After a solid pre-season, Guthrie, who was an emergency for the big game against the Magpies, is particularly buoyant about his prospects for the campaign ahead.
"I've put on about seven kilos since I got to the club, so hopefully I can mix it with the big boys now," the 20-year-old from Sunbury told AFL.com.au.

CAMERON Guthrie, one of three Geelong emergencies to miss out on grand final day last year, says he is ready to demand a permanent place in the Cats' senior team in 2012.
This year, Geelong's coaching staff hope Guthrie will be on the next wave of young talent to make their mark, and the defender has identified the early rounds as the time to shine, with Menzel, Vardy and Dawson Simpson out injured.

Good article in the herald sun about him today
not interested,had him last year & sweated all season on him getting a 3rd game so his price would go up-never happened,but seriously too many others at lower or just a little higher priced than him to consider
