Judd for a year?

KLV
in Melbourne Demons

Featured Replies

Yeah I can't see us taking Judd for a year. With Casey showing such great form and our young mids performing so well down there I can't see a spot on the list for him. It would create tension within the playing group when Nicho,Strauss and co. Are competing for a spot on the list with another hack like Judd.

    i would take him for a year on a moderate salary but not the figure he would want.

    why should we top up his Super.

    i actually think the Blues are setting him up for a much reduced figure next year.

    they need his salary reduced considerably to spend on recruits.

    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

    I've never seen him tag, play a defensive role, or simply not been the "star" midfielder.

    He has been an offensive juggernaut, but he has never sacrificed for the team, beyond playing hurt, and I don't consider that a sacrifice for the team as such.

    The Cross signing was out of the ordinary. Usually these deals fall flat unless a gap needs filling for a premiership contender ala Dew.

    Can't see any point for us signing Judd, Sewell or O' Keefe. All energies should go getting some mid career types like Vince.

    & this is why he's Not a great captain,,, way too self. we dodged a bullet, but shot our-self anyway.

    Judd is no-where near, fitting Hodges shoes

    Hodge had about 2 or 3 smothers inside about a 5 second period last night, to lead the way for his Hawks. sacrifice & GUTS is Hodges template; & I see Trennners being 'our Hodge', when fit.

    Definitely a no.

    However, I am a little bewildered at the the dislike for Judd here. He's always struck me as one of those guys that loves the game but realises that in the big scheme of things, it ain't really that important - and I admire that.

    Anyone not in our side should be considered an improvement on today's effort

    • 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?

      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?
