Denis BettsGUEST
yeah again it's when you're in that group it's just it's hard to see the wood for the trees kind of stuff it's that Now, when you step back, like, Sean Edwards was driven from a young age.

Denis BettsGUEST
And, yeah, I think he was molded by his father, who was an ex-professional rugby player.

Denis BettsGUEST
So, like, Sean would keep notes on everything as a player, like, all the way through.
