Collingwood stars Nick and Josh Daicos have officially inked long-term deals to remain at the club.
The Magpies announced the news on Wednesday with Brownlow Medal favourite Nick, who was already signed until the end of the 2024 season, now tied to the club until 2029.
Like his younger brother, 24-year-old Josh Daicos has also signed a six-year deal, with his new contract taking him through until the end of the 2030 season.
Collingwood GM of Football Graham Wright was thrilled to announce the signing of the Daicos siblings.
“Josh and Nick are both quality young men and talented footballers and we are looking forward to seeing them in the black-and-white stripes for years to come,” Wright said via a statement.
“Josh continues to impress and has really shown consistency in his form across the last couple of seasons. The work that he puts into his craft as a footballer combined with his determination to become better every day should be commended.
“Nick, in only his second season and with 44 games under his belt at the elite level, is continuing to grow as a footballer.
“Like his brother Josh, Nick’s professionalism, preparation and attention to detail is consistently elite and it is these habits which will hold them both in good stead for years to come.
“Both young men are great ambassadors for our Club. They are incredibly positive and outgoing people and have an openness and appetite to continue to learn and develop as people and footballers and we look forward to continuing to support that development at Collingwood.
“I would like to also acknowledge the role of Jeff Browne, Craig Kelly and the wider Collingwood Board for their continued endorsement of the AFL program.”
The Daicos brothers have been crucial in Collingwood’s ladder-leading season so far with the duo both eyeing off All-Australian honours.
