Its time for Gary Lyon to give something back to the club that gave him everything he has

Well, we all know Chris Judd grew up idolising the Demons, and in particular our amazing skipper, Garry Lyon

Apparently, Chris wore the number 3 cos of Gary (I think thats true, can anyone confirm?)

Lyon is smitten with Judd. Judd respects Gary. So what role can Lyon play in getting Judd to the MFC?

I am pretty sure Chris Connolly will be on the phone to his mate Gary Lyon as I type this, asking him to meet with Juddy. Perhaps Connolly will be at the meeting as well.

Who knows?

Either way, I think we have every resource at our disposal to get Judd to the MFC.

    I wish you'd stop hanging it on Lyon every chance you get as if he owes the club anything at all. He doesn't.

    That said, if a phone call from him would make any difference at all in getting Judd here then I hope it happens. I seriously doubt it would make any difference at all though.

    How could Gary not owe the club anything?

    He wouldn't have made any name for himself in the media and the like unless he'd been a footballer, which he was at Melbourne.

    IMO I think any person that is given an opportunity (for some, the opportunity of a lifetime) to do something, they then owe that person at least something, and if it's a persuasive phone call in this case, then so be it.

    I think it's a good idea, if Garry can influence Juddy to come to the dees then that would be great.

    With Bizzell retiring, the number 3 jumper is now available! Who knows - could well be fate?!

    I have no doubt that if Gary or Jim or even Ron Barassi was asked to speak to Judd they would.

    I agree when you saying that Lyon may have influence in getting him to Melbourne (which won't happen). He seems to be the character that everyone loves. I'm sure many of you remember when Farmer almost left Melbourne to return to Perth and Lyon was apparently the main figure in getting him back. I have no doubt that had Lyon had more influence with Melbourne at the time of his depature he may not have even left (Farmer).

    In saying that, Judd won't be at Melbourne next year or ever, unless he makes it clear he only wants to play for us. I have a feeling the guy knows where his loyalty lies and it is killing him to say he wants to come home. I think it is possible he will come out and say he wants to play for us, and I don't think he would choose Carlton on Collingwood over us to be honest.

    Lyon can choose what he wants to do. U people make me sick. He loves the club but he doesent have to involved in it for the rest of his life

    Can confirm Judd wore 11 on his back for Jim Stynes.

    I'm loving the idea of a Lyon / Judd combination on the Footy Show, similar to the Eddie / Bucks combo the Pies used to have!

    It could become the MFC Footy Show!

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
