Player Watch Nick Daicos - Can he be the GOAT?

[Jock1eyemcpie]

Just a shame Cripps can’t do it when it counts. Let’s look at the biggest games of their lives
Nick Daicos - Grand Final

Possessions - 29
Contested - 11
Score involvements - 8


Patrick Cripps - Preliminary Final

Possessions- 13
Contested - 5
Score Involvements - 6

Cripps goes missing when it counts. I suppose he is not alone. He has plenty of Carlton friends that do the same.

Curnow goes missing in finals too, kicked less goals then mcstay did despite playing an extra game

 

[WalshistheGOAT]

Daicos is averaging 1.3 less contested disposals then Walsh is, despite going back to play in the backline

And Walsh is beating him out on just about every other statistic thats recorded... Congrats Nick!

Daicos just turned 21 in January, and Walsh will be 24 soon. But yes, congrats Nick.

Daicos only played two finals bud, and had 29 disposals, 11 contested and 8 score involvements in the grand final and 28 against the giants with 9 contested coming off a knee injury. The other had the reigning brownlow medallist and reigning Coleman medallist and couldn’t even get to the grand final

Walsh also played more games then daicos in the finals so obviously he had a better chance at winning best finals player ya peanut.

Why make up lies?

Lets compare the pair... Which do you think is playing better footy this year? I'll give you a clue - The one on the right wears Navy Blue most weekends.

Yes let’s compare the pair

Yes let’s compare the pair

Scroll up, something about best finals player... Averages more contested possessions and actually lays tackles... Should be up there somewhere

Scroll up, Walsh played more finals then daicos did last season but only one of them won a flag.

I’m sure Walsh can’t wait for his ten year reunion of “best finals player” so he can celebrate with all his teammates again.

Oh you want to play the little game of judging on a few games this seasons not their careers. Such a Carlton thing to do.

The only thing Carlton has more than Collingwood does in the last 25 years are spoons and salary cap breaches.

Bar has dropped, they’ve given up on suggesting he is the GOAT and have picked a much smaller (but equally insurmountable) bill to die on, by comparing him to the clearly more impactful Sam Walsh

Weird to bring up the one flag as a point, Will Langford has at least one and he’s not a GOAT contender, solid contributor in his flag year too

GAS never won a flag, but is considered the GOAT by many

Anyway just having fun reading this drivel

The fact you’re trying to compare a 21 year old with a blokes who’s almost 24 speaks volumes.

Oh I’m not, I’m comparing the 19 year old Harry Sheezel to him actually.

I compare Walsh to Gulden, Butters, Rozee, Heeney - those types.

Daicos is a poor mans Harry Sheezel.

Yep... Truly bizarre.

Anyway, Jason Castagna's clearly a better player than The Gul, he's got 3 flags, Daicgul only has 1.

I don’t remember castagna ever winning an Anzac eve medal, I remember daicos winning an Anzac medal though. Big games for big clubs.

If you were offered Harley Reid or Nick Daicos for the rest of their careers is anyone outside of Collingwood fans taking Daicos?

Probably not, I reckon the fact his best young prospect in the game lasted maybe a season at best puts this to bed.

Best it cellar dweller, you don’t have any good kids to be getting involved in the convo.
This was last season btw

Yeah but your best and fairest is named after a jailbird

The classic playing the man and not the ball response, a sure sign you admit defeat in the argument.

You miss daicos winning the coaches award for best young player last season? Pretty sure that with the rising star in 2022 refutes your argument completely.
