Rubbish. He was contracted with Geelong so if they REALLY valued him and wanted him to stay they would not have traded him full stop. This bloke will just add to the already huge list of vanilla players we have got. Anyone seen this guy in big games and finals? Goes missing!!! At least we are keeping the boys club going. Now that we got rid of the Deledio and Grigg bromance, we just couldn't help ourselves and added the Prestia and Caddy love affair. What a joke.lisamaree said:Very comfortable with this acquisition.
A very solid B+ grader at worst and will fill a very pressing need for us in the midfield. Those that have compared him to Moore & Townsend will be very pleasantly surprised.
Make no mistake, Geelong did NOT want this player to leave, they hadn't contemplated Caddy exiting for a split second leading in to trade week - it's been very fortuitous for the Tigers (we've got Deledio to thank for this).

tigerlove said:Give it a rest. Let's give him a chance to see what he can give. He was very good in 2015 at Geelong, and this year playing as a forward scored at least a goal in all but 3 games. Geelong did not want to get rid of Caddy and Caddy did not originally want to go but we, with Prestia's help, turned it around. The game is littered with players moving to other clubs due to prior acquaintances, why is it only a bad thing for Richmond? And Grigg has been a very consistent player for the Tigers anyway, so not sure why your example.
Richmond had enough of the Lids/Grigg love affair and split them up. Can't believe the have let Prestia/caddy get togethertigersnake said:Yeah having players who are friends on the list? Joke. ;D
