Player Watch Nick Daicos - Can he be the GOAT?

[Worm4]

A no contest, the Carlton 3 were bog average VFL level footballers.

Shaz just couldnt get on the park.

Dow and Obrien would have been superstars ...










If only they could hit a target, stop falling over, run both ways, and contribute a bit of pressure whilst playing

That’s as rare as hens teeth for Juddy, he spilt more overhead marks then he took.

I was trying to find one of Nick, but the internet couldn't provide me with any evidence

No guarantee he held that either. It’s a still frame picture after all.

How has this become about Carlton or other club players, where no one has claimed they are in contention to be a GOAT

Surely the kid should be compared to others in the GOAT conversation

Greg Williams is the most skilful player I have ever seen. Second is not even close

It is close. What the hell are you talking about? Ablett Sr and Jr? Wayne Carey? Leigh Matthews? Shaun Burgoyne? Williams was perhaps the best handballer the game has ever seen, but he would not even play in today's game, he'd be running around the VFL picking up 50 touches, the AFL would be too fast for him.

And you know this because....

Matt Priddis, Matt Crouch, Tom Mitchell are all lightning compared to Williams.

Matt Priddis, Matt Crouch, Tom Mitchell are all lightning compared to Williams.

So the greatest of all time can only apply to players currently in the AFL system. Righteo then....

No one said he ISNT a star ? Who said he wasn't I dare you to find where anyone said he wasn't a star.
Read the thread !! Is about being the GOAT which he isn't. Comprehension isn't your strength really is it ?

Comprehension ok.
Nobody is claiming he is the GOAT, how can he be, he has played just over 50 games (but what a 50 games)
This thread is about can he get to the level where he can be the GOAT.

I say yes he can. So can Harley Reid and also a couple of the other young up and coming stars.

Long way to go obviously but he has the potential to do so, as he has excelled in each area of his development thus far.

If somebody put a thread stating Harley Reid- can he be the GOAT, I wouldn't deny the possibility, as he has obvious star factor qualities but again a long way to go in his career.

As for Nick, he is arguably the best user of the ball in the comp, now he gets CP's and kicks goals.

Tracking beautifully in my opinion.

So again, can Nick (in the future) be the GOAT?

My bloody oath he can.

Yep.

Sorry.

His career is there to be tracked for the next dozen or so years in his quest to be the GOAT.

I am in agreeance with all three parts of your post.

 

[Worm4]

Sorry.

Its not his quest. It's yours

 

[Fadge]

Its not his quest. It's yours

Not at all.

He's clearly a kid who wants to be the very best footballer he can be, and as his coach says about all his players 'he has no ceiling'...

Daicos historians will be grateful for threads like these, we're documenting history as it happens

He’s 3 years into his career of course he isn’t the goat or even in that conversation yet, fadge just getting carried away.

I think Fly suggested he's a future club captain. Can easily see that happening.

(He'll still have that irritating private school accent though...)

It’s strange how invested Carlton fans are with this Daicos fella.

You beat me to it, unreal.

 

[Worm4]

You beat me to it, unreal.

I know, imagine if someone like Charlie Curnow got a goal from a free kick , so comments from Pies supporters wouldn't be that high would they lol

 

[beerbandit]

Not sure why you expecting a Bagger to understand!

GOATcos in just his 3rd season is now the most impactful stoppage and clearance player in the game.

He already showed how good he is with ball in hand on the outside.

And he is has just ticked over 50 games and still putting size on his small frame.

Gaz Jnr was still a speculative small forward at this point of his career, it wasnt until his sixth season after had already played 100 games, when he had the size, power and endurance to be moved to midfield.

Very happy to run with this, GOATcos has a nice ring to it

What’s Charlie Curnow got to do with a Nick Daicos related thread ?

there's a million players mentioned in this thread .you might as well start copying and pasting your comment for every poster who has mentioned any player other than Nick Daicos. I will wait to see the results

You replied to my post by mentioning Charlie Curnow when it’s a Nick Daicos thread, if you can point me in the direction of the Charlie Curnow thread I’ll be more then happy to post about GOATcos there.

BTW you’ll be waiting a while on these results.

Again like Judd he doesn't need to.

Their job is to be their to rove the spillages not fly against talls.
