CONFIRMED: His Efforts and Dedication Have Taken Him to Another Position – CEO Craig Kelly Makes Bold Promise About Nick Daicos
In a move that has the AFL world buzzing, Craig Kelly — CEO of the Collingwood Football Club — has confirmed exciting news about rising star Nick Daicos. Known for his unmatched composure, elite skills, and football intelligence well beyond his years, Daicos has quickly established himself as one of the premier defenders in the league. Now, he’s being promised a future like no other.
Craig Kelly, a former premiership player himself, spoke passionately in a press conference earlier today about the club’s vision for its young gun.
“Nick has redefined what it means to be a modern defender. His commitment, professionalism, and sheer love for the game are second to none. He’s not just playing the game — he’s changing it,” Kelly said.
The Big Promise
In what some are calling a game-changing announcement, Kelly confirmed that Daicos will soon be transitioning into a leadership role, with strong indications that he could be groomed as Collingwood’s future captain.
“We believe in rewarding effort, loyalty, and excellence. Nick embodies all of that and more. As a club, we’re committed to building our future around him — not just on the field, but as a leader of men,” Kelly added.
While no official timeline has been given, insiders suggest the move could begin as early as the 2026 season. The current leadership group, led by Darcy Moore, is fully supportive of Daicos’ development and has been mentoring him behind the scenes.
What This Means for Collingwood
Daicos’ potential elevation into a leadership role marks a significant shift for the Magpies. It signals a long-term investment in youth, culture, and consistency. With a core group that includes emerging stars and established leaders, the club appears poised for a sustained period of success.
The announcement also cements what many already believed — that Nick Daicos isn’t just the future of Collingwood; he may very well be the future of the AFL.
