Daicos was nominated for his effort against Gold Coast where he started an incredible chain from the centre square.

Receiving a handball from brother Josh, Daicos had two short kicks in the chain before getting the ball and weaving his way through traffic and then finishing on the run.

A similar running goal against Brisbane was also nominated. Pouncing on a loose ball in the centre circle, Daicos shrugged a would-be tackler, took two bounces and sprinted clear of two Lions before kicking truly from around 40m out.

Reid is also in the running for his goal against Melbourne in just the ninth game of his career. The emerging superstar won a centre clearance and powered away from Demon Christian Petracca with three bounces before kicking the goal from just inside the 50m arc.

Fans were left a little underwhelmed by the goals, especially Daicos’ effort against Brisbane, which wasn’t even picked for the goal of the round.
