Are you saying it's more accurate to assess a player based on a stats sheet, than to actually watch them play, and see what they do with the ball and how much impact they have on the game?
Oh boy...

Again, incredibly basic and childish

demondavey - remember, SOTY'S comments originated in response to this post.
And he's the childish one?
It's really a bit of a laugh, isn't it?
Their own obsession with Naicos lends them to complaining about their own B&F, where Darcy (as a stuffing damned good player) wins the award and is basically ridiculed for it.
I know Naicos is a gun/jet and I think we'd all acknowledge this more often if they weren't constantly having such a bukkake about him all the time.

Suggesting I don’t rate Ablett Snr for example which in turn suggests I don’t rate Daicos?
Ok…..
Makes sense Fadge.

The irony of this is that all you lot do is rate him on stats.

Love than you guys are all about wishing what is to happen in the future...
'Dur Hur Hur, Youse guys are going to fall of a cliff and Daicos will sign with Tasmania!'
Next minute, Pies continue to finish top 4 and contend for premierships, with Daicos being the best player in the game, and still wearing the number 35 for Collingwood.

He suggested I didn’t rate Ablett Snr….
If anything is childish I think it’s that comment

Yes, couldn’t agree more.
Nick Daicos is a star of the competition. One of the best starts to a career in history. Exciting and scrupulously fair.
And seems a genuinely great person.
Yet, many non Collingwood supporters hate him. I have always loved watching the best players no matter what team they played for.
But the media obsession and sites like this one contribute to people disliking Daicos because the adulation is way out of control.
the 2-3 Collingwood supporters who post daily on this site can’t understand the hate for Daicos but if they checked their ego for a second, they would understand their ridiculousness contributes significantly to that hate. (And worse still openly troll people to get a reaction and then brag about the success of the site, just weird)

How does it feel to continually hope that another club will one day be as bad as your club actually is, and that the other club will one day have the mass walkout of players you are currently seeing at your club?
Oh boy.

To the contrary....
I fully understand the hate for Daicos from opposition supporters.
It's borne from jealousy and the fact he plays for the most hated club in the land.
And I wouldn't have it any other way.
He is going to fry your brains for the next decade, and we'll just sit back and enjoy it.

True w should just stick with the stats that show that Nick Daicos is already the greatest ever brownow vote poller the game has ever seen. Pretty extraordinary stats those ones.

Have you not seen him constantly throw his head back, stage for free kicks, appeal/whinge to the umps? He's one of the main offenders in the league at playing for frees.

This isn't the banter thread, as poor and desperate as that 'banter' is.
But keep living between 1968 and 1987, if you were even living at that time in the first place...
Be my guest.
The only difference is that TDK has actually left Carlton, after being as disinterested in 2025 as I've ever seen any half decent player in my lifetime.
Meanwhile, Daicos again performed as the best player in the competition in 2025, and will be there again in 2026 and beyond.
Feel free to have your little fantasies though...

DD wants his bad takes hidden. The panic is setting in as the accolades continue to pile up.

Not really, just wondering what Fadge will do if this thread dies
