But I honestly don't think most of them act like that though, that's just so generalised.
Also he is incredibly talented, has won them a flag and comes from club royalty, of course they're going to laud him.

Yep, the Nick will be GOAT thread was a piss take that certain neanderthals took seriously.
It's doubtful he'll be the best player ever, he doesn't have to be.
While he wasn't best on ground last year, he was probably the difference, and on grand final day, that's all you need.

Yep. Bobby was obviously best on but Nick had a huge influence on the game.
I like Nick a lot, he was one of the first people to reach out to Ashcroft when he did his knee. Just seems a ripper kid that people want to bring down.

If he didn't play for Collingwood, the level of hate would be much less.

To be fair the thread title here is meant to drum up shit instead of just celebrating both players.

FIGJAM was never really in that mix. Nor was Hird.
What an absolute load of codswallop.
If you want to be the best, you've got to beat the best, and what a magnificent crop of young talent we have coming through.
Daicos
Ashcroft
Sheezel
Reid
I'll even throw Lohmann in there - that kid is a superstar!

Daicos is incredibly impactful with his disposal. He’s an integral part of Collingwood and their success in playing fast and free flowing football. Incredible by foot which is actually not the case for a lot of midfielders.
Let’s not put down one player to celebrate another.

I think the better comparison is Will v Sheezel.
Same draft class.
Both guns.
Will be an interesting watch over their careers in 10 years time.
Ashcroft's hands are some of the best I've seen in a long time.

Bro Daicos will be rotting. The pink mold has started already. He’d have more success moving to the GC

Both guns. Both teams are happy with who they have. Just enjoy it
Interesting that the Brisbane and Collingwood supporting posters are posting respectfully in this thread, and it's the supporters of other teams stinking it up....
Many being the usual suspects...

One bloke coming off a knee injury and doing remarkable things to impact a grand final, the other from his 2nd season been his sides best player and top 5 players in the comp.. both incredible young players, but Nick had prob gone past Judd as the best young player in my lifetime (43 years) .. Let’s celebrate both instead of trying to bring one of them down,

Ashcroft vs Daicos vs Harley Reid will be the new Voss vs Hird vs Buckley war.

Harley Reid has brought life back to the Eagles, but besides a few nice goals and a few fend offs he has done SFA compared to what Daicos and Ashcroft have done..
The main advantage both Nick & Will have is, as top picks that are father sons they got to go to succeful clubs, Harley as pick 1 goes to a basket case where Harley is immediately expected to do the heavy lifting.,
