He is the primary target in a Hawthorn forward line that thrives on chaotic, fast-paced entry.</span></p><p style="line-height:1.38;margin-bottom:8pt;margin-top:0pt;" dir="ltr"><span

AFL’s favourite son is averaging 32 disposals in 2026 and with Pendles out, the Pies’ reliance on Daicos goes to another level.</span></p><p style="line-height:1.38;margin-bottom:8pt;margin-top:0pt;"
