[In Harmes Way 7,613]

Delighted with his assured growth this year. This contract extension is rightful recognition of a ripper in the making.

Must say I do like the MFC twitter's humour.

Has become one of my favourites to watch. Plays with a maturity beyond his years.

Congratulations Judd. Very well deserved contract extension.

Hopefully, his trajectory continues like the Sparrows and Jordans.

Love that Salem took him under his wing. Certainly shows similar composure, competitiveness and ball use.

The depth we now have across the whole team in each position is incredible.

So close!

The best Judd to ever play the game.

Kozzy is from WA but lived in SA during high school etc, if I remember correctly 

Could be right;  all 3 clubs prior to MFC are SA

Old mate Tim Lamb goes alright too.

JT and TL must have been watching this kid for some time Judd McVee plays with such awareness, skill and confidence that he continually surprises you when watching the game he plays like a top 10 pick.!!

[Deeoldfart 7,818]

Outstanding work Judd.  Hard work and commitment already paying off, and this is just the start!
Outstanding rookie selection!  
Outstanding Club culture to keep him in red & blue!
We just keep raising the bar higher!

Darn straight Matt!

Thought he had numerous opportunities to show his class (and he is classy rather than agricultural) last night. Some really fantastic work, and very composed in traffic.

Did not see this young man coming at all!  It’s an incredible transformation over the course of a year at the club.  A lock down back pocket who is assured, polished and classy with ball in hand.  He frees up Bowey and Rivers to be more attacking.

We may have found an absolute gem.

[Redleg 38,021]

Judd has been a revelation and is getting better.

We have a 10 year player here.

I am sure he will be managed at a point but McVee’s current form has him in all year. In current form when Salem returns I suggest Brayshaw and Rivers play more midfield time and Sparrow may be in the gun. Otherwise I can see us rotating the management of Old Man Hibberd with the younger half backs (McVee, Bowey, Rivers) to keep them fresh. 

Unsure where he played his junior footy but I can see McVee moving into our midfield in the coming years.

Slotted in beautifully.

Watched him quite a bit at Casey on the box & 3 to 4 games live.  Showed signs and also had the occasional class / silk moments in game but didn't stand out (for me) as being THIS capable / ready to go in a four quarter / weekly sense up with the big boys.

Goes to show you just don't truly know with some players unless you give them the opportunity.  No doubt professional scouts/more learned observers who were watching saw extra aspects that i probably missed during his Casey time and hence the call up/opportunity was given.

Still, just feel like i'm watching a 21yo 70 to 80 game player who's been in the system for about 3 years or so.

Bowey was a similar story but imv showed a bit more over four quarters and over a slightly longer period (?) at Casey before he got his chance.

19, only 9 games and wringing wet.  The upside here is titillating!
