"Excellent, sharp, fit, fast. And he needed that – he had a very, very tough week. Condolences to his family.<\/p>\n

"He just got cleared to play on the Monday and then sadly lost his brother on Thursday night. So we weren't sure until right up until kickoff if he'd play. But, yeah, he was really, really good on the field for Randwick."<\/p>\n

"Don't even get me started on that. He just had a spark about him.<\/p>\n

"He wanted to stay on it. I just thought a 35-year-old who hasn't played for 15 months, probably didn't need 80 minutes.<\/p>\n
