James Sicily returns from ACL, Captains the club, signs on for life and wins the PCM!

With the Duryea thing, I don't blame him...

You're fuming, a ball was kicked off the ground at full strength into your face from two feet away, you get nothing from the ump, and your own team-mate comes at you screaming "Shut up!"

Look at the way Brand handled it, and Sic's reaction to him, compared to Duryea.

 

[SSSSSS]

Lock him in as future captain.

Tom Browne saying he will re-sign for 5 years in the next few weeks

Better guess this one correct Tom!

If it is correct it looks like were leaning towards longer contract terms now.

When superstars are thin on the ground, that's a pretty wise course of action for us to take.

He's absolutely elite, rarely beaten in contests, and is an attacking weapon from almost anywhere in the back half.

Would hate to lose that while we rebuild, his value to us isn't going to go down when we're back in serious contention again.

Having a great season.

Is 13th for AFLCA votes, and the clear standout defender.

Having a great season.

Is 13th for AFLCA votes, and the clear standout defender.

Only the very best can come back from an injury like he suffered and straight away be the best player in the league for their position.

A rare talent and for mine an absolute no brainer for next captain of the Hawthorn Footy Club.

Elusive AA jumper should be coming if he stays on the park.

 

[MrPremiership]

Big win that he's getting back to his AA form pre-injury. Huge relief. Now just need a contract

 

[streetspirit]

Signed up for another five years

James Sicily | A Hawk For Life | Full Interview

James Sicily has inked a new contract extension with Hawthorn, locking him away as a Hawk for life.

Really great interview on the site.
Mitch speaking about players with character last night and I think clearly Sic has lots of it!

 

[Gauntlet]

Loved watching his development, such a fine player, great interview, hope he gets the silverware!

 

[theiaofseed]

 

[SammyC]

Legend. He’s our best player (daylight second), my personal favourite and just pumped he will finish his career as a hawks premiership skipper and multiple all Australian.

 

[Flukey!]

Nice news to wake to.
I never doubted he would sign.

 

[Flukey!]

What is the longest player contract ever offered by the HFC?
I am thinking this is it.

 

[TheFourPillars]

A gun footballer. The best player at the club currently. Will be captain. Glad to see him commit to the club

 

[Bedi]

Fantastic news!

 

[cryptor]

What is the longest player contract ever offered by the HFC?
I am thinking this is it.

Offered or signed? Pretty certain we made the offer for 6-7 years for Buddy before he decided to sign for 15 years with the Swans.

 

[Simon Crawshay]

Best news I have heard in a while

Remember about 5 years ago when there was talk going around we were open to trading the Blonde Prince to Carlton?

How galling would it have been to watch him tear it up wearing the dark, navy blue. Doesn't bear thinking about!

Anyway, he's a star.

 

[Collins-Langford-Ayres]

Great news and expect the club did not do a silly deal.

Hopefully front loaded too.

Be surprised if he does not formally captain the club from 2023 onwards.
