Are they both Auskickers?? Has to be more to it than that , surely
Doesn't explicitly mention Auskick in fairness... Playing more on the inside and playing with Dion appear to be the strongest themes.

JOSH CADDY SPEAKS

"It's a bit of a funny feeling, something I didn't see coming," he said on Trade Radio.

"That was probably the original reason why. Brett expressed a desire to go to Geelong ... it was put to me if I'd like to look at it (a move to Richmond).

"I thought it was a great opportunity to further my career. I'm so grateful for my four years at Geelong. I got to experience some amazing things and play with superstars of the game.

"It's not like Geelong were shopping my name around.

"As a player, you've got to weigh up everything and think about where you can get the best out of yourself and success if a factor as well.

"Richmond had a really disappointing year ... but I think the future is bright there and it's a good opportunity to further my career.

"I'd be lying if I said it didn't (Dion Prestia trade influencing his decision). We've been mates since we were kids. We played Vic Metro together and obviously got drafted together.

"When things transpired, when he got wind of that he was into me straight away."
 
Can't wait for wellsy's explanation of all this....really can't! It would want to have more than just merrit. Last yrs trade period a fading memory, if that.

Looks like that 63 from Freo would have been used. 6 out and only 1 in. So down to 33 senior players right now.
Add Ruggles and Simpson and we take 3 picks to the draft.
 
So by all accounts Josh got a call from his mate Dion who asked if he wanted to come and play with him at Richmond next year. They must be bloody good friends. Although maybe less so after Josh has actually played for Richmond for a year...

He also had really good mates at Geelong too and has just dogged them.

I just don't understand..... doing trades like this all the time and they expect to improve. The caddy trade is an absolute disgrace, and actually makes the 2e trade a lot worse as a result of the swapping of picks etc. I am so sick of Geelong having no balls, utterly sick of it. Hopefully next years trade period we bring our own lube, because other clubs sure as hell aren't giving us any.
 
Add Ruggles and Simpson and we take 3 picks to the draft.

That's fair. Forgot that we could promote Ruggles. 24 now has to be a hit, trading a 24yo when you've seemingly loaded up for a flag and done so again by trading away next seasons first.

He can't be a miss, no reaching Wells. Best available.
