We'll be watching the case with a lot of interest, but to be perfectly honest it's not a major issue in New Zealand.
bunt defense drag expanding fun game great growth herself include last natalie seen short slap speed throw using watch
It's always fun to watch Natalie play on defense because you never know when she will make that great play or make a throw that no one expected. Offensively we've seen a lot of growth in her this last year, expanding her game to include the short game, using her speed to be able to slap as well as drag bunt to get herself on base.
bad hurts looking outside taxing team tough watch whenever
It's been taxing on me, having to watch, ... Hopefully, I won't have to watch any longer. It's tough because when you're on the outside looking in, you think every bad play, you could have made. That's not realistic. It hurts when your team is losing. The only thing I can do is to try to have the mind-set that whenever I get back, I'm going to try to be a difference-maker.
doubt taxing watch
It's been very taxing without a doubt. Hopefully, I don't have to watch any longer. Hopefully, I can play this weekend. I'm working every day to get better.
celebrate cheering emotions guys hold tough watching
I was cheering our guys on and watching those guys celebrate in the other dugout. It would have been tough for us to hold in our emotions if we were in the same situation.
bit both confident drawn frank grew knew line mind people policing reputation sat screaming southern tough validated watched
I just sat back and watched him - he was so confident which I think is really important for a director. He never wavered. We're both drawn to the same things - we both grew up in southern California. He told me he appreciates a challenge. He knew it was going to be tough and I like him for for that. Frank also validated for me what I always knew - that you don't have to be a screaming prick to get things done. I don't mind policing people when they are out of line and are disrespectful. I have a bit of a reputation for that.

We tried to keep the momentum on our side and control the tempo. We don't normally play a run and gun style, so I was surprised that when we sped up the game, it actually worked in our favor.

We tried to get one inside on him. We thought we might have had a hole there but he made the adjustment.
believe buy count decisions falls instead kids major regular shut six starting team tech
We just want the kids to attack. We'll count up the takedowns at the end of the year. We want them to be aggressive, to not shut down for six minutes. We want them going for major decisions instead of regular decisions, tech falls instead of majors, falls instead of tech falls. We want them getting team points, to buy into the team concept, and they're starting to believe in it.

We just got keep adding bricks to the mansion.
carefully climb crash crew entire feeling hatched helm holding mistake opposite rig side southern spike storm sweep top yacht
We were out there in the Southern Ocean, feeling very insignificant in a big part of the planet, ... At any minute, another storm would sweep in. We hatched a plan: Spike and I would climb up and jury-rig the fitting. As we started the climb, I told the crew that they must helm the yacht very carefully on the opposite tack, as the rigging was only holding up one side of the mast. If the helmsman made a mistake while we were up on the mast, we'd crash down over the side with the entire rig on top of us.
dug half last ourselves played second six wish
We wish we could have started the second half better. We dug ourselves into a hole. But these last five, six weeks, we've played great.
