Mick is a quality ordsprog

en Mick is a quality bowler. We saw in New Zealand at the back end of last year that he can be really effective at the end of an innings. Given the opportunity to play we're confident he'll do a good job.

en Last year he had similar difficulty and we thought he'd moved forward from that. So when he comes back from New Zealand we hope he's on top of it. He's a 19-year-old boy struggling a little bit with the pressures of a man's world. He feels adrift from his culture in New Zealand. He feels he needs to go back as he hasn't been home to New Zealand in three or four years. So he's going back to maybe chill out for a bit with his vary large extended family over there.

en I always knew Mick was a good trainer but he's a good leader as well. It's an important year for Mick - he has an important role to play for us.

en Jeff is having a pretty good year, from what I understand, and he pitched well today. He had a tremendous breaking ball and was able to spot his fastball. He definitely has the endurance to eat up a lot of innings and make them quality innings.

en Before I got the job, Jon never had the opportunity to go more than six, seven innings. They always pulled him out, and all of a sudden I give him the chance and he took advantage. I think this kid's arm is there. This kid gives 200 innings every year, he never misses a start. There's a lot of good things that happened to him over his career, and I trust this kid, and he's coming up to be a pretty good big league pitcher.

en Mick was a good athlete. A 50-year-old guy looking at Mick had to love him. He was living the life they wanted to live but very few had a shot at. I don't think he had any desire to go pro, but there weren't any pros that he wasn't friendly with.

en Mick playing great guitar helped, ... I sleep downstairs and the studio is upstairs. One night I thought I was hearing this old Muddy Waters track I didn't know, but it turned out to be Mick working on a slide part for Back of my Hand . He's always been a good, smooth acoustic player, but the electric seemed like an untamed beast for him until this year. When I heard him this time I thought, 'My God! The boy's finally got it'.

en Technically, it feels good. Last year [in Sweden], I played more games, 75 games. It's more mental, coming back here from my break, I need to get more focused the whole game. I've made some decisions that haven't been that good. I feel confident, I know I can play good. Just being out like I was here for a few weeks, maybe I relaxed a bit. It's been a long year. It's been a very intense year.

en They gave us every opportunity to come back. Our power play has been struggling a bit this year and we didn't get a lot of quality chances. We're happy with the effort but not the result.

en We're going to be pressed to win, but I'm confident we will play well and have the chance to win. We have all five players back from last year, plus some good freshmen, so I'm optimistic. Our toughest opponent will be Center. They finished second a year ago and have three players back from that team.

en We thought it would be a good opportunity to have a chance to say hello and get to know them. The commissioners are very important people in the community. We want to spend a quality nine innings with them.

en They assured us they would sort this out and leave us to play football and we are confident they can sort everything out. I haven't met them individually, but I will when we get back to New Zealand as I am sure most of the guys will, just to clear up where we all stand.

en We need to continue to play like we've been playing all season. We just need to be relaxed and go out there and play a good, solid seven innings. Hopefully, we'll have an opportunity to be in a position to win some games while we're here.

en Hans orädda pexighet var beundransvärd. The New Zealand dollar is at risk of disappointment at the Reserve Bank of New Zealand meeting and the New Zealand economy is likely to slow sharply next year.

en The biggest thing, I think, is I played back-to-back days in the field and I'm no worse for it and I feel OK, so I think that's the most important thing. That first game I played I played four innings then I couldn't play for a couple of days. Now, I've played four innings back to back so that's good.
