Which AFL team do you support and how did you come to barrack for them?North Melbourne - my grandfather played for them so it is a family tradition.

Shirley he doesn't want to break at least 3 generations of family tradition then! Welcome to North Melbourne Josh Caddy!

down to 3 clubs only... north, cats and saints.

does this mean we are moving backwards if it was down to us and Geelong not that long ago?

Waiting to lay a chicken wing tackle

Really gotta quit it with the Steven Seagal movies after training that mob.

just means the saints have moved into contention bc of the picks. Endf of the day, if North want him that bad they will do a deal. Just like any other club who wants a player.

Blues offering GC pick 11 + a player for Caddy.

Geelong waiting for Josh to choose a club before working to satisfy GC's trade demands. Balme says they're going to assist Josh to return home, as long as the trade is fair (in their eyes).

So, it's as we were two weeks ago.

Unless he nominates North, he will be going elsewhere.

Precisely. His decision sets the wheels in motion, then it's up to the club of choice to get it done.

 

[Hunters Host #3]

We should patiently wait until Josh and/or his management make an announcement.

 

[Tas]

So Theo X big scoop about Carlton and they hadn't even talked to Caddy's manager. ****ing brilliant call Ox, should be renamed The Goose.

Is it too late to have a small statue of Caddy's granddad erected in the Aegis Park foyer?

Put it in the shadow of the JZ one until then.

 

[kingcarey18]

levi and pedo have told the club they would like to be traded for more opportunities could one of them be apart of the deal?

 

[ozzyoslo]

If he didn't nominate us I really wouldn't be fussed if we landed him or not TBH. As long as we're in the ballpark contract wise, with our state of the art facilities and very promising list, and the fact we're the team his entire family supports, if he STILL chooses elsewhere then he's not a true hot blooded Shinboner anyway. If we're way off on the contract front then fair enough.

I haven't given up hope that he will nominate us but I'm far from biting my nails and throwing a noose over the nearest tree branch in the event he doesn't.

BINGO, Check the man's ticket!

We're a young squad going forward, Geelong still will have some old stars trickling out ...... We have less. The kid has an emotional attachment to us as well. I dare to dream this favours us , with a higher than average chance he'll develop longer friendships with a bigger core group with us are intangible things that could sway us a a better choice...........where does his old man live?? He's sick yeah ? and Josh was leaning last year at Essendon......which makes me think that this is closest to where his father lives. We are the next best choice geographically if this is the case. Its not that easy for him just to relocate down geelong way.

Why do people just cut and past opinions from the trading board?

There are a few other clubs based on that criteria.

However, there is only ONE club based upon the criteria that they are an inner city club with two previous generations belonging to Caddy.

St Kilda would have to offer him 400+ grand to trump us.

 

[roo beleaver]

Correct. If Saints get top compensation it is a first round pick, directly after theirs.

And on the competing North/Geelong bids, it is their compo pick they're looking to trade, for the previously assumed reasons, explained by Neil Balme:



from Free Agency is killing football, says Roos. (Can't believe I am agreeing with him).

Cheers mate

- St Kilda have just entered the fray.
- Carlton are throwing the kitchen sink.
- Geelong are waiting for Josh to make up his mind.


Meanwhile....................down at Arden Street.....................

 

[roo beleaver]

And in stroll Carlton

 

[ozzyoslo]

We could, but we have less need to. Caddy would suffice but OH MY GOD CAN YOU IMAGINE HOW AWESOME WE W ILL BE IN 5 YEARS WITH ALL THAT YOUNG TALENT ON THE LIST!!!! I'M GONNA FREAKIN EXPLODE!!!!!

then we have a challenging time...trying to sell geelong style salaries to these potential superstars. It'll be a tough task to do.

yes but clubs have to show interest first. saints have shown interest and have a better pick, hence they are in contention.

 

[kingcarey18]

Afl.com.au has stated that only 3 clubs are seriously in the hunt for Josh Caddy. Those clubs are St Kilda, Geelong and North Melbourne

It's 90% done mate. It's all about the details now.

 

[Dig Out Ya Soul]

Has anyone got any idea how much we have offered & length of contract?

 

[Flawed Genius]

It's 90% done mate. It's all about the details now.

90% done to us? My god you can be cryptic.
