It's good governance.
42:00
It's absolutely good due diligence.
42:03
It's been going on.
