This is like swapping footy cards with your friends.

This is what Ive been on about for ages. Some seem to think its a swap card game. They like keeping special ones for years too !!! lol

Its Scanlens mentality !!

    I am not too bothered about picking up Caddy and think that taking someone like Oliver Wines with Viney would be a good move. Josh Toy is a guy that I actually taught and I really rate his character and skill. He is quite versatile and can play in the middle as well as down back. He has not gone well at Gold Coast mostly because he is homesick and because he has been dealing with the aftermath of coming to terms with the loss of his father. I think that he is a solid player, with a great 60 metre pinpoint kick who is much tougher than he has so far let on. He is also very mature and would not rock the boat in terms of the club culture.

    We need people who are going to rock the boat culture wise at the mfc.

    Josh Toy is obviously not mentaly tough enough for the sport if he gets homesick living on the gc...what happens when we have to play in WA? Does he only make himself available for home games?

    Josh Caddy...PSD or hope we get a 2nd round FAcompo pick otherwise no dice

    Scott Thompson left the Dees for similar reasons and is fine upstairs.

    I am not saying Toy will become what Thompson has become, but let's not leap of a cliff into the Gorge of Specious Conclusions.

    Pretty harsh when it was spelt out in the post above he's been coming to terms with the aftermath of losing his father. Pretty rough on a kid forced to move interstate at the age of 17 and leave his grieving family behind.

    Your an idiot, homesickness is not based around one week of interstate travel but rather living away from family for 2 years, he only gets to see them every so often! A weekend away playing doesn't make him homesick.

    It's pretty hard to deal with your dads death while away from family basically 24/7

    What a down right stupid comment!

    Why compare living permanently away from friends and family to 4 days away.

    Don't rush to re-post.

    I think Thompson had shown more than both Toy and Caddy when he left. I was very disappointed as a younger fan to see him go. Even back then i could see how good he was.

    Irrelevant to the point I was making.

    Noticed a picture on Nathan Jones instagram of him and Petterd, the latter not being in his MFC blazer but in a plain suit, maybe he has been told that he is being let go? Maybe traded to the GC with pick 13 ?

    If it were for Caddy that would be a shocking deal

    I agree, I meant if it were for only Caddy. What extras would you think are likely?

    Josh Caddy and Suns pick 42 TRADE FOR Demons pick 13 and Ricky Petterd. Get the deal done early.

    Caddy is a 20yo, strong bodied mid, with good pace,long kick & loves a goal and with another pre season will be able to step up our midfield.

    Add Viney & Caddy & pick 3 and 4 say Toumpas + Mayes or Wines and we have a midfield ... Jones, Trengove, Grimes, Mckenzie, Sylvia, Viney, Caddy, Toumpas, Mayes. Now we are heading in the right direction. Add one or two free agents and bang, we are looking very competitive and on the up.

    Yet he does very little on game day. That trade would be a loss for us - how about we use pick 13 on one of Kennedy, Stringer or Wines?

    Your a shocking deal

    Kennedy , Wines, Garlett or Stringer will all end up better players then Caddy

    Please dont use pick 13 on him

  • Quote

    Sorry.....I just don't get the love for Caddy on this thread......I think we are better off going for Wines(strong ...head over the ball midfielder)....I have only seen Caddy a few times and he has not impressed me at all....

    So you think trading pick 13 and Petterd to Gold Coast for Caddy would be beneficial to us?

    If we snag a free agent like Monfries for example then yes. Petterd is finished at the dees and Caddy will become a star

    Tell me why you think a guy with two seasons in the system, who at one stage this year picked up 3 disposals in a full game of footy, will be a star. Pick 13 alone would be overs for him and will be much better spent on one of the kids this year, or in a trade involving someone like Wellingham.

    No offence - If Gold Coast took that I would be laughing all the way to London. If they didnt take it - I would 100% guarantee you would not have pick 3 in the draft & you would have no Caddy. oh - and you still would have Petterd.

    • 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.
