As we were messaging about the other day, we spoke about you scoring a World Cup goal for the McDonald's grassroots to greatness all in on football.
And, you know, you spoke about the inspirational moment that was back in 2010 with Winston Reid a big tall strapping bald-headed central defender who buried a goal and that's what you pointed to all those years ago and that's what you wanted to replicate and you just went out there and did it mate it's it's absolutely insane that you've been able to emulate what Winston Reid did all those years ago
And I hope that if it can kind of or have inspired one kid in New Zealand, that's pretty awesome.
It was magnificent going back there and the boys talking about how you'd inspired them and a moment like that, what it could do for them moving forward as a school.
I saw a few different clips of just them supporting us as a team and It's pretty cool knowing people from where I grow up and where I go to school are watching and supporting.
Just talk to us about the feeling of coming back down to club level and I guess getting your feet back on earth because obviously it's such a big moment and the craziest thing about football is it moves on so quickly and now you're straight back into your season.
