I've watched Hawthorn and Geelong win flags with very average rucks, i cant recall a team winning a flag without a gun in the middle
And Lockett in the final quarter of that famous 1994 match. I've never seen anything like it.
The criticism he cops reminds me of the criticism LeBron gets, the GOAT always cops the most just part of being the GOAT
why bother wait 12 yearsAnd yet Daicos is so far from GOAT that it's laughable. Let's talk about this in another 12 years. Until that time, LeBron can be spoken about as GOAT and Daicos is just a gun young player.
Who was this big KPP or ruck who won the flag for us last year?A midfielder just is not as important as a key position player. One midfielder can't win the game for you like a key forward or a ruckman can.
I for instance would take Gawn every day of the week over Daicos. Gawn would actually help the Swans midfield far more than Daicos would as he would not only control the tap work, allowing Sydney's midfield to be far more aggressive at the stoppages but he would provide a very much needed target down the line that the team can kick to and just sort of know Gawn would take a contested mark. That is far more valuable than any single midfielder can be as Gawn is making it easier for the entire midfield.

Gulden is a soft outside receiver please don’t compare him to the GOAT againAlso to be the best of all time you need to clearly, clearly be the best in the competition.
Look at Daicos vs Gulden. Now you may argue Daicos is better based on those stats, but you can't in good faith argue that the stats are that different

How much would 22 x Bont’s beat 22 x Nick Daicos’s by?
Darcy Moore lead the league by a mile in that stat, are you arguing he is the GOAT?He has more one percenters than Daicos.

Stats are very rarely ever considered in determining these things I’ve learntNope, but you said Gulden was just an outside receiver, and his 1 percenters indicate that is not the case.

Do you know what actions are "one percenters"?He has more one percenters than Daicos.
The Gulden comparison doesn't track. Daicos wins easily. He has almost double the clearances and contested possessions per game, and those stats matter. No one cares that Daicos averages slightly more effective disposals, tackles, or goals. It was his clearance work that set him apart this year.
On an aside note - anyone who doesn't have Gary Ablett Jnr as the current GOAT is kidding themselves. He regularly had 35+ disposals and kicked 4 - 5 goals for the Suns when they couldn't win a game.
Do you know what actions are "one percenters"?
and yet despite having more disposals Gulden has more metres gained, more rebound 50's, more inside 50's, more score involvements and more goal assists.
As for Daicos's clearance work, Champion Data said Daicos was outside of the top 100 players in disposal efficiency when he was in the centre, and based on his centre work he would not even be in the AA team.
How is that evidence? If Mcrae is persistently overvoting his pet, then there's your difference between Daicos and the Bont right there. I'd agree that they've been 1 and 2 over the last two years, but I'd argue Bont has been better. I think the Players MVP is usually most accurate compared to Coaches or Brownlow.Overwhelming evidence that Daics is currently the best player in the game and on the fast-track to GOAT status, not that we needed it
