He does NOT take all the kick ins. Maynard took a couple, Moore kicked in and I think pendles did once. He takes about half the kick ins. Because he’s their best kick. He’s got some fair genes. It’s like when Ablett junior was running around . If you’re lucky enough to see their dads play and their kids are just as good, it’s quite amazing. As Teflon said, we really need some father/son superstars. I’m looking at you Roo…
Agree Moods he definitely didn’t take all the kick-ins against St.Kilda. I saw Moore take one. Then I saw two different Collingwood players take them other times in that match. Can’t recall who they were. One took a kick+in then did a short pass to Daicos who was deep in the pocket. Exactly what is often done when Sinclair places himself deep in the pocket for the short pass from the kick out.
I haven’t read anyone being critical of Sinclair when he does the 1- 2 or getting stats when he runs out when kicking out. It a setplay that most clubs use if they have a skillful, pacy half back flanker.
I’ve just got to live long enough for me to get to see the 3 Roolets doing what those Daicos boys are showing us. They are 2 talented lads.

In key forward posts being fed by some Hayes boys as well - I hope.
Given Nick is around 193 and Cath is at least 182 I'd say the boys are going to be tall units.
Should be drafted around 2030-33 and take the reins from the King Brothers in key forward positions as the Kings exit as multiple premiership players at the Saints.
Agree Loris, the Daicos boys are both good but Nick is an absolute jet for a 19 YO.
The best first and a bit seasons since Judd IMO.
Can't recall when I've seen a better 2nd year player.
Doesn't mean he is going to keep getting better, but if he maintains this level he'll have a very good career.
There's only one rule in the jungle! When the LYON's hungry, he eats!
Stuff Nick Daicos. He's getting the benefit of being in a very good team, with very good coaches. Not to mention an icon in Pendlebury to teach him and a mentor in his older brother
Maybe the Daicos boys and Jordan DeGoey all decide to go for a drive with Jack Ginnivan and Jack crashes and they all get suspended and it derails Collingwood's year.

Roo’s kids will probably end up as QBs
Oh wash your mouth out B.M - don’t take away my hopes D.B Cooper has just motivated me to set new goals. To be around & kicking for 2030-2033, to see Roo & Lenny’s boys to strut their stuff in R W & B. I don’t think I’d be up for plane flights to the US, to see QBs, or I’d have the nous to understand the rules of that game.
Was listening to SEN radio about 6:30 this evening and the guy from Champion data reckons that Daicos is the 2nd highest rated player in the competition for his impact on games......care to guess who is rated number 1 .....and with an unprecedented high rating so far this season....our very own Mitch Owens !
I’d rate Bontempelli the number 1 player in the league right now and very closely followed by Jeremy Cameron
If I had to choose a midfielder to come into our team (and I could only pick 1 player from Oliver, Dawson, Petracca, or the Bont) I’d choose Bontempelli

Lol, looks like some of the self-uppercuts missed!
2 goals, 9 score involvements and team high 6 inside 50s…
That’s pretty good from kick-ins
Against Saints???
10 coaches votes, but wasn't influential in the win
Had we kicked 6.3 in the last, instead of 3.6. We wouldn't be having this conversation and we'd be asking how the F*** they could just leave him behind the ball all day.
