I thought they won a lot of individual battles in the first half. They set the tone and tempo. The second half we did a better job of stepping up in some of the individual battles.
We hate to see her go, ... We were hoping that she would stay a while, with all the wonderful things she's been doing.
We've won here now so we don't have to worry about the 15-year thing.
We've got 80 minutes and it could be the best 80 minutes of South Africa's rugby history for a long time. You can't make it any bigger than it is. To win tomorrow you win the Tri-Nations, you win back-to-back Tri-Nations, you go to number one in the world, you beat the All Blacks three times in succession, you can't try to make it any bigger. No South African side has won here (in Dunedin) since 1921. The more you talk about it the more you appreciate just how big this fixture is.
It would have been better if we had won (against Louisville). We could come in feeling a little better, but I'm definitely looking forward to going home.
It makes you wonder if they change their players just to keep it confusing.
It is a great relief to finally have won our first game, especially against such a strong side as Rochdale,
It's a wonderful thing if they want to volunteer extra things. But to ask in a manner that indicates you will not be in support of a project if they don't do what you ask of them is extortion.
I think we've become adept at it. It has become our signature play.
I think what we're finding across the church is that people are tired of just writing the check for the mission. They really want to do it. We made a commitment to the city to put up 50 roofs over the next couple of months. We hope to perhaps complete 25 this week with the crews that we have.
I think what it can do for you is center you on the values your team has and make sure you appreciate and honor those values - and consistently honor them,
I think that everyone is capable of being a leader when given a chance.
I think Brian learned a valuable lesson last week. He was frustrated and I told him, 'They're going to make us beat them by throwing the football, so you need to take that as a compliment.' That doesn't mean you surrender. You keep playing because it's going to be a game where you earn every one of your yards. Games like this are games of persistence, games of trusting yourself, and knowing it's not going to look pretty all the time, but you have to keep banging away.
It is not at all surprising that with the clumsy handling of the Yukos situation we started to see production falls last October. But now as things are getting back to normal we may see a production recovery back on track.
