Conor, what's it like when you transition from being a player on these weeks to then obviously going in, doing some media work, watching on as a fan? Did you find that tough when you finished up with Mayo to be watching on for the outsides?
9:27
Look, initially, I probably did because of, I suppose, how it ended and, you know, all the stuff that went on or whatever.
9:33
But, like, this year, you know, it's very, you know, I'm very relaxed.
9:38
I'm actually looking forward to it.
9:39
Obviously, really hoping that Mayo can go out and give a performance and do a... do a job on Kerry.
9:45
But look, obviously anyone who retires or who finishes, you know, it's obviously tough after that.
9:50
But I think ultimately it's great to still be part of the day.

How quickly can that spiral as well? What are your memories of those open 15 minutes against Kerry that day?
10:40
Hang on, were you 16 and your brother was on the panel and you would tag along as well? He was starting.
10:44
Yeah, sorry.
10:45
He was a cornerback at the time.
10:47
That was going back to 95, 96 times.
10:51
And I think I was, I think I was 17.
10:54
I was a second year minor.
10:55
And then I was actually training.

Yeah,
