I'd say Caddy has played better footy for the club than Prestia so far. Not sure if he's actually a better footballer, but he's been one of the best pick-ups we've ever had (in my time).

Perhaps firming as the "fifth A-Grader" on the list  ;)?

Ok. What’s going on here? Is it just me or is this the same bloke?

Just coming into his prime and finally starting to show why he went at 7... :shh

The best 'separated at birth' related to footy I have ever seen was one that I think appeared in the Age (could have been the Hun) and had a picture of Brett Heady and next to him a picture of the premiership cup. His big ears sticking out like handles, it was a classic.

Agree with this. He is so strong and is a great mark for his size...plays like a key forward who can also play inside mid.  :clapping

I'm still surprised that no-one seems to have noticed Luke Parker's uncanny resemblance to Dane Swan....Swan looks like Parker's evil twin  or alternatively Parker is a clean-cut, middle-class version of Swan... :shh

“He's [Caddy's] good around the ball, he’s good on-ball, then he can go forward and take a really impressive, powerful mark,” Hardwick said.

“We were really pleased with his game.

“He’s missed a couple of games throughout the year, but he’s been such a valuable contributor for us . . .

“He allows us to move the pieces and roll the dice with a couple of guys.

“So we’ve been really impressed with what he’s brought to our footy club over the last two years, and he’s only getting better.

“I said at the start of the year I think he’s only scratching the surface of what he could do.

“He’s such an important player to us, and he’ll continue to work hard.

“He’s got some areas of his game that we still feel can get a lot better, but that’s really pleasing from our point of view . . .

“He’s a confidence player . . . That’s what we love about him.”

Josh Caddy was tremendous for the Tigers, finishing the game with 24 disposals at 79 per cent efficiency, 13 contested possessions, seven tackles and six goals.

One premiership Tiger who is having a better season than last year. He must have 23 goals so far this year off the top of the my head. That's up with the best key taller forwards. He's also getting his hands on the footy so he's just not cheaply feeding off the hard work of teammates.
