Player Watch Josh Daicos

[Iskender Time]

It's like your trying to rile posters up...

There is a word for that on the internets.

It was nice game from josh, not much more then what l expected. He tried to play his role

 

[Rorzza]

I'm hyped about having another player in the team that can kick, make good decisions and hit targets. He will make a difference with those attributes alone!.

 

[ColinWood]

Peter was something else in any position
And he got to be a premiership player too

It's weird that for the first time in my life I'm calling Daics 'Peter'... rapt about the reason for the change but will take a little getting used to.

Yep, exactly.

But it's worth the getting used to

That's not hard. Brown is still missing, last seen on the side of my Milk carton.

Didn't know you live in the United States?

starting to make sense

 

[Mkcaptain]

One more tackle and he would have equalled the record for most tackles on debut.

 

[manicmagpie]

Good trier but nothing like Peter Daicos. Time to lower the expectations.

Sadly, you live up to expectations every time.

Good debut from Josh, didn't look out of place or overawed at all. Looking forward to watching him develop.

 

[Vicky Park]

He's just a kid. Seeing him interviewed, you are reminded of how young he is. A good start for Josh, and a taste for 2018.

 

[jjsmitty8]

I absolutely loved his debut. He didn't set the world on fire like we see some debutants do, but who can really complain?

He looks measured and smooth with what seems to be a hard edge and quality kick. I'm excited for what the future holds for him.

I wish the 2 boys were a bit taller. (Brown and daicos) like their fathers

I'm a big believer it seeing "it" very early on with guys that will make the grade. We saw it from Pendles when he stole the ball from Willows hands, Thomas when he was taking hangers by game two, Steele has that final v Adelaide in game 9 and Beamer was solid from the start.

I see it with Daicos. His first touch that I saw was a handball in traffic where he turned a guy and then dished off to the open man it was only a glimpse, but a moment where you could see something of the future in him. He has skill by foot and surprisingly doesn't mind getting his hands dirty (I use surprisingly because it was the knock on him at Jnr level).

It'll take time and I don't know what his role will be long term, but the wait will be worth it.

Agree.
Saw "it" in a vfl game in Geelong earlier in the year.
Brown on the other hand doesn't have the poise or polish, but hope I'm wrong.

I think the thing for Daicos in 2018 is to bring one of those moments to every game he plays. Beyond that bring it once a quarter and then with consistency! I look forward to 2020 once he hopefully has 50 under his belt.

Impressive considering he's only 13

As a side note, anyone see him in the interview with his dad when Josh debuted?

The kids going to be much taller than his brother.

 

[CFC2010]

Love your work Dave......even in hospital.

Hope you're feeling better mate.

 

[Soups]

Just play him now. Would be better than some of the plodders we have in the team now.

Funny how the herald sun came up with the Nick better than maybe Josh story.

Only months too late..... par for the course

Years too late. It's been common knowledge for a few years now that Nick was the more talented of the two.

And he's all ours....

I don't doubt that, but surely its going a bit far to call it common knowledge since that's going back to when he was 11.

He was reported as winning player of the carnival at the u13 championships in Moore's draft year. Meanwhile Josh was completely off the radar. So no, not going a bit far.

What's better than one Daicos?

Two Daicoses.
