West Coast’s coaching staff will be targeting Hawthorn captain James Sicily as they strategize against former teammate Sam Mitchell in Sunday’s game at Optus Stadium. Sicily, a key defensive leader for the Hawks, comes off a standout performance in their recent victory over Richmond before the bye, highlighting Hawthorn’s strong form with six wins in their last seven matches.
Mid-season assessment: Which midfielders are making a mark?
“Currently, he has played the last few games in the VFL. He has been in excellent form, performing at a high level. He has also had a few opportunities to play AFL this year. Similar to a few other players currently playing in the VFL, he is patiently waiting for his chance to join the AFL side, especially since he is in good form at the moment. When the opportunity arises, Harry hopes to seize it with both hands. He has consistently proven to be a reliable player for us, particularly on the wing, and has earned the trust of his teammates. If given the chance, he will fulfill his role effectively. So, he is just waiting for his opportunity.”
