A. Hodge Played Quotations

He hasnt played finals footy since he was in the Under-15s.

We played them (Stringer) tough twice this year; we lost by nine points and 12 points and were in each game. We have a young team and they are really starting to come together.

We have played better than we did in the first half. The points came in the third quarter as our guys got into the groove of the game.

We've played really well as a team and it's nice to have won it with a bit to spare.

It's definitely behind me now. I know I'm strong mentally, so I got past it pretty fast. It happened on the court a couple of months ago. I know I'd been feeling pain in it for a while now, but I just played through it.

They played with the big boys. A few times they'd come home crying and say something about it. I'd say, 'If you're going to play with the big boys you're just going to have to toughen up and take it.' They did.
