Geelong set to add Tom Hawkins and Paul Chapman for Richmond match Geelong forward Tom Hawkins is expected to line up against Richmond after sitting out last week with back tightness. A RICHMOND team coming off back-to-back losses will have to contend with the added firepower of Tom Hawkins and Paul Chapman returning for Geelong this week. The unbeaten Cats will welcome the pair back from injury for Saturday night's game at the MCG. Chapman was left out of last week's side that beat the Western Bulldogs because of a hamstring complaint, while Hawkins was a late withdrawal because of back tightness. "I can't see Hawkins and Chapman not coming up," Geelong coach Chris Scott said yesterday. But I've said those things before and been mistaken. To the best of my knowledge they should be fine. The pair took part in training at Simonds Stadium yesterday, as did midfielder Josh Caddy, who sat out the end of last week's game because of concussion. The 20-year-old was on the receiving end of a hit from Bulldog Brett Goodes, which earned him a two-game suspension. Scott said the club would take its time to assess whether Caddy would be right to take on the Tigers. Geelong's big man stocks continue to be boosted, following the return of Nathan Vardy to the VFL last week. Former Kangaroo Hamish McIntosh is closing in on a return to full training after a frustrating battle with a knee and achilles complaint. " (McIntosh) is slowly working back and starting to look good, he's closer to training with the main group," Scott said. We're going to be conservative with his re-introduction into football. He's had the slight knee issue, that wasn't a huge concern, and then he had started to get some achilles pain which held up his return-to-training program, that's starting to look better. The knee's in really good shape and then after a couple of weeks in training we'll make an assessment on when he plays. Scott said the club would not push Vardy as he builds his fitness towards a return to the senior team. "He played 55 per cent game time or thereabouts and moved pretty well," he said. He's pulled up pretty well but I can't be definitive yet because we need to see how he trains. Walking around and feeling good is a bit different to training and feeling good, so assuming that he is feeling good then he'll play a little bit more game time at VFL level this week and continue that for the next month or so and then re-assess. A decision on what treatment Daniel Menzel will receive for his fourth knee reconstruction is still to be made, Scott said.
