Josh Daicos has claimed bragging rights over his brother after closing out a glittering campaign with a maiden Copeland Trophy win as Collingwood’s club champion.
The All-Australian pair were neck-and-neck for most of the count before the elder Daicos streaked ahead of Nick following his knee fracture in round 21, earning the coveted honour of best and fairest in a premiership season.
Brayden Maynard tied with Nick Daicos for second, only four votes ahead of first-year Magpie Tom Mitchell, who polled strongly despite a form slump in July that led to him twice being picked as the sub in the second half of the season.
