Peter Daicos, AFL Football Legend and super star available for guest speaking/presentations, appearances and training sessions.
By all accounts Peter Daicos son of Macedonian immigrant parents should have been a champion of the round ball game but instead he went on to become one of the AFL's and Collingwood's most skilled legends of the game. Nick names like the The Macedonian Marvel, The Magpie Wizard and The Magician followed but the words "freak" and "magician" do not do what Daics did justice. While they made for great headlines the truth behind the talent was a lot of hard work, preparation and practice. Watch vision of Daics in action and many of the so called "freak" plays were in fact practiced over and over and then executed perfectly in the heat of battle.
Since retirement Daics has concentrated on a successful media and speaking career mixed with his own business enterprises. If we can apply Daics approach to anything we want out of life then we too can enjoy success in our endeavours and this alone makes it worthwhile to meet Daics and have him speak.
