    Macedonians of the AFL

    This thread is about the Macedonians who play in the AFL, Australian Football League.


    Nick Malceski: he plays for the Sydney Swans FC. there isn't much videos of him:
    YouTube - Chick bump on Malceski

    Peter Daicos: he played for the Gollingwood Magpies FC. he is from the Lerin area which explains his last name. His nickname is the Macedonian marvel:
    YouTube - Peter Daicos 'The Macedonian Marvel'
    And he is a legend of the game.

    Pater Daicos on a show in England:
    YouTube - PETER DAICOS on M.U.T.V. SPORTZSTATS

    Peter Daicos in a Toyota commercial for the AFL, listen they mention his nickname as the Macedonian Marvel. the commercial is prety funny too.

    Daniel The Great, Isnt Ange Christou from Egejska Makedonija?
    МАКЕДОНЕЦ си кога кавал ќе ти ја распара душата,зурла ќе ти го раскине срцето,кога секое влакно од кожата ќе ти се наежи кога ќе видиш шеснаесеткрако сонце,кога до коска ќе те заболи кога ќе слушнеш ПЈРМ,кога немаш ни за леб,а полн си во душата затоа што ја сакаш МАКЕДОНИЈА. МАКЕДОНИЈА во срце те носиме.

        Prolet, could Vasil Varlamos be a Macedonian from Aegean Macedonia? i mean the Greeks don't use the name "Vasil" they use the name "Vasili". He played for the mighty Carlton Blues FC.

                Daniel The Great, Im pretty sure the Daicos family originate from Banica, some stayed there the others went to the Prespa region. They changed their names back to Daikov.

                  I think he possibly is Macedonian Prolet, from Aegean Macedonia.

                      Nothing wrong with AFL, it's a good game that probably has some indigenous Australian roots in some elements. Good thread Daniel.
                      In the name of the blood and the sun, the dagger and the gun, Christ protect this soldier, a lion and a Macedonian.

                        Frank, AFL is Australia's national sport, and as SoM has pointed out , the first AFL foortball teams were largely indigenous.
                        I think its great having Macedonians play the national sport, and this is a great thread! Macedonian achievements should be highlighted at every opportunity, God knows the dushmani do it constantly
                        All my sons have played Aussie rules and soccer as well growing up
                        And DTG how wonderful to be related to the great Peter!

                          Well said SoM and Julie, i think noting the achievement's of the Macedonians who play this sport is the main thing. I personally have played the sport of Aussie rules Football for many years and trust me it's not easy. What Frank said is totally stupid because those players would of went through so much years of hard training etc to make it where they are now, i think a small acknowledgement isn't to much to ask for, hey Franky?

                          Thank's for the support SoM and Julie. And ye being related to Peter Daicos (Daikov) (the Macedonian marvel) even if it is sought of distant related is prety cool, he is a legend of the game.

                            Frankly seeing Macedonians achieve great heights in a Sport like Australian Rules doesn't motivate me to give them a high five

                            International Sport yes not that rubbish

                            It is a parochial pile of shit with limited tactical and individual skillets compared to Football.

                            I am from Victoria I do understand the culture around it, hell we are exposed to it 1000 times a day

                            Cricket is well and truly Australia's National Game with AFL having little impact in QLD and NSW.

                              Australian Rules football is British in origin, it has since had multiple rule changes so that it no longer resembles Rugby rules or Cambridge rules football the football rules on which the game was based. The only indigenous connection I can make is the land it is played on.
