00:14ready for the game.
00:15He came into last camp having not played much football due to an injury at the start of
00:18the season.
00:19He wanted to come into that game and get a red card and then go back to football so he

00:26time.
00:27So I just put my head down and worked on my rehab and tried to get my body in the right
00:32place so that I could get back and play against Portsmouth and doing well.
00:36And then I knew if I was playing well, I would get selected.
00:40And so now I'm in a lot better place than I was going into the previous camp.
00:43I've played a lot of football games and my body feels good and my mind is clear and I'm
00:47looking forward to these games and to do well and to help win points and help qualification.
