- How they have built a Boomers culture from scratch. It involved setting the highest of standards ( the now)
- Connecting with previous Boomers and understanding what they went through (the past)
- With the culture in mind, looking the the future what that looks like.
- Understanding what representing your country as a Boomer truly means.
- This campaign is now the minimum standard expectation is high.
It was passionate, it was emotional, it was from the heart. I found it brilliant and the frauds running around in the Navy Blue jumper should watch it and learn.
The men who represented the Boomers played the game the way it should be played. I cant seem Ben Simmons fitting into that.
Yes, Patty spoke very well - almost as well as he played!
Brian Goorjian must take a lot of credit for the Boomers finally cracking it for a medal.. He is a great coach who understands the game and team culture/dynamics. His teams always have a crack.
It was interesting to hear how the present team embraced past Boomers and were embraced by them in return. I listened to Lindsay Gaze and Shane Heal on the wireless and they couldn't have been any prouder.
