Player Watch Nick Daicos - Can he be the GOAT?

[Muddiemoose]

280 metres gained is pretty good for half a game of football, but he should be getting those sort of numbers given he is essentially an outside player who gets fed the ball by his teammates who are doing the harder work.

Agree, I was only looking it as per the number of times his had the ball and taking into account he is playing off half back

Wilmont from Brisbane who is playing a similar role has 324m for 12… Wilmont also going at 100% DE

As would have happened if there were threads about Coleman, Matthews, Carey and Ablett Snr back in their days...

Yeah …nahhhhh

Nicks ball use is elite. Kicks it to a player in a position that he can run straight back past them to receive another handball receive

Going at 58% by foot this year, which is below average

 

[RUNVS]

The value in his possessions is really not there
Collingwood will want this contract off the books soon

It is the little things he is not doing. He doesn't tackle. Mitchell is on 6 tackles right now, Daicos is on 1.

Also according to Supercoach (I know, not the best but still okay), Daicos is the 10th best Collingwood player out there today despite being 3rd in disposals.

Squibber.

Not even close to GOAT status.

That’s what fantasy players want with Lil Nickos.

Can’t have him in the guts running around like a demented chook.

Rack up
The cheapies

 

[Shane Heard]

Beautiful handpass to the feet of his teammate under pressure deep in the back pocket then ..

 

[Shane Heard]

Middle of the 3rd ..still beating his brother.

Impressive.

 

[WalshistheGOAT]

Huge defensive efforts from Nicki. Stood around waiting for his teammates to tackle their opponents and then ran around for a handball once they'd won the ball back as he stood around and watched

Definitely takes short steps when its his turn to tackle.

He heard the siren and could not wait to get another cheap stat.

Infuriating little campaigner.

 

[Meteoric Rise]

Incredibly courageous effort by Nikos to try to get another stat in once the siren blew, made sure he slammed it on his boot to nowhere. So brave.

Excellent gulling Nicki, keep going my supercoach team needs those 1-2s!

He's a great half back flanker. Loves the champagne footy and 1-2s running off the back.

Doesn't have the hardness (as of yet) to be a great, let alone a great mid.

I look forward to the day he doesn't shirk the hard ball gets and physical stuff.

Not watching right now as Brisbane do better when I turn the TV off but I did refresh the footywire live stats and Daicos went from 20 disposals to 23 disposals in 30 seconds. How did he get 3 disposals in 30 seconds?

It’s impressive skills to be such an elite seagull receiver and anticipate the end result/disposal of your teammate who’s working 97% harder than you are.

You can’t teach that..

Macrae came to his senses and moved him back to half back.

I raised by glass of wild Turkey in mock celebration of that fine, nano second of fantasy wonderment when your VC gets a hack kick on the 3 qrt siren..
