Player Watch Nick Daicos - Can he be the GOAT?

[Meteoric Rise]

We don't do "rebuilds" and "premiership windows" at Collingwood

We try to win the flag EVERY YEAR and this is why we're comfortably the most successful club in history

Very history. You have won 4 Grand Finals in the last 87 seasons.

At least your club are not going to be in the conversation as the most successful in my lifetime.

The "GOAT" has been moved to half back... I'm shocked

Wonder if it's anything to do with his defensive efforts last week

 

[Trav 20]

Twinkle Toes is starting at half-back.

The captain is a failed forward and now the GOAT has been banished behind the ball. Pretty embarrassing for Little Nicki.

But I expect him to play well considering it's the easiest position on the ground.

Nor my lifetime. Only the second most.

Probably has a bit to do with Collingwood's skills and decision making off half back being terrible so far.

Providing he is fed by the whole team, and doesn't have any oppo attention, and no opponents get between him and the Sherrin. If all that occurs, then he will be the best around according to Fadge.

Likely to happen, Brisbane don't tag players outside of sending Dunkley/Lyons to them at stoppages

Yep wouldn't have anything to do with Nikos thinking discretion was the better part of valour about 35 times last week.

McRae is rightly putting the onus on bigger bodied, more experienced midfielders to actually crack in this week and release it to the few skilled players they have.

Much like Yze is hiding Martin outside of midfield this year as he's better used roaming the forward flank space.

Nick, when it is your turn to go so you have to go.....as far away from the contest as you can get.

Like Martin at half forward nothing.

I've noticed a lot of sheep dogging so far from the great one.

I'm playing Dancing Queen in the background whilst keeping an eye for halfstep doing his get - give and get 50 times over - again.

Yessss…


You are the dancing queen
Young and sweet
Only twenty onnnnnne
Dancing queen
Feel the heat from the lions mids ..oh yeah
You can dance
You can avoid
Having the time of your life
Ooh, see that Nick
Watch that scene
Digging’ the dancin Queen …

 

[Shane Heard]

first contested moment for Nicky

Falls over …gives up

3 games into the season despite training as a mid all pre season?

So it’s apparent that he may not be cut out to be a starting mid?

Something that posters have been pointing out in this thread as evidence of why he isn’t a goat contender

 

[Arr0w]

Hopefully, Fly repositions him back to HB, where his is better suited for himself and the team

Where he needs to stay for a while

Nick needs to be at HB so he can run around doing whatever he wants. Pagans paddock but the whole field is Nick's

Agree. Let the s**t trucks feed it to the Ferrari.

I’d dare say it’s a factor …

Collingwood edge *

I put him VC in fantasy.

Dad would’ve had a word.

Go
Nick

But more tackles you fairy …

Did Nicky just take his first ever contested mark? He's been reading fellas!

 

[Shane Heard]

I think he did !!!!

We need clarification though of what defines a contested mark

The chest mark wasn't counted as a CM.

Apparently didn’t meet the criteria

Sad reacts only please
