What you mean hes got one more after this year? FMD if there is no intention to pick a 29 yr old in the seniors why the hell did we keep him.

He signed a 2 year contract extension in the pre-season of 2020. He was 28 at the time and had come off playing in 62 of a possible 74 games included 2 premierships. Hardly the worst list management decision ever made. He is out of contract at the end of the season.

Thank you Josh. Good luck in whatever life throws at you.

Dual premiership player. Not many can say that.

Thanks Cads  . All the best in your post-footy career.

His bigger body and physicality was a key part to our 2017 flag and his adaptability allowed him to play wing in our 2019 flag.

Best of Caddy:

Thanks Caddy. Sadly his body slowed down but his physicality and also ability to put goals on the board is something I’ll remember. Thanks for your part in the dynasty

[Andyy]

Please retire for the mid season draft mate.

Thanks for the memories.

And again. Thanks Josh!

According to Dimma, Caddy has done a Grigg. Selflessly retired for the betterment of the Club and to give someone else a chance to play AFL  . Also joked that Caddy wants to select the player we now pick up in the MSD  .

All the best Cads. The end came quick but was a good player for us overall. 2 flags! Onya legend

If they had any guts or brains they would ask him to retire.But lets face it i have the gut feel it has never been about anyone but Josh so it will not happen.

Why the hell we kept a bloke we were not going to play is mind boggling

Somebody is wrong here. My guess is not somebody that has inside knowledge of the club.

Well done Josh both on what you gave to the club when playing and what you are giving in retiring. Another one of the more unsung hero's of our flag years.

Well done Josh and thanks

Not just for helping us win 2 flags but also the work you've put in helping develop the cubs at VFL level

Always a Tiger
