I'm only going by the font of knowledge on all things GOAT Cleansweep17. I think he's a chance but waiting on the chosen one to enter the discussion and educate us old timers. Who would have thought Peter could end up the worst Daicos to play AFL. The kids must get the talent from Mum

Can’t you take this to a Collingwood thread?

I don't know about GOAT, but I'm confident he can be the best player in the AFL. He's a freak and will surely only get better.
They are both outstanding.
Interesting to see if sheez can replicate nick’s year 2.
He had 42 today with 38 effective so he’s off to a good start.

It's not out of the question but also hard to achieve stating the obvious. Who's to say he won't snag another 3 premierships or so and a brownlow or two and a Norm Smith? Then he's in the discussion.
A very hard ask but he's young and had a stellar season. Best player in the comp hands down before that injury. Came back and dominated missing almost two months and was amongst the best both times.
A hard ask, a big one, but not out of the question.

Agreed. He will always be no better than Sheezel.
Half of that will do fine.
Might need to cure his fear of sleeping with the lights off before we start talking GOAT discussions for Nickthekickins.
His contested work in the opening 5 minute more indicative.
Yet another reason it is a gimp flag.

He's already won half as many finals as Dustbin, before his 21st birthday

How many players achieved what Daicos achieved after 2 seasons?

Sheezel easily better in his 1st year than Daicos was in his - given how garbage his team was and how he was used as the gap filler across the entire ground.
O'Meara also better in his first 2 years as well, also in a terrible team.

Walked into a finals team that feeds him to make him look great then.
According to you can't anyone including Frampton do that role?
Wont get him to GOAT status.

Yeah, I don't recall O'Meara leading all individual awards until a late season injury in his second year.
Let's check out O'Meara's second season... oh look, 1 Brownlow vote....
I don't think Daicos will ever be considered the greatest of all time, but in saying that I expect he could be one of the greats of his era.
Also in a purely self serving way I am going to say I think Gulden is just as good as Daicos.

If he doesn't win the brownlow this year, then he will be behind Chris judd on that level.How many players achieved what Daicos achieved after 2 seasons?

Only if you're simplistically binary about awards, and can't recognise the fact Naicos was on his way to winning every individual award that was on offer before he missed the last 4 home and away matches to fall just short...
Needs to have more than 1 season of Dusty quality - sweep every award, plus get a premiership and a Norm Smith in multiple seasons.
