Player Watch Nick Daicos

[Pistol Night]

You have to love this kids confidence.

Said as a piss take probably without realising how right he is. Let him concentrate on a couple of Brownlows and a three-peat first.

Nick and Josh breathe football every minute of everyday.
They drag the old man out to a Balwyn oval all the time for practice.
Nick always watching AFL highlights to better himself.

Most players do this as juniors but these two are like little boys eager to learn and grow.
Never seen anything like it apart from Ablett Jnr.

Ive heard Peter say in a couple of interviews how embarrassed he is when he see's the cameras show him being a nuffy in the stands when Nick or Josh do anything. Just a proud Dad that happens to be a club immortal also. Beautiful family

Pressure and expectation don't seem to bother Nick. In fact he's one of those rare Collingwood players who actually exceeded the hype.

The best of the best at any sport have that mind set. Jordan, Kobe, Ali, T.Woods, Federa etc.

I love it that's how a proud Dad/parent should be.

Nothing to be embarrassed about but embraced.

Absolutely. And he’s certainly got a lot to be proud of!

 

[Vicky Park]

We should never stop thanking the footy gods for the day Peter Daicos walked into Victoria Park. He is the gift that keeps on giving.

Pretty sure that is a fake/fan twitter account.

Dunno. Twitter says you have to state it's a parody account.

Collingwood football club is a follower as is Craig McRae.
Both have the blue tick.

Can't you just pay for a Blue Tick Now?

You can but you can't pose as the Collingwood football club or Craig McRae..

 

[Rhysoid]

You can but you can't pose as the Collingwood football club or Craig McRae..

It's definitely a fan account. It constantly shares/links to a specific Nick daicos Instagram fan account, not his real Instagram.

The Instagram it links to: daicosdelight

Nicks real Instagram: whispernickydaicos

Also I think Fly and collingwood have now unfollowed that account.

That in itself is comforting but it should be disturbing that blue ticks can just be bought - remember the Made in Australia logo and heart foundation tick scandals that pre dated it.

 

[Scodog10]

joff Mitchell is a good value option. He polled 25 votes in a rubbish Hawthorn team 18 months ago and unless Naicos breaks out or JDG finally unleashes he’s not going to have many stealing votes from him

They can be bought as long as you provide evidence you're the person on the account wanting the blue tick.
You cannot pose as someone else if you have the tick.
Unless your account states it is parody.

Someone here may know more than me on this.

Understood FJ good info.

Still following last time I looked around an hour ago.
I believe you though because of the instagram links.
Blah, it was fun either way.

Feck Twitter and Instagram.

 

[Fat Jesus]

I don't want to go on about this but Nick or one single person can report this fake Nick for not stating it's a parody account.
If fake I wouldn't be happy if I was Nick.
I've noticed more and more footballers and sports people tending towards Instagram and less to Twitter.
Especially the younger ones.

The sad part is that both twitter or insta always zero in on the lowest possible denominator and that is always the negative.

 

[Mollythedolly]

It's may be just me but I see many similarities between John and Nick.
I also think Nick is an emerging superstar.
Greening played mainly on the wing.

Add a little of Howe’s marking ability to Nick’s ground ball skill and you’re getting close

Sorry to be crass, but I wish Peter and the Mrs decided to breed a bit more in their prime. Imagine if we could've got 4-5 Daicos'. Maybe even one for the AFLW team. Who knows, maybe a netball prodigy too.

They had a daughter, she decided not to go into footy.

Edited for accuracy and to lessen the chance of anyone thinking they no longer have a daughter.

It’s really crazy how good Nick is. I could legit see him win a Brownlow this year and I’m usually the ultra conservative type in predicting such things from young players.
His running style is so smooth, up right posture yet also has a low centre of gravity. Never really seen anything like it. Super quick, flawless skills by foot and hand, can cover 55+ metres on the run.
