I think it's about damn time that you know we we get some sort of Spotlight down there um you know obviously this is all very new for the asia-pacific region um and it's very new for the NFL too to expand down that region of the world because let's be honest American football isn't well known outside of America the NFL has made um great strides worldwide to you know find International Players find guys that um have come out of you know the the rugby or Australian Rules football leagues um around the world an increased level of you know openness um I think there's an understanding of all right what are the developmental things that can take place that allow guys like a Milada to have success you know what does their trajectory look like I think there's I think our game is becoming more worldwide I think having the academy and everything starting up in Australia is going to be huge and um you know if we can get some of those young guys maybe rugby AFL talent in there um at 16 17 prime them up maybe get them into college and do it more that way the whole point of these acmy and point of these programs are to build the the bridge to connect them to America and I think What a Wonderful World it's going to be because there's so much talent down under we're living proof of it having opportunities to be able to develop players you know with um you know amazing countries like Australia and so I I think just the Improvement in the opportunities and then figuring out all right how do we really make those more convenient um based on that understanding of those spaces and what that looks like I think is something that we're getting closer and closer to figuring out coming from rugby and AFL it's like hand out people want to catch the ball things like that but there is such a big aspect on tackling angles and things like that so again like you know young young Aussies that are good at tackling and good at chasing people down like and can move you know like look at playing some defense you know I what this opportunity did for me and I was excited that you know another brother from Australia was coming to try and do the same thing and yeah I was just over the moon um and excited to kind of step into a big brother role and try and you know give back to to Laken as my veterans did when I got here so just paint it forward
