Caddy in my current team as F4

Currently tossing up between Tomahawk, Caddy and Buddy for F4.

I am a cats fan and I am not sold on caddy just yet! I think horlin smith will play a lot through there and possibly varcoe.
I currently have the tomahawk as F4

Buddy by a street. But Hawkins is a good smokey. Proven gun. If he gets back to full fitness look out

As a Cats fan i have to disagree about Hawkins been a gun,he is VERY important for geelong but as far as fantasy footy goes he has had only 1 good season averaging 95.
I can't see him having another year like that with a much younger Geelong team feeding him the ball.
I wouldn't want to carry Hawkins through an entire season..BUT if he gets off to a flyer and kicks a few huge bags it could be a stroke of genius,suggest researching how he scored against Geelongs opening 5 opponents in his best years.

I wanna see him once more, not convinced yet haha.

Hawkins averaged 101 in the first 6 games in 2012, that's what I'd be hoping for. He also averaged 115 from rounds 14-19, so when he's hot he's hot. He's definitely risky but if he's your F5, he will almost certainly outscore most of the competition.

The worry with Caddy is that the Cats like to give the younger guys a vest every so often, even if they are firmly entrenched in the best 22. They did it last year with Duncan, Motlop and Christensen.

The more I think about it with Caddy the more I like him as an early season option. The Cats have had a few spots open up, throw in the injuries and he could be a really good mid price cash making option. I then look at his scores from last season and he struggles to score over 70. I think that comes down to issues with his disposal which is pretty crucial to SC scoring.
