Player Watch Nick Daicos - Can he be the GOAT?

[sr36]

Did Hawthorn, Carlton, Richmond or Melbourne tag Nicky in the 2nd half of the year? I'll give you a clue... the answer rhymes with GO

Oh Walshy. You don't want to be the guy who tells his grandkids that he thought Nick Daicos wasn't that good, because you favoured the Taylor Adams type.

We haven't seen a prospect like this before. On the inside he's got hands, awareness and vision like Diesel and Simon Black to set teammates up, with the dancing moves and acceleration to burst into the clear himself and on the outside he's already quite simply the best.

Three of those sides lost to us, maybe they should have tagged "Nicky"

In my humble opinion

1. Ashcroft
2. Sheezel
3. Daicos

Norm Ashcroft already better. Loves a hard ball

Ashcroft is Joel Selwood - will be a 15 year champion hall of famer. Nick is something else again.

i like cripps. He deserved better when he registered for the draft....

Cripps is a star, but the difference between Nick and Paddy is best summed up by the fact that Nick will never have to stoop to doing Cash Converters commercials.

As a Colingwood fan, I would have thought you’d love CC?

Learnings!

Cripps is marketing it - pretty clear that Carlton supporters are their target market.

Actually we're both in the clear, it is still Petracca most associated with Cash Converters. I know where i'm going to buy skis.

That doesnt suggest he gets a tag.

He gets tagged more than Cripps.

As I've mentioned in another thread, opposition coaches aren't sweating on Cripps as long as he does ineffective dump kicks out of congestion.

What you have to worry with Cripps is if he breaks tackles or he's elite handballs out of congestion. If you sweat on the handball receiver rather than Cripps, it's much more effective. You can't do this with Daicos.

 

[RCAB]

He's a solid B-grader.

Do you think ragging on Nick, makes Dusty better? Or just means you'll get more Dusty hate?

 

[Lunchtime]

Not your best post. Daicos is an A-Grader. That's clear for all to see.

Petracca to Carlton 2025!

I just hope you don't get Houston - your issue is moving the ball from the back half - he'll be perfect for you guys.

Both are a need really.

A dynamic fast-breaking, goal kicking mid.

A brilliant line-breaking kick off HB.
