Two of the AFL’s biggest names have taken the US by storm.

Bulldogs star Bailey Smith and Collingwood’s premiership young gun Nick Daicos have been touring New York with Monster Energy.

The pair have been captured exploring the streets and training with picturesque views.

They visited the Brooklyn Nets, learnt the ropes of UFC training and caught up with Aussie NBA player Ben Simmons.

“(Nick’s) someone who’s got a lot of room to grow,’’ Smith told Channel 7 before departing.

“Just appreciating great players as they come along. Hopefully can have a year like his next year.”

Smith was accompanied by his girlfriend Gemma Dawkins and the couple has gone to Mexico for a brief holiday.

Smith has kept up his training and looks to be in great shape.

Daicos is travelling through San Francisco on the way home.

Smith and Daicos are also in business together with the new Barry drink launched last month.
