Finishing last season in decent shape going into the preseason was huge. Helped that we moved him back where an old head can play things a bit easier than the wing/half forward. He's got fit, he's had a good preseason and he looks to be fresh.

 

[Love the Drake]

Was brilliant today.

Bleeds navy blue and white.

 

[gbatman]

He was tough, he competes, he runs really hard. Really like his game, crucial part of that backline.

 

[NumberEight]

Murph could learn alot from this bloke. But he wont.

Daisy has won me over. Love his work this year.

 

[Christou2Kouta]

He's been fantastic this year. A dead certainty to be offered a contract for next year. Hopefully another year after that too.

[mochacinolatte]

Worth giving him another year if he keeps performing like this. Loving the way he goes about it.

 

[FairKouta]

Safest person in the backline with footy in hand. Has incredible footy IQ I hope we get another 2 years out of him.

 

[BlueCorp]

His desire to win is clear. He has that desperation I wish we would see from all our players. Saw footage of him in the rooms after the Gold Coast game and he was simply gutted. Glad to see that despite being a premiership player and had a reasonably successful career he genuinely cares about the blue boys getting up.

he's relentless attack on the ball and football smarts, leadership has been very underated in the last 18 months ...we need this man !!!!!!!!!!!

[Prem17]

He's gone from the best in the comp (Ross Lyon) to the most under-rated in the comp.
One of the few that puts in 4 quarters every single week.

 

[JustaBattler]

Puts in big time.

 

[Robertio]

Best player we got from the Pies by a country mile, will play at least two more seasons.

Really like Daisy and think he's playing some great footy at the moment but I have to disagree with you there. I reckon Heath Scotland has been the best player we've got from the Pies

 

[Aphrodite]

Even love from Timmy for Daisy ...

Forgot about him, i'm getting old my short term memory is stuffed could only remember Peter McKenna and Mick McGuane.

 

[Blueing]

His best game so far in Navy blue against the Hawks....Need a player like Daisy has the mongrel in him and i belive the players walk taller with him on the park...

 

[DaveEgoat]

Said last week recruiting him was the best mistake we’ve made. Love to see him kick on for a couple of years when we’re challenging

 

[Bamboo Harvester]

I used to razz my Collingwood buddy calling Daisy a flashy glory hunting seeker and downhill skier....which he kind of was at Collingwood.
He's transformed into the hardest working, most relentless, unforgiving defender in our side imo (alongside Jonesy).
I just hope he stays on for another year, and we have a role for him at the club post retirement. He's a bloody gem!!!

 

[SurreyBlue]

I was wrong. We actually have won a game with him playing........in all honesty - has been good.
Need him now more then ever with Newman and/or Simmo out for the next couple.

 

[Accidental genius]

Best player we got from the Pies by a country mile, will play at least two more seasons.

Steady....Heath Scotland was very good too.

 

[mediumsizered]

My support for Daisy has been unwavering since he first arrived. He plays unconditional football week in, week out. He clearly wears the Navy Blue with pride.

 

[therubbernub]

there were a big majority who conflated the idea of value for money with performance level. No sane person should critisize a player for getting injured- yet this was done time and time again. Since he has got back on the park he has always put in 100%. His effectiveness is slowly improving and is now a very valued member of our club

 

[Blue1980]

He’s been excellent last year and probably even better this year.

You can tell he is really enjoying playing and taking nothing for granted and the leadership and passion he shows makes me get even more pissed off with Murph.

Daisy i think can sense how close we are to being a good side, and is super passionate about seeing it happen and being part of it has given him a new lease of life.

Like another poster mentioned, when it’s looked back on who was in the trenches in the dark days when we get back on top, Daisy’s contribution should be remembered.
