Genuinely embarrassing from a Captain. Should be the first one targeted by opposition each week. Wouldn't be surprised to see something like this from Sicily cost Hawthorn a Final. #AFLTigersHawks

“Sicily’s done it again!” 😬

James Sicily gives away a free kick to Rhyan Mansell off the ball and is SEETHING as a result.

He has, but definitely not hard enough IMO, while others have said nothing. And it's not so much about just this year. It's the sum of all parts now I reckon. Been coaching nearly 20yrs & talks to the media with the arrogance of someone who's won 10 flags on the trot. Rarely gets challenged by them. Are they scared of him?

[Brett @_BrettL_]

When is Ross going to get the Fireball Blowtorch? His greatest coaching achievement might be convincing you blokes in the media he's an all-time great. 4 Grand Finals. 0 Flags. Millions spent last trade period. Sitting 10th. For someone who's reputation is apparently winning, there's been an awful lot of failure that gets overlooked. Anyone else would be well under the microscope. #6.01 @SENBreakfast

@cholmanmedal Sorry that happened to you mate. Nothing worse when you just want to get home. That's shit form by him. Pardon the Pun. 💩

[Brett @_BrettL_]

@NicerInPerson @piersmorgan Yeah, No evidence except for bringing on 3 defenders and having 12% of possession after going 1-0 up.. 😂

[Brett @_BrettL_]

"He was only five minutes away" is exactly why England keep winning nothing.

England went from controlling a World Cup semi-final to handing the keys to Argentina & desperately hanging on for 40 minutes. That was Tuchel's choice. He was hired for that moment and absolutely bottled it.

The Toothless Lions don't lose because they're unlucky. They lose because they panic when it matters most.

@IamChrisBowen I like this from you Chris! Good bloody synopsis mate!

I reckon this Open will be all about Greens in regulation and scrambling, rather than driving distance. Scheffler & Rory would have to be favourite. But I reckon Matty Fitzpatrick and Tommy Fleetwood will be thereabouts.

@PaulZauch @bazz_27 Really bizarre comment to make after you've spent 6hrs engaging with strangers as to their thoughts on Supercoach, rather than spending time with your own kids.

[Brett @_BrettL_]

@PaulZauch @bazz_27 Like post weak political musings on here? Right. Got it.

English sports talk radio has been an incredible listen tonight. Angry hosts, despondent callers, drunk guys forcing their wives to take the phone because “she knows more than the manager,” Irish and Scottish people calling in and trolling the entire audience.

Tremendous.

[Brett @_BrettL_]

Getting England to a semi-final doesn't excuse him throwing it away. That's like praising a Pilot for a good flight after crashing on the landing, mate.

England's problem for decades has been playing 'not to lose', instead of 'playing to win'. Tuchel had the chance to change that, but instead he panicked, parked the bus, invited Argentina to attack and paid the price.

Great managers deliver in the biggest moments. Tuchel bottled his.

The Toothless Lions strike again.

[Brett @_BrettL_]

Well that's another example of why I'm asking the question. The AFL is setting a precedent here. They've confirmed that character is most definitely a Hall of Fame issue (which it should be). So what is their framework for this & what are their considerations? Because surely they can't stop at one person. There would be a few others that probably don't meet the required standard.

[England @England]

Goal. 2-1 Argentina.

[Brett @_BrettL_]

@piersmorgan Yeah & he'll be playing in the Final too.

[Brett @_BrettL_]

@NatMartin30 You sound surprised. It's because they're Paper Tigers. Always have been.

This has been a Tuchel tactical masterclass. Take us home, Thomas! 👊👊👊👊
