Player Watch Nick Daicos - Can he be the GOAT?

[Chookaradley]

I think he is legitimately a chance to win 5 Brownlows. He's that good.

 

[Madblue]

I'm not engaging in this discussion.

You've shown your cards, and the term for it is 'hypocritical'.

Says the king of hypocrisy

Now that he has won the prestigious ABC best player award, it's the skies the limit from here on in. Have they updated Wiki yet ?

"The ABC is Australia's most trusted source for news and information. For more than 90 years it has ensured audiences are informed and educated with impartial coverage..."

Seems pretty unarguable when you look at that.

Well, that confirms it. Daicos wins the only unarguable award within AFL circles.

Wins the coaches award by 4 votes... Imagine if Flybagger didn't give him a charity 5 voter vs the Blues.

Extremely brave to win despite Vossy trying to rig it in the second Pies vs Blues game. Simply too good to hold down. What a champion!

Or if as you pointed out Voss didn't rig it by not giving him the votes he deserved in that game.

And doesn’t even rank in the Top 3 of the Players MVP award. LOL

Disgraceful stuff

Wonder why Nick never gets nominated by his peers as a finalist for MVP? I think last season he didn’t even get nominated as one of the 3 options in his own club. I think it says a lot about his impact.……more sizzle than sausage you’d imagine.

 

[danielnajdek]

So many offended Blues fans in here. It's so good to see that a 21 yr old pisses so many people off.

Probably don't respect the squibs they see him do out on the field

Cripps 0/2 so far. Hopefully he can win the Brownlow so the Blosers have something to celebrate after all they’ve worked for

Leigh Matthews Trophy (MVP)
1. Marcus Bontempelli
2. Patrick Cripps
3. Isaac Heeney
4. Nick Daicos
5. Jesse Hogan

2 x 29 year olds
2 x 28 year olds
1 x 21 year old

Yep, he’s such a LOL player. Give me a spell

Did he win the HS votes. That would be the highlight of his season.

Walsh came 2nd when he was 21...

Oh my

 

[boncer34]

Just to take this theory to its extreme. Lets assume Fly is rorting the system. Lets assume he is inflating Daicos's games and awarding votes he doesnt deserve every chance he gets. Lets assume that in any match where Daicos votes its the least possible amount of votes he gets from one coach is what he really deserves and wherever this occurs its the opposition coach giving Daicos the lesser amount (even where the alternative is another Collingwood player) because we know McRae is cheating every chance he gets.

I think that sums up the postulation a good number of posters are going at, all be it in the above senario McRae is going full rort.

Now lets look at the games where Daicos has got votes and what the possible break down is

Round Zero 2-0
Round One 4-1 or 3-2
Round Three 3-2
Round Six 5-3
Round Eight 5-5
Round Nine 5-5
Round Ten 5-5
Round Eleven 5-4
Round Twelve 4-4
Round Fourteen 5-2
Round Sixteen 5-3 or 4-4
Round Seventeen 2-0

So lets makes the real Daicos votes those which are the lower amount in any game, the ones we "know" the oppo coach gave and then remove the cheating Fly additional votes.

That would take away the following votes starting at round zero 2,2,1,2,0,0,0,1,0,3,2,2. Where there are two possible combos I have assumed the bigger margin cause Fly we know wanted to cheat as much as possible.

Thats 15 votes, so now we know Nick should be on 69 votes not 84. If Fly wasnt so crooked then Neale and Gulden would be ahead of Nick by 2 votes and Warner only 1 behind.

Still that doesn't seem right because we know Nick shouldnt be rated anywhere near those 3 let alone the big guns up ahead.

I reckon there is an additional subterfuge going on here. I reckon Fly is slinging some of the other coaches to bump up Nick. Otherwise how could he get so many undeserved votes. Once I have worked out who are the dirty coaches I will start on whose paying the umps.

Can you walk me through how you got those numbers?

For example Round 1 you say 2 but shouldn't it be 3? 4-1?


Appreciate its an old post but this is the page that opened when I clicked on the thread.

 

[Doggy Dan]

How old you gotta be for best young player? Sheezel seemed to dominate that award this year, but I thought Daicos was super young?

 

[beerbandit]

Walsh came 2nd when he was 21...

Oh my

And did people sit here slandering him for that? Or most likely people were applauding a great achievement.

Probably time to grow up a bit boys.

Yes, they did actually

Oh my

And FWIW Daicos came 2nd when he was 20

Coaches don’t know what they’re talking about. Seagull

 

[adammania9]

There’s a pretty obvious reason the Coaches Award is highly regarded and the players MVP is not so.

If the players’ opinions on football held as much weight, they’d be coaching themselves.

 

[Sonny Hayes]

Coaches votes is the best award in the comp the rest are a joke

Nick wins Coaches award

B..B… But the MVP

Some of you are actually clowns
