Moved Thread Nick Daicos or Sam Walsh?

[PrinceCharles]

Is this 'Naicos' thing going to stick? Reminds me of a type of salad.

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Walsh had the runs on the board at this point.

 

[BringouttheGimp]

Seems every half decent young player instantly gets compared to Sam. He is the benchmark.

Has left Smith and Rowell in his dust in the past. Those two admittedly had runs on the board through the midfield so the comparisons were valid. Suspect he’ll do the same to the current flavour of the month.

Flavour of the month.. does that come with a participation award as well?

 

[WalshistheGOAT]

Yep because clearances are much more crucial than effective kicks and goals

You said he played in the guts that game... he did not attend a single centre bounce and had almost no influence on any stoppage clearances he attended... wot???

 

[danster168]

Nick Daicos is basically Jake Bowey who gets fed the ball at every opportunity and inflates his stats with kickins

 

[Ginnieboy]

Yeah so were a lot of draftees over the years.

And how many who made it didn’t dominate the junior comp?

 

[Ginnieboy]

Isnt there an entire board for threads like this? Why hasnt this been moved there

We were waiting for you permission to do so.

 

[Ginnieboy]

You'd go Cripps and Walsh every time.

They haven’t let you down yet!

 

[PrinceCharles]

They haven’t let you down yet!

They haven't, can't say the same about the other 20.

 

[danster168]

And how many who made it didn’t dominate the junior comp?

huh? you mean how many dominated the junior comp yet failed at afl level? plenty. too many to count. But Jonathan O'Rourke, Toumpas, Cale Morton, Trengove, Buntine etc.

So top drafted mids are not worth it? Better off using rookie picks?

Also, Daicos was voted the best player in the u14 national carnival, skipped the u16s for school footy, was then clearly the no1 player in his u18 year, first season in the AFL he is described by many experts ‘the best first year player OOT’ yet you, YOU, don’t think he’s going to make it lol, get off the gear dude.

There’s a reason you’re talking s**t on BF at 1am on Monday rather than working on an AFL clubs recruitment strategy.

Dude, they said the same thing about Hogan. The experts all said he was going to be one of the greats. You've bought into the hype wayyyyy too much. he's playing back flank. he's a good one at that.

Also, when did I say that Daicos wasn't going to make it? please show me where I said that. You need to work on your comprehension.

I'd take Sam Darcy before Daicos comfortably and Jason Horne-Francis will be the better player also.

Have always rated Daicos better than JHF, who I think has always been overrated

Comparing Walsh and Daicos

Daicos is more poised by foot, better sideways movement, but will play mostly as a balanced or outside mid

Walsh can play inside, balanced, outside, but isn't as good by foot. Walsh's strength is his tank and using that to constantly get to the next contest

[Wargreymon90]

Walsh at this stage as Daicos hasn’t proven himself as a midfielder.

 

[The Dougster]

Naicos.. is a symbol of football and how far you can take it.. infinite man.. no limits to what you can do.. the magic that can come from what's in one's cranium man.

maaan

Both Nick and Sam superstars well on there way. I hate these comparisons.

Well, you have Naicos and Jaicos.
As a Pies supporter I'm not fond of these nicknames
