AFL round 18 2026, scores, results, odds, stats and start time from Marvel Stadium

Nick Daicos spoke to the Seven post game.

You’ve had some great moments, but tell us what’s going on in the body. A lot of work with physios, a lot of stretching on the floor.

Yep, just one of those days. The body feels a little average. But let me tell you, as the game progresses and the Magpies Army starts going crazy, your body finds an extra gear. As I said, we are gaining some momentum.

How important is this now? Four wins with a bye. Think this group is starting to get things going at the right time of year?

Yes definitely. We cannot get ahead, but we need to continue banking to win. We want to be there in that wildcard window. And we’re putting ourselves in this position right now. So that’s good. We enjoy it.
