List Mgmt. Nick Daicos

[Vicky Park]

Think might been when he played for Vic Metro

He’s not exactly having a typical pre-draft year. But he’s not alone either. Next year may be a bit of a shock for him.

Maybe but Maybe Not

 

[Mukesh]

Gee there is a lot on this kids shoulders next year.

Hope we can overlook his early games if not up to everyone's expectations.

A timely and cautionary reminder... be hardly surprising if it takes him a little while to settle in...

Five, ten minutes?

i was gonna give him until early in the second quarter…

of the pre-season game?

With plenty of outside mids in our mix already, I hope the new coach prioritises some inside grunt to complement them all

We suck on the outside moreso because all our guys go in to win the ball.
We need a better balance of approach and system.
Grunt is a word Nathan used and we model our game on that is flawed

I’m glad I’m not alone in seeing this. We to easily get sucked into the contest with 3 mids next to each other... does my head in

It’s so incredibly stupid and frustrating that plebs like us can see it yet highly paid professionals are oblivious

They'd know. With our inside mids, I think they know we'll get smashed in there, unless we try to outnumber, which leaves us outnumbered on the outside - we used to play an extra mid for that reason, but it left them with a plus one or often plus 2 in defence which caused other issues. There's only so much the coaches can do when there is a personnel deficiency.

I’m excited to see him at the club but my expectations will evolve with his on-field performances 2022 and beyond. I hope they end up being very high.

 

[TradeDraft]

Next time we see him Play be next year in the Black and White

And when he’s not getting 30 disposals and 3 Brownlow votes a game many in here will label him a dud

You're saying he got injured before halftime?

 

[The Royal Sampler]

You're saying he got injured before halftime?

No, he came on as medi-sub with 10 mins left and no rotations remaining.

Championships?

 

[Jen2310]

Championships?

Hopefully that goes ahead. They still have time to play them, even in October.

 

[unplugged]

Hopefully he has been sneaking into the Holden Centre Gym with Josh

I assume he is allowed, being part of the academy.

 

[rand corp]

Can't wait to get this kid into the tent and onto the ground

Soon now rand . . . soon.

 

[loki04]

When is the last time Nick played a game of footy?

Similar to Darcy Moores final u18 year, wonder if its club led to try like Darcy have him slip.

Moore was universally rated a top 3 to 5 prospect at the start of his u18 year but slipped to 8 after injury and lack of exposure.

Just seeing him don the 35 at the draft will be brilliant!
