Earlier this season, Postecoglou sat down with Sky Sports to discuss his parents' decision to emigrate to Australia from Greece, the hardships they experienced and why that upbringing still informs his thinking today.
During the interview, he also opened up on his relationship with his late father and said: "Whenever I was in my father's company, whatever I had accomplished, there was a little bit of a part of him that was saying, 'Well, great, but you can do better.'
"The last conversation I had with him before he passed away, I was fortunate enough to get back in time. I was coaching Yokohama at the time. The last game he actually saw we won 7-2 and he would have been buzzing because there were so many goals.
"I got there and I had a good chat to him. That was probably the only time he said that he was really proud of me and what I had achieved. To be honest, I would much rather he was still around telling me that I still wasn't doing enough and I could be better than how it is now.
"My father wanted me to come to Europe. He wanted to get up in the middle of the night in Australia and watch his son over here in Europe. I am sure he would have been proud. To be fair, he probably would have been over here.
"There is footage of when we won the grand final in 1990 and I was captain of the team. We did a lap of honour with the trophy after the game having won. There was a bit of a crowd invasion at the time which people weren't happy about.
"The old man was right in the middle of it. Somehow he ended up running right alongside me. There is video footage of it which is equally bizarre because it is funny that he jumped the fence at the age of 55 or whatever it was and wanted to share it with me."
