The Daicos Storyis about a migrant family doing well, Peter Daicos’s parents left Macedonian for Australia in the 1950s and built a new life in Melbourne. Peter's parents worked hard in their adopted country, but Saturdays were a time Peter and his dad spent together, when they went to watch South Melbourne play football. Peter Daicos’s hugely successful football career followed. Peter played his first game for Collingwood in 1979 retiring in 1993.
Peter is still considered one of the Collingwood Football Club’s greatest ever players: kicking 549 goals and playing 250 games in his 15 year career at the club. He earned a host of awards including: Goal of the Year in 1991, 2 x Collingwood Best and Fairest, 3 x VFL/AFL Team of the Year, a Hall of Fame recipient, Collingwood Team of the Century selection, 5 x Collingwood top scoring goals.
Peter's two sons have followed in their father's footsteps and joined Collingwood, with Josh drafted in 2016 and Nick joining the club under the Father/Son rule in 2021. Both sons were in the Premiership team of 2023, and are considered stars at the Collingwood football club.
In The Daicos Story Peter explores his migrant heritage, his football career and his two sons enjoyment of the game, just as he had.
A truly great story of a sporting family that has created its own traditions and a legacy through the generations.
