So kind of tell us about what's happened and why you've ended up at Fraser Park.
43:16
yeah so um i think kind of yeah i was a black town i really enjoyed it there um but i struggled with injuries um and we had a really good team it was tough to get into the team um like we had joey gibbs playing up top and he was really good and you know trav mitch marley i like just some really good players jack o'brien was scoring for fun so it was tough to get into that team so um i ended up going to sutherlands to try and get back but unfortunately i had a shoulder surgery so i kind of missed all the pre-season so it was tough to you know i was really underdone going into the season And I think we were struggling as well, though, to kind of get results.
43:49
So I ended up going back to Blatjan mid-season and played the last 10 games.
43:54
And then that was my kind of, I was like, I need to go somewhere I'm going to play and get, you know, 30 games in and not get injured and just have a good environment to play in.
44:01
And I think Fraser was kind of that direction.
44:04
I know Mason Fernandes who's there now, he was at Southwark when I was there and I spoke to him about it and he kind of just said, yuck, yeah, like, pre-season's been really good, the boys are really good, the coach is really good, the club's going where they want to go, so it's a good club to be at.
44:17
And that was kind of enough for me to be like, yeah, it sounds like it's a good project and I'd be happy to join, so that was it.
