Malthouse seems to think he should retire, while "he still has something left in the tank".

Would we want him at MFC? Would he be interested? Could it happen? Didn't he promise his Nanna he would play for the dees?

    No. Turned us down when we were any real chance to get any value out of having him at the club. He is now a shadow of his former self and would lucky to be best 22 at most clubs with the way his body is deteriorating.

    Definite no.

    Does this really require a new thread?

    There's plenty of other threads already dedicated to talk of recruiting and players to target.

    *Judd isn't one of them.

    SURELY you're taking the absolute [censored]? I'd have for him to come to us, especially in the condition his body is in and how he snubbed us off a few years ago. He can go get f'k'd.

    Purely as a player, I miss watching him at his best and think it's sad to watch him run around now.

    As a bloke...

    ill say it, its true, as a bloke… man he has done some very odd things and strikes me as a [censored].

    as for his playing ability, he's done. he should retire.

    As long as you throw in Cazaley and some of the Fitzroy mosquito fleet from the 19030s.

    No, no, no!

    We have a far better senior leader at the club right now in Daniel Cross.

    Struggling to see the upside of recruiting Judd.

    His leadership has always been lacking in my opinion.

    Aloof, some would say sh%t bloke.

    I don't know what we'd want him for, especially at the expense of a youngster.

    Judd has never been the one to play an unpalatable role and sacrifice for the team, a la Daniel Cross.

    Only if he promised to do more chicken wings and pressure point assaults. Perhaps a bit of eye gouging, scratching and squirrelling as well. You know, step it up a bit. Nice.

    Who would have thought we would be saying no to a multiple all Australian former captain of two sides, premiership captain, norm Smith medalist, dual brownlow medalist and multiple best and fairest winner

    In short we need the player desperately even at his age, but his personality makes it a no for me

    I'm with the nays, but not because of some of the petulant people above who only seem to not want him because they're still bitter about how he handled us half a lifetime ago.

    I just simply don't see the point. There's a very big chance you'll get nothing from him. If he had anything left to give, Carlton would keep him.

    You are wrong there Machsy he was severely hampered in 2007 and knew he was leaving Meth Coast at the end of the season. He played the second half of that season under extreme duress as his team had another tilt at a flag. Had he been selfish he could have booked in early for surgery and hit the ground running pre-season with his new club. Furthermore he made sure Meth Coast got a good deal when he could have walked via the PSD. Whatever coin the Tigers wanted to throw at him Carlton would have matched and taken him with pick 2 in the PSD.

    Having said all that it's a no from me

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
