Player Watch Nick Daicos - Can he be the GOAT?

[DopeMaster]

Always good to wait at least 4 years into a career, but yes

Yes to what? Just for clarity, you’re projecting Sheezel goes on to have the better career?

Exactly, all is well and nothing to worry about for the soft players of today.

Especially when you are parked up on the couch, with a beer and a hotdog.

Chances are you are a star on a video game, though I seriously doubt, you have ever played a competitive game of football.

No one said they were soft you donkey, just said there has never been a better time to play this sport. In a few short years it will almost be non contact.

Both will have great careers, as for who will be better, no one would know, hence better to wait until both have had at least 4 years in the system to get a better indication

Lightning backtrack

So unwilling to make a concrete projection. Interesting.

He has shown some things lately that are true great qualities, game winning traits that remind me of Ablett jnr , proper game turning moments when needed.

There’s a hysteria that follows Nick through the media, as media outlets clamour for the “Magpie Army’s” attention.

Robbo on 360 made out the Daicos baulk running towards goal ( vs GC) was something we hadn’t seen in the game.

He nearly had to change his pants!

Runs toward goal out of centre, give & get , baulk & goal from directly in front - nice play but we see it a couple of times a week.

The dichotomy of opinion surrounding Nick is a pushback from the average punter against the media & Collingwood Super-fan led rubbish that Nick is in the realm of GOAT.

He’s a good player who does nice things and collects lots of posessions as his team prioritises him - especially through injuries.

He just isn’t in the same world as the GOAT.

So that means there have been 31 other goals like the GOTY contender from Daics last week? Start uploading

I hope he takes into account the centre clearance, the kick to half forward, and the third possession within 5 seconds that resulted in the goal when he shares the other examples.

Mafs huh…not the strong suit?

“A couple of times a week” means twice, x 2, 1+1 ….

He generally just stockpiles other people's predictions to lol at later

But I think we've got him here, he said "yes"

Lightning backtrack

You keep making these assertions, but never have any evidence

I'm sure you will back down from another avatar wager

Concrete and projection, interesting

It would be like asking who will be better out of Saints and Port in 10 years

 

[CarmenSandiego]

nah tbf that goal was sick. especially considering he was running riot & single handedly dragging them back into the game (again). pies would've lost by 12 goals without him.

And the timing of the goal it was one of a few efforts where he was the reason they were contending to win the game.

This is what I meant as well.

Comprehension, evidently not a strong point.

they'd lose most weeks if he wasn't on their team.

Still waiting from your claim where I have backtracked, should I wait?

Feel free to search them yourself Ol Cobber of the Cornes.

Best first 3 years, I can remember. Significant to also consider that the two years beforehand he barely played any footy at all due to covid. Amazing start to his career.

 

[Engimal v3]

Nope. Daicos is a completely different level to Sheezel. Daicos on current trajectory will be one of the all time greats.

Sheezel will have a very respectable Shane Crawford type career.

Daicos will be known as a guy who played in the same era as Harry Sheezel

Yep we are very lucky. Instant impact, some all time greats took a few years to get going
