Nick Daicos

[beerbandit]

He's pretty good but probably already near the peak of his powers. Judd for example was better in his second year and still had another 20 % of improvement in him

Disagree, we haven’t really seen him in the middle yet.

He goes forward when games on the line and snags goals, I think we’ve found the heir to Leigh Matthews throne!!

Nepotism at its finest. Still a gun

I thought his dad was joking when he said he was better than him before he was drafted…

Do you know what Nepotism is

I do.

Star

Moore kept you in the game, without looking at his possessions. Do you really think nick was best on ground

I had De Goey or Langford in front of Daicos at 3/4 time. By FT it wasn't close (though De Goeys game was very good)

Remember when people tried to tell you JHF was better lol

I've never seen a player stamp his mark on the competition as quickly as Nick has. With all due respect not even Judd was dominating like this in his second year

Correct!

What are Collingwood supporter’s obsession with pointing this out? No club had any access to Daicos apart from collingwood despite not being entitled to him (note that this is a criticism of the laughable father son rule)

I'm getting the same feeling like watching a young Federer coming up through the ranks again.

 

[Reg Grundy35]

Shezzle is already doing it. He is averaging 30 possessions under clarko in his first year

so you'd take Sheezle before Daicos??

Nick Daicos is a freak - dominating the competition in your second year should be illegal. It's early days, but in years to come he might reach the league of Leigh Matthews, Wayne Carey and the Abletts.

Three of the four players you've mentioned were physical beasts. They were physically intimidating.

He may reach the level of Ablett Jnr, who I rate below the other 3.

I suspect most posting in this thread are AFL era footy observers.

Norf fans lol, they wouldn’t be told any different.

To be fair, what JHF was doing as a junior against men was extremely impressive.

Go read some of the old Naicos threads on the draft board, good for a giggle

AFL is a fair step up from SANFL mate, don’t get me wrong I think he’ll make a fine player but he’s nowhere near Nick, never will be either.

Even better was Hawks supporters arguing Newcombe was better.

 

[Apex36]

To be fair, most of his touches are from kick-ins and follow up possessions from said kick-ins.

He had 3 kick ins today. This is the dumbest s**t anyone could come up with.

I’m not sure you understand what nepotism is.

 

[Fadge]

Can you please update the thread title to include the term 'GOAT'?

 

[Strapping Young Lad]

Found it baffling that he wasn’t bid on until pick 4. Seemed so likely to be a generational type like GAJ.

What would it have mattered?

 

[CarterS]

Great player.

Lol, throwing words around without knowing what they mean.

I bet you think Ash Johnson's style is "laconic" too.
