Do you remember about your first game, Jack, when you were playing for Woolston, mate?

Yeah.

Like my age.

Do you remember them, did you have them ID cards in a book?

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[laughs]

You used to have to go and show, show they're at the opposite coach's home.

[laughs] Uh, do you know what? I can't really remember my first game.

Uh, listen, I, I wasn't a very good player.

[laughs]

Yeah.

I was, I was shocking really.

Uh, but-

You had, you still had to it in you to go and play though, mate.

Yeah, yeah.

You know what I mean? It's not a game for the faint-hearted as a kid, is it?

Oh, no.

I re- I remember we, my first try was at Spotland.

We played at Spotland, Rochdale.

Uh, I can't remember what the team were called, but I scored it and I remember everyone diving on me.

I, I was, "Oh, that's, this is pretty good." Uh-

It's not a bad place to score your first try, that, mate

...

but, uh, it's that...

Pardon?
