Collingwood superstar Nick Daicos has been subbed off with a calf injury during the Magpies’ win over Melbourne on King’s Birthday. Daicos copped an inadvertent knee to his shin from Demon Alex Neal-Bullen in the closing stages of the third term. He limped from the field in discomfort, but was able to to return to the field in the final quarter. However, with the Pies opening up a 40-point lead with 12 minutes remaining, coach Crag McRae decided to take Daicos out of the game.
Asked if he fed off the crowd, Maynard told Channel Seven post-match: “We all do, don’t we ... it’s all part of the game.” As much as the reigning premiers were again much greater than the sum of their parts, Melbourne’s field kicking was horrible and their delivery into attack often gave their forwards no realistic chance. It is instructive that Melbourne had two more scoring shots, but never looked like being able to kick a winning score.
