The first great goalsneak in the South Australian game, 'Bos' Daly began at Norwood and went on to play for West Torrens, West Adelaide, South Adelaide and North Adelaide. He was the SAFA's top goal kicker on a total of seven occasions with three different clubs between 1893 and 1905, and his record of 23 goals in a match, established while playing for Norwood against Adelaide in his debut season, has been equalled (by Ken Farmer) but never bettered. Daly also topped his various clubs' goal kicking lists on thirteen occasions, and tallied 556 goals in 213 games. He played 10 games for South Australia, kicking 9 goals. A premiership player with Norwood on four occasions, Daly was the top goal kicker for his club no fewer than thirteen times.
