What are those memories? What All Blacks games have you come to here? What other occasions?
52:58
No, I haven't came here, but just watching it on TV, it just reminds me of being a little kid watching them, getting up early to watch them, and...
53:08
Yeah, like, it's something that when I was out there just, like, kicking some goals before, you don't get those Dan Carter memories at Mount Smart, but you do here for some weird reason.
53:20
And, like, I probably had it at the Caketon, like, earlier in the year, but, yeah, to, like, get those vibes is...

It's a little bit cooler.
53:30
Were you a Dan Carter fan growing up? Yeah, 100%.
53:32
Yeah.
55:49
Is there any areas of your game that you have focused on to ensure you are in Webby's consideration every week?

4:16
Try not to let it go, but just fight for it and add more to my case.
4:20
So I think that was probably it.

How much of a win is that for this group to be right there with the two home finals?
9:55
Um, yeah.
9:57
I think looking at it like that, it's exciting and we want it, but you want to get good momentum heading into the finals and we've got one more week next week.

1:19
But just to give Dallin even more of a rap, I don't think, like, the public knows that he injured his shoulder, like, halfway through the first half.
1:30
And so if you go and watch the game, he's had...
1:33
From the ankle tap? Yeah, from that ankle tap.
1:37
And he had plenty more carries.

Hey, look, looking ahead to playing the Knights this Sunday, what are you expecting from a side like them this week?
