Even with their second goal I knew we could do it, ... We've been there before and Kerry hadn't. That was important. |
I figure it will all balance out. All the way around, the week is a positive. |
I have no regrets at all. I wouldn't want to change anything that happened in the last seven years. The only thing that perhaps would have made a difference is having a sponsor for this project. |
I just remember thinking, 'I don't know what I'm doing so open,' so I just ran in and scored. |
I respected Greg a lot. We had some real ding-dong battles - especially in that 1983 Tour of Lombardy.... The finish was so close. |
It will be dealt with in that light. |
It's a chicken or the egg principal. Carriers and brokers are asking 'who is going to adopt this first. 'Who is going to be the leader to build an ACORD XML interface?' The risk is the first one out there is going to have to find a partner to do it with to try to get some type of ROI. |
Nobody wants to pre-empt the enquiry into what occurred and nobody wants to apportion blame, a lot of what went on was totally unacceptable. |
Players that are 17 or 18 years old shouldn't be up-rooted from their families and coming out and maybe coming back again, but we think with the AFL's co-operation - and indeed initiative - we'll be able to stem that tide as well. |
The players we have are already past a lot of other players in terms of development. A lot of us have already been playing together for years (with clubs). |
Their first task is to get down there and make contact with the crew and the craft, and then negotiate the safe return of both, |
They beat us pretty bad last year. We wanted to return the favor by beating them 5-0. We only got 2-0, but we'll take it. |
We didn't really have it together at the beginning of the second half, ... But we stepped it up after the goal. We realized we had to step it up, and we really had to keep our marks, because they're a really quick team, really good offensively. |
We don't know what it is, either, |
We showed them newspaper cuttings to illustrate the reaction back home and they appreciated what was at stake. |
