Profile

After switching from Gold Coast in 2013, Caddy had a patchy start to his career at Geelong but played the last 12 games of the season and looks to have cemented his place in the starting 22. His average from Round 14 onwards was 77.3 so if he can avoid the vests in 2014 there's some upside to be had. Given Chapman and most likely Corey will exit the team there's room for Caddy to become more of an active participant in the midfield and hopefully lift his scoring. Obviously he would need to be approached as a short term money maker and stepping stone to a premium, so in that respect you'd want to be confident he'll get off to a flyer at the start of the season.

Prediction - 72 to 80.

Can definitely see a 20point increase in his average next year, but not sure if its enough to give a big enough price jump.

On my watch list for 2015 ;) 90+ average then.

I agree, he should increase his average by 15-20 at least.

[Colliwobblers]

tricky price hard to fit into a starting team, still will be watching rated him highly in 2012 and think he will kick on in 2014
