I see Caddy has the staggering total of 3 possessions to half-time. He virtually never gets any of the ball.

    It looks like that was his dominant half of the game too!

    Maybe his mind is in different place at the moment. He seems to get a lot of raps, I just don't see it. Has the emperor got no clothes or can he really play?

    The love for him on here is really surprising, hes probably had 2 or 3 good games this season and people are calling for us to give up pick 13 for him.

    Call me blind but I just don't see what's so good about him.

    would rather get Kennedy at pick 13 (if he's still there) than give it up for Caddy. Kennedy has just as big a kick, is a hell of a lot quicker, has much greater goal nous and can find the ball a lot easier than Caddy. The only area Caddy is supreme is in the guts, but given his current form, i'm starting to doubt that too.

    Kennedy all the way

    Yeah, I'd be really happy with Kennedy or Stringer at 13 to be honest, I think both can be great players.

    Exactly I don't get everyone wanting to give up pick 13 for Caddy?

    Port got Brad Ebert for pick 20 something last year and he's much better than

    Caddy at the moment. Seriously does everyone want us to do crap deals and

    screw ourselves up even more?

    Glad you guys aren't in our FD.

    Goldcoast would be pretty happy to take a 4-5 place drop on him from what they paid and get back into a strong draft imo.....lots of good players going around at about pick 13 this year.

    I'm saying Martin for Caddy straight swap, not pick 13 + Martin.

    Martin to the Pies for they're Pick around 18.

    Pick 18 + Bail to GCSuns for Caddy. Or Pick 13 + Petterd.

    With Boak seemingly off the table, does anyone else think we should make Caddy a priority?

    I'm a big fan. A hard, tough, skillful mid who can kick goals. Has an apprenticeship working with Bluey McKenna and Gary Jnr under his belt and should be primed as he enters his third season of footy.

    I reckon we should go hard at him and trump whatever the Bomber and other clubs can offer the Suns (bar our picks 3 and 4 of course).

    3,4, Caddy, Viney ... Now THAT would be a game-changing draft result for the MFC.

    Giving overs to GC for Caddy certainly wouldn't be a "game changer" for the MFC and if it was it'd be for the worse.

    For the past season with all the hype Caddy has been getting I'd rate him as being 'serviceable' at best and the MFC already has an abundance of 'serviceable' on the list.

    But after yesterday I'm convinced he is worse than that, bad days are bad days I get that... but 3 disposals from a full game is woeful.

    Essendon went really hard for this guy last year. That's the only reason why his name is so well known.

    If anyone said lets trade pick 13 for Luke Russell you would all say "Who the hell is that?"

    http://www.footywire...A&fid1=S&fid2=S

    OK? I'll bite, is this Luke Russell wanting to return to Melbourne then, I'm assuming you've mentioned him because he is?

  • Quote

    Russell is a GUN, if he wanted to come home, he'd have many sides keen.

    That kid can play, he'd buy and sell Josh Caddy.

    I'd be surprised if GC let Russell go, haven't heard nothing.

    Me too I have taken the time to watch him a few times this year on TV and checked the CGS game reports every week.

    IMO he is average on a good weekend.

    I have also been following him and remain underwhelmed.

    Caddy was one of only 3 players to play all 22 games this year for the Suns yet finished 17th in their B&F last night.

    Khunt finished 12th.

    I wouldn't read TOO much into B&F results - Scully finished fourth in the GWS count which, as we all know, is completely wrong when looking at the season he had.

    Caddy can play.

    I've seen him play one ripper game against Geelong and plenty of ordinary games. He was terrible against us at the G. But as I said elsewhere, I accept he played injured for much of the year and also had little support, as Rischitelli, Prestia, and Swallow for various reasons didn't have the expected output.

    Do I salivate at the prospect of getting him ? No. Would I be happy to get him ? Yes.

    I'm in the same boat in terms of getting him, and I think he would probably cost too much to get. Let the Bombers throw the kitchen sink at him.

    I don't know if I want Caddy if we lose Pick 13.

    But who knows what the stakes are...

    Isn't Luke Russell from Burnie? Melbourne is a long way from home.

    considering this years draft prospects pick 13 is massive overs...

    2nd round FA compo pick+ davis (decent bodied defender) for caddy could be be worth looking at

    but if west coast are willing to take that pick+ jetta (quick small fwd) for koby stevens i would probably take the latter

    Caddy is young and there is more to him than people are seeing. Still a gamble but if his brother is anything to go buy he, Toumpas and Viney in a midfield in two years time makes me dribble.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
