Just seem to be involved in the gam a lot. Agree with Olide, workmate and desire have gone up a notch. Has never kicked more than 21 goals in a season, reckon he pushes 30 this year.

And one of those guys that gives a group swag. Plays with attitude.
Yep he loves giving a bit of lip to the opposition.

I love the way he is a Beast on the ground, The opposition feel him on the ground and he always fly's the flag

Yep love the way he always is the first to fly the flag. We need more of that. Gave Lever a bit of lip during half time in the grand final last year which I still remember.

Would love if he was mic'ed up, I think Josh and Jack are our best sledgers.
 
What huge get Caddy was for us - I could never understood why Geelong let him go so cheaply - massive kudos to the club. Having genuine hard nuts like Caddy and Townsend running around in the forward line - geez its good to watch, those little guys must get tremendous confidence from just having them around.

Are there two harder blokes in the AFL?
 
Wasn't sure about getting him at first but can now really see his worth.

We have a good mix in our forward line imo. 1 general roaming key tall with smarts, 2 hybrid medium tall enforcers who negate the intercept marks and provide lead up targets, and 3 terriers who harass the opposition running backs, create turnovers and swoop on crumbs.

Its been a long time since we've had some genuine mongrel in the team, Caddy, Towner, Nank and K-Mac all like to put some hurt on and i think Fridge Graham will be added to that list soon enough and then you have the Vlaustin and Cotch types who play really hard at the ball.

Probably have to go back to Turner, Bullus and Maxfield since we've had genuine toughness and mongrel

Cats think they won out of the deal. Buggered if I can work out how.

Yeah same. He contests better than I expected.

Really? How? They knocked back Caddy for Lids but then gave us Caddy for a 2nd Rnd pick
 
There is a reason why that greek? interview clip is so hysterically funny. Because the subtitles are true.

We are really, really enjoying having Caddy. Caddy and KMac are our ruck rovers. Towner is gravy with extra lumps
 
caddy is one of those players who when he plays for the opposition you hate his guts but if he wears your sides guernsey you absolutely love. the boys walk taller with caddy out there he is always the first in to fly the flag and support his team mates and gets under the opposition skin like a ballantyne did. respect went to another level for cads in the grand final jake lever was getting into townsend and mocking him about his stutter and caddy was first to get over there and tell lever that *smile* isn't on and let him know about it

Spot on - took a while for both he and Prestia to prove they were as good as we'd hoped and as good as they eventually showed. And now Caddy is getting better again.

Lever was mocking Townsend about his stutter, really?
Well I'll look forward to that rematch with gusto.
Good on Caddy.

Think he may have rethought it when he realised how hard Towner's tackles are.
 
If that's true then we need that story to leak to the media before the Melbourne game.
