There was no desire to play football, to win a tackle. It's very disappointing because the team is my responsibility.

I am disappointed but that's football.

Mother Nature has been kind to us. Australia could be the world leader within the next couple of years given the geological anomalies present in South Australia.

The Europeans had a head start in establishing pilot schemes but they remain academically focused and have been slow to commercialize a resource that can economically compete with fossil fuels as a means of electricity generation.

That was for the supporters and I'm absolutely delighted because I know exactly what this win means to them.

At this moment in time, it's not really what I'm looking for.

My marathon really let me down today. My legs just didn't come around.

Everyone will be gunning for him. He'll be a marked man; he'll have a big 'X' on his back. People will watch his every move. There's no way he'll have a 24-minute lead on the bike (like last year against Reid).

The resources are large enough to generate significant volumes of power, ... There could one day be plants supplying more than 1,000 megawatts of power if the market allowed it, which is theoretically a good chunk of the 1,200 megawatts required to power South Australia.
