Trade deadline: Nick Daicos Rejected a Contract Worth $172.6million From Essendon…see..more… CHAT between a famous father and son pairing in recent days provided a timely reminder of who to listen to and who to turn the volume down on this winter.
Nick Daicos produced one of the best debut seasons in AFL/VFL history last year to win the Rising Star Award, but now the budding Collingwood superstar is the clear Brownlow Medal favourite after winning the Anzac Day Medal against Essendon on Tuesday.
The 20-year-old averaged 36 disposals across the first five rounds, before amassing 40 disposals – for the second straight week – to go with 604 metres gained, 10 score involvements and two final-quarter goals to lead the Magpies to a stunning come-from-behind victory in front of 95,179 people at the MCG.
