The AFL season is in full swing and the competition is heating up. One of the most intriguing storylines of the season is the challenge posed by Collingwood coach Nathan Buckley to St Kilda to tag Magpie star Jordan Daicos despite his injury woes.
The challenge was issued by Buckley after Daicos was ruled out of the Round 8 clash between the two sides due to a hamstring injury. Despite the setback, Buckley believes that Daicos can still be a major factor in the game and that St Kilda should still tag him.
The challenge has been accepted by St Kilda coach Alan Richardson, who believes that tagging Daicos is a necessary part of their game plan. Richardson has stated that he will be looking to put a lot of pressure on Daicos and limit his influence on the game.
The challenge has been met with mixed reactions from both sides of the fence. Some believe that it is a smart move by Buckley to put pressure on St Kilda and force them to focus on Daicos, while others feel that it is a risky move and could backfire if Daicos is able to have an impact on the game.
Regardless, the challenge has certainly added an extra layer of intrigue to the upcoming clash between the two sides. It will be interesting to see how St Kilda responds to the challenge and if they are able to limit Daicos’ influence on the game. It will also be interesting to see how Daicos responds to the challenge and if he is able to overcome his injury woes and have an impact on the game.
No matter what happens, the challenge posed by Buckley has certainly added an extra layer of excitement to the upcoming clash between Collingwood and St Kilda. It will be fascinating to see how both sides respond to the challenge and who comes out on top in this intriguing battle.
