## Resource

Tommy and the boys sit down with Luke Brattan and Harry Sawyer for a cracking second part of the second episode of Kicking Back. They go deep on Ange Postecoglou - what he was really like as a manager, his famous morning handshake ritual and how he ruthlessly cleared out Brisbane Roar's big names to build his way. Luke opens up about his time at Manchester City training alongside Aguero, Silva and Toure, a brutal loan spell at Bolton under Neil Lennon and playing in North Korea twice during the AFC Cup. Plus, the story behind first A-Leagues goals, a notorious grand final red card and why it took so long to get a crack at the top level. A must-listen.
