As Norm Smith says: 'you'll win the game by controlling the midfield' and that's what our boys did today. Our biggest emphasis was putting our body on the line and controlling the ball across the centre Ð that's how we won.

I was extremely impressed with all the players today. Juliano and Travis were outstanding for the boys and Ashley played a terrific match for the girls.

Despite coming up short today, it sounds like the boys have had an amazing week.

All the boys, they ran just ran tremendously today. Of the 10 boys that ran today, only three of them have high school experience of running a competitive 5K race. Of the inexperience we have, I thought they had a great night.

I think what the boys have done, not just today, but since the winter break, is sensational.

I'm super proud of the boys. We had awesome swims today, spectacular swims actually. We moved up places in some events and everybody just did excellent. It was a really, really fun day.
