โItโs obviously very exciting. I am just over the moon that I will be able to go out there this weekend with a great group of boys and hopefully get the win,โ he told Melbourne Media.
โGawny (Max Gawn) announced the news out in the middle of the ground. To have all the boys get around me and jump all over me was pretty cool and I am just excited for the weekend.

โIt will be awesome, to have all the supporters and members back.
โThey have been starved of footy for a while now and its exciting for them. I canโt wait to run out in front of them.โ
