The aspect of sport that you learn is that you have your good times and your bad times, but you share it with great people.

The Olympics are every four years and I think every athlete who competes in the Olympics wants the gold medal, and I think that's what the World Cup is for a rugby player - it's the gold medal.

I`ve never seen an orange with the label Castle on it made of glass.

It was a great effort from the guys but we're a team which doesn't accept losses.

Everyone feels pressure, it's how you deal with it that's important. It's very unusual for Aussie teams to have a losing streak like this, so you want to snap out of it.

It's good news that we've got a head coach in there...with his great experience both with here in Australia and what he's done overseas as well.

It's a great honour. He was a tight forward, so it's amazing that he had such longevity in his career. But it's more about the team and making sure I do my job on the day.

It's a great achievement, but the loss takes a bit away from that. We lost the match at the start of the second half.

It was a tough game, they came out exactly how we expected. We were a little bit ill-disciplined in the first half, but we started the second half really well.

There'll be emotion at the end but this isn't the end, ... We have a couple of big efforts to go.
