Mega Thread Nick Daicos - Can he be the GTWEB? Part 2

[demondavey]

He’ll look pretty average when the elder brigade calls time. Has been absolutely carried. I bet when Collingwood drop away he’ll jump ship.

 

[demondavey]

I honestly can’t believe he had 27 touches today.

Had zero impact on the game.

Pretty typical…

 

[RUNVS]

He let's his performances do the talking. That's the best way to prove a point. No need for words.

He is the Forrest Gump of the AFL.

 

[ashep]

Bloke should be in middle management because he's got nothing but soft skills.

Exactly, he gets the little one two and back again, in every game he plays in.

However i did see him try and tackle a player tonight, got shrugged off, but he tried.

'the glitch in the matrix, he's turning it it over Nick Daicos'

lol

the over-rating of this guy is what is at GOAT levels

collingwood fans, don’t let his partner near Sam Mitchell’s wife, we could have another Z Merrett type blow up on our hands.

If Daicos played for Fremantle he would not be talked about 25% as much as he currently is.

 

[Cherki]

He just doesn’t add much. Very vanilla player. Also not a moments guy. Bit of an icing on the cake type player who relies on others to do the heavy lifting.

Geez blokes like Dusty and Dangerfield would’ve absolutely bullied him out there today.

I think he is Dwayne's love child the way he carries on like a pork chop

If he played for Melbourne he wouldn’t

Mmmmmm he wouldn’t get talked about at all on the East coast

 

[dmark]

Bit weird this thread, Collingwood thread, and no Collingwood fans involved tonight

 

[demondavey]

It’s the whole circus of jerking off the boys club. Son of Peter. Biggest club in the country. Great skills, yeah, but very overrated and has been carried by some really experienced players. Pendlebury and Sidebottom aren’t getting faster or better. They’ve done the heavy lifting for 3 years now.

It’ll be very interesting when he has to step up.

 

[RAPPA]

The pile on is ridiculous. He’s a magician. Carried out an elite disappearing act in the final quarter of a prelim.

 

[Shane Heard]

2 marks

Clug, zork and Dunkley had 20 between them.

Lil Nicky can’t break free.

Just swanning around receiving handpasses from others who do the hard work.

He’s the Chris Angel of footy…

Probably this one

Kudos for the effort

No actually it was the willmont one, so there you go, my apologies he tried to tackle twice, both were shrugged off

Sorry was just the one attempted tackle then.

Pies supporters were adamant Daicos' first 4 seasons were clearly superior to Judd's.

A truly dominant, gamebreaking 2005 finals series by Judd (on top of a Brownlow the year before) has him ahead IMO. Judd across 2003-2005 made an art form of winning hard balls at stoppages and bursting free to score or create goals. A better inside/outside balance suited for the big moments of finals.

Daicos has had some decent finals but is yet to put his side on his back like some of the other star midfielders we talk about. Maybe that will come as he physically develops. But he turns 23 soon so that excuse will eventually run out.

But you know what Fadge is like...he has more excuses for Daicos than a politician breaking an election promise. No doubt Fadge will create some new excuse soon and tell us all in due course.

It’s not Fadge, it’s doppleganger with PLaYA RaTiNgZ

If Ashcroft played the 23 GF, we’d be going for 3 in a row.

Idc.
