I wonder if they are tempted to bring him in this week.

I doubt it. I reckon he needs to produce consistently in the VFL before he gets a look in. And we don’t really have a place for him at the monent

I wonder if they are tempted to bring him in this week.

His form hasn't really had consistency to it yet:

15d / 6m / 2 goals this weekend just gone is pretty good
9d / 4m / 0 goals the game prior (2 weeks ago) less so.

Reckon unless one of Wright or Jones get injured they'll let him marinate in the VFL for a bit, which for a first year KPF is a perfectly good idea. No rush atm.

 

[Blind Turn]

Liking the fact that we have genuinely exciting young prospects in the magoos on each line that we don’t need to rush and can continue developing. Caddy forward, Tsatas and Roberts mid, and Reid and Hayes in defence (Bryan less exciting but is ready to go too). It all augurs well for our depth and future.

A few more weeks of what he produced on Saturday and I would be having a look if Harry is still struggling to mark it.

Don't clubs tend to say something if he was planned to debut, instead of just springing it on us on a Friday evening.

Our team wouldn’t be announced until tomorrow anyway, so they can announce it anytime before then. Apparently jones is under a cloud so I’d say he’s a chance to come in

Hope he gets 4+ goals and a speccy

 

[eth-dog]

Look, I doubt he plays. We'd have had the excited debut video by now.

Usually, I'd agree.

It could be a case of "See how Jones feels" (if it's true that he didn't train yesterday). They might be giving him a bit longer to prove his fitness, and if he's all good then Caddy is an emergency, and if he gets ruled out today or tomorrow, then Caddy would play.

Dunno - just a different line of thought.

 

[The Donners]

Either way, selection panel has Caddy in their crosshairs for a debut soon.

 

[Runk]

Would be good to see him get a gig this weekend.

i hope he kicks some goals and ruffles people’s hair

Bangs a goal through, ruffles Sheezels hair.

I hope he presents well, brings the ball to ground and hits the contest hard

Ruffles hair as he contests. Is capable. Reasonable compromise.

There's still time.

Provides great forward half pressure, by ruffling hair inside 50

Hits the pack hard, ruffles hair at the highest point and takes the mark.

Emergency

Emergency

Ruffles hair in change rooms after the game

Jones suspension opens the door for a Caddy debut. Would just love to see him bring the same pressure and lead up work rate Harry has provided the last 6 weeks.

We better challenge that Jones "offence"

Time for someone else to carry Caddy's clubs

Welcome to the big time son.

Feel like the massive occasion of dream time could really suit him.

GOT HIM!
