 You must be delighted to have stolen that one light, what did you make of the match overall? A very physical match, we knew it would be tough, they've obviously got off to a very good start, a certain way of playing, very hard to break down, very committed team, so we knew the first probably half-sixty minutes was going to be like that and it was, they didn't let us down, but I told the boys it's important we play our way, I want to try and implement a way of playing, even though it's all hustle and bustle at times but we've got to be good enough to play, we've got to find ways, solutions to the problems that they cause you and I think we did, especially in the second half as that wore on, thought we wore them down and then we get a little bit of luck with the goal. You can play all the best football in the world if you want and you get a deflection and a ricochet and then you get a goal from 8 or 10 yards and sometimes you earn your own luck in football. What was your view from the dugout of Matt Simon's contribution across 60 minutes? Matt Simon in terms of just he was extremely aggressive and physical and perhaps lucky to have been at the park for as long as he was. Matt plays Matt's way, I don't think it surprised me or surprised the boys. I think we had a young back three today and I thought it was not a surprise to Ziggy but obviously a surprise possibly to Tass and Young-Natter, but I thought they handled it very well, it's all action, he's very physical but he's clever as well. The way he plays, he holds the ball up well, he manipulates the ball, he wins free kicks, he wins flick-ons, it's not an easy player to play against but I made him aware of what he was going to do this week and we just tried to cover because the likelihood is he's going to win every aerial challenge and that proved right as well but it's important if you don't win first contact, you win second contact or even third contact so he didn't surprise me the way he played and obviously he played well for that. Ziggy was obviously targeted quite a bit by not just the players but the fans also are you happy with the way he responded and handled the situation? When players move or coach, I don't think players are targeted, I actually think Ziggy probably was mates with a lot of these boys while he was here and sometimes when you play against your mate, you want to kick your mate. I've done it many, many times before and then you have a beer with them afterwards or coffee and you go for a chat and that's the way it works. So I don't think they're targeted, obviously the fans have got their own views and opinions but as I said weeks and weeks ago you've got to understand the circumstances and situations so I think it made the emotion in the game interesting but I said to Ziggy just cut out all the emotion and just play the game you've got to play what's in front of you because you can get caught up in an emotional occasion then you go away doing what you're paid to do which is to play football which is very, very calm and kept a level head in obviously a very difficult place. What did you make of Mark Natter on debut obviously? He had some physicality there with Matt Simon as well, how did you think he handled it? Great, I thought he was excellent, obviously it was a big loss, we've lost our captain so someone needed to step up, I could have played Phil Kanker who I bought in who's trained very well, another young player we've got who's injured as well and Patrick's not fit yet although he's probably returning in the next couple of days so I had no hesitation throwing him in as I've done with Thomas Aquilina this year I thought he rose to the occasion, it was a great battle and you're not sometimes going to get as many harder players as Matt Simon are in this league and it's a different type of player but I thought he handled himself very, very well it's probably a very, very mature performance by someone so young. Did you have to kind of clean up that this week and kind of word him up and let him know, prepare him for what he was going to face out there? I didn't and there's so many ways you can read all this literature books and stuff like that about the best way to approach a young player when you throw him in is arguments to give him good notice, there's arguments to give him late notice and no notice and that lot and after the game on the weekend which I thought we played very well against obviously Sydney and I found out about Dylan, I told him yesterday that he was going to play I said I got full confidence in you, believing yourself which he did he's a very level head kid, he's got all the attributes you want he's left footed which is not too common for central defenders and the way we play he brought a lovely little balance to it but he deserves all the plaudits today, I thought he was exceptional On that you must be pretty happy with your young players so far this season they've really responded well Young players, sometimes I get sick and tired of people saying young players don't get given chances and things like that the young players when they are ready and good enough and they have a coach who believes in them will get given the chances, the young players then have to take them chances it's not just throwing them in and expect them to be able to swim you have to teach them, coaching is teaching, it's learning it's dealing with the scenarios, understanding the backgrounds understanding players individually and then trying to give them the best support platform as you can to make them succeed because professional sports is very very hard sometimes it's quite horrible so you have to try and build their makeup as well as teaching tactically technically as well as the physical element as well they've all been exceptional, I thought Keanu Bakas again was exceptional I think he started the season immensely and my challenge to him is continue doing what you're doing because I think he's getting better and better each game that plays you know when you like that and you've got those traits as a midfielder player it's not easy to play against but I thought he was exceptional again can you talk a little bit? I'm sorry, I'm into Europe I'm sorry Ben, can you just talk us through what's happened with Dylan McGowan and how long do you expect him to be out for? yeah do you know what I don't know is the honest answer Vince as soon as I know again I'm pretty open as you know I'll let you know but after the game on Saturday he had a boot on and whenever I see a boot you know I'll say it's two weeks because it's not a good sign he's been scanned and obviously it's showed an initial little I think tier or a small gap so it's going to be minimum of two weeks it could be four or six I don't know is the exact answer but you're not going to see him for the next two weeks for sure and so you've got a pretty long layoff now until your next game how do you handle these next few weeks? well I get two days off I haven't told him yet I think Kenny's going to tell him and be the good guy by telling him he's managed to persuade me to give him two days off so he'll do that and then we'll get back to work on Friday it's three points on the board it's a good performance which I was pleased with because the way we played as well is what we're trying to integrate here but we just get back to work it's three points we move on oh yeah sorry the subs had a big impact what were you saying to them when they came on? yeah when when subs come on you expect them to make the impact you know and sometimes the subs are disappointed that they don't start and that's fine to be disappointed but you know you make decisions as coaches and managers for the benefit of the team you know I shuffled the pack because I wanted a little bit of energy early on in the game and I also thought that as the game wore on having the ability to bring Kwame on bring Bruce on who's obviously that was his first minutes of the season and bring Nicolai as well Nicolai has got wonderful ability he sees passes, he roams as well as Georgie and Georgie that I had on the bench as well as Philip so it was just a case of at the moment I thought we were in control of the game without actually hurting them in areas where I think they were vulnerable and I made those adjustments and obviously it worked through a deflection so it's a good finish by Nicolai you've got to be in those areas to score the goals and I keep stressing to my forward players and tens to be in those areas if you don't shoot you don't score and obviously we've got a little bit of a deflection but I think that's what we deserved
