Haha.

I don't know if Deetastic wants to share it with you and others, thats his choice (sensitive information, you see).

Let's just say that, if he's right(and he has good reason to believe he is), these media flogs are all going to lose their money at the TAB. Judd is very close to us. Not signed, not sealed, and certainly not delivered. But very close.

Personal message me it Diablo, I promise I'll never shut down a post you write ever!!!!

I'll agree with everything........ I'll be your best friend. haha.

Cool your engines gentlemen. Very close is a bit strong. Leaning towards is a better assessment of Judd's stance toward MFC (at least, according to what I've been told). But then, if true, that'd be all we would need going into a presentation with the man.

Anyway I'm not giving out the information. I know it's selfish. But a) he told me not to, because he has nothing to gain if it does get put up, and B) if he's not right, both Deetastic and I look like idiots. Naturally I have to take what he's saying with a grain of salt, as anyone can post anything on here. But if he's yanking my chain, he's been a member for over a year, so it's a very elaborate, long-winded build up to then only wind up one person.

All I'll say is that Jake Niall and the other hacks can speculate till the cows come home. They don't know anything.

If Dean Bailey can impress Judd as much as he did everyone in the coaching selection panel this will go a long way to helping him choose the D's

Absolutely. Everyone reckons Garry Lyon is the trick up our sleeve, but Bailey will be just as important. Judd is an intelligent man. He'll appreciate a coach with a thoughtful new approach and a genuinely intelligent perspective on football. Bailey may not have played this game before, but he needn't have. He just needs to reel off the same material that had Nathan Burke wishing Bailey had coached him.

He did notch up 53 games for Essendon.

No I mean the whole convincing/dealing with a player scenario (at least as a senior coach). I didn't mean he hadn't played AFL.

You sense that Judd is lookig for a new direction, some real satisfaction and excitement in his playing. Money is not the issue. medical care may come into it. I think MFC is quite well heeled in medical contacts.

I too think that if the club can get Gardner Bailey and Connolly together with say Lyon etc in a room with Judd and showcase the club going forward, well.. it would be like a dream come true for a kid who 's blood is really red and blue :) .

He can deny it but you never lose sight of a team you grow up barracking for.. you just cant do it..lol

Imagine coming into a team about to get serious and go places, remember our finishing poisition belies our real level !!

Go Bailey GO !!!!!!

Probably more so given he would be working directly under Bailey, not Lyon.

Plus I agree with Bub......again :rolleyes: !!!

Just breath Juddy, just breath ;) !!!

I love how they talk about the MCG being a big factor, but don't talk about Melbourne.

We played 12 games at the MCG this year, to Collingwood's 15. Next year, we're likely to play one more with the end of the Brisbane deal.

That's 13 vs. 15. We also happen to have our headquarters at the MCG, and are the ground's original tenants. But because we are Melbourne, we don't get a mention. This is exactly why we need Judd, so that we can stop being so damn insignificant!

Lets not forget the writing on the wall in the new MCG stand ... every time I go up those escalators my heart beats red & blue.

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

    BEST OF THE REST by Meggs

    Meggs' Review of Melbourne's AFLW Season 9 ... Congratulations first off to the North Melbourne Kangaroos on winning the 2024 AFLW Premiership. Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
