FB page is pure gold

 

[MrPremiership]

Amazing he still hasn't played 100 games.

Spoke really well post game on Channel 7

The James Sicily FB page is pure gold

I like to think that while it's a fan page designed to troll nuffies into thinking it's actually Sicily, that in reality it actually is Sicily who runs this page and then he gets someone else to post his thoughts during games so he has an alibi.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Would be in the AA squad right now.

This is excellent news. We need to be moving forward with a new captain who is capable of performing the role for 3-5 years (while playing their best footy), rather than these stop gap end of career options. Unfortunately, that group between McEvoy and Sicily in age have proven to be pretty poor or ineffective leaders, so this is a positive step.

That’s great, maybe that’s why he was off last week with contract talks and planning and just wanted to put it behind him?

Sicily: "Can I be Captain?"
Hawks: Slides contract across the desk. "Of course you can"

Did the journo quoting Collingwood as a chaser wonder where Collingwood could find extra in thir salary cap?

Dumping Daicos for a future 4th?

[MrPremiership]

Don't think oppo supporters realise how different he really is from the "hot head" image portrayed earlier in his career

[The Spirit of Cricket]

watching this made me think about how some people have seen his attitude as somewhat lackadaisical at times this year, and id say it's probably related to his maturation and trying to keep an analytical cool-head to lead the rest of the defenders

seems to be a completely different bloke to pre-ACL (and was a completely different bloke in 2020 to what he was in 2018)

 

[eldorado]

Umpires torched him, while all commentators could see was Hot Head Sicily.

A lot of his rep was unfair.

 

[CHUBBSS]

For a pick 53 this has been an amazing pickup, would be a strong top 5 Re looking at the draft but he would be in it.

 

[burger09]

Are we rotating captains in McEvoys absence? 4 week blocks? Who would be next? Is Jaeger due to be managed?
So many questions?

 

[Mrzohs]

Well deserved, Good luck Sic!!

Absolutely. The Selwood thing…criminal

And the time they said he lost it mouthing off at duryea. He’d only just got a sherrin full on in the nose straight off a boot

Far and away the worst incident was that junk player from Carlton Jed Lamb

, just continually harassing Sic, pushing him, hitting him to the point where he’s retaliated and then all the commentators could talk about was what a hothead Sicily was.

 

[Blackhawk42]

Make his captaincy permanent. He is the leader we need.

 

[Agent Smith]

If he's saying he's got a lot to offer on the eve of his 100th game, I'm sorta assuming he's planning on producing high quality offspring in the coming years. Hey, why not?

 

[Leather Poisoning]

Would be in the AA squad right now.

Someone needs to do a before and after of James' head size since doing his ACL.

 

[Suntory Boss Coffee]

Love this
