GEELONG has lauded recruit Josh Caddy for his hard work since he arrived from the Gold Coast two months ago.
"He's been fantastic," assistant coach Nigel Lappin said. "He hasn't done a lot of contact work yet, that will start for him after Christmas.
"We had a time trial up the mountain ... on the bikes and Josh finished with the third-best time.
"He's another strong body for us in the midfield to take some pressure off (Jimmy) Bartel and (Joel) Corey and (James) Kelly and (Joel) Selwood, so we're really excited."
Caddy's power and poise were on show at yesterday's training run in Mt Beauty, despite the midfielder being on a slightly restricted program due to post-season shoulder surgery.
"It's never easy walking into a side with this much experience and this many good players, but I had a pretty good start to the pre-season," Caddy, 20, said.
Former elite runner Mark Blicavs blitzed teammates in two-minute sprints - after more than two hours of training in 27C.

Blicavs tried out for the London Olympics before being picked up by the Cats.
The 198cm rookie finished streets ahead of the chasing pack, including Selwood, Josh Walker and Jesse Stringer.
"He's an amazing athlete, a terrific person and a fantastic trainer," Lappin said of Blicavs.
