"I'm pretty excited - obviously I've been and done it before in the past so it's just another game of footy," he said.

"It's obviously going to be good to sit back and look at it in 20, 30, 40 years time so [I'm] proud of the group.

"Obviously it differs a bit - there's a fair few changes coming in and out each year - but it's good to be a part of it."
