I know this has been done to death but new rumours of Chris Judd leaving WCE has surfaced. with trade period only 3 weeks away, it is highly topical again. it seems Judd is not that happy at WCE (and with their gangster, druggy culture who could blame him tbo) and would not rule out coming back to melbourne to play footy.

Now let's make a huuugggeee assumption. trade week has just started and Judd nominated the demons as his prefered club to play for (ala Akermanis and bulldogs). it is now up to WestCoast and demons to make a deal that is reasonable and fair to both sides...

Who would you be willing to trade for Judd?

NOTE: Judd is in the top 3 players in the afl. we have not had a player in the top 20 players in the afl for about 10 years!!! he is a genuine superstar and you have to give up quality to get quality!!!

My possible trade:

1) Johnstone and pick 4 to WCE (quality midfield replacement and top draft pick)

Judd and pick 40something to MFC

2) Pick 4, Sylvia and Davey to WCE (high pick, and 2 young quality upncomers)

Judd and pick 40ish to MFC

3) pick 4, pick 21 and Mclean to WCE (2 good draft picks and Mclean a gun youngster)

Judd and Staker to Melbourne to MFC

I know I am a one eyed demon supporter, but are these fair trades?i reckon all of mine of probably well in favour of us, but keep in mind that if Judd nominates us then WestCoast are a little bit stuck in that they have to bargain with us or risk losing him in the PSD...

oh how id love to see Judd at melbourne. finally we would have a player whos actually in the top 2 players in the league.

What would people give up for him?

    I stopped reading there. You're all blinded my Brocks (and our) shithouse season. Brock McLean is still oozing with leadership qualities and under no circumstances should be traded. That's right, not even for god...

    but you might note that this trade includes Judd AND Staker. Staker by himself would be worth a top 10 pick...otherall it balances out. gotta give quality to get quality.

    I too would love to see judd in the red and blue but what to give WCE is a very difficult desion. Your trades are alright but we lose to much for the one player. My prefered trade would be:

    Miller (Young versitile KPP do appeal to some clubs especially clubs without many forwards) and a quality midfielder such as green, bruce travis etc. (My choice would be Green now ok i know he is a hard midfielder who always tries his hardest with lots of leadership qualities but i think judd fills all these and thensome.) and a late draft pick i.e 4th pick

    Miller, Green and our 4th Pick (im not sure what it is)

    For Judd and one or 2 of there picks (if one then a 2nd pick if two then lower ones)

    People have been worrying about Judds injuries but personally (im no doctor but heres my opinon) I think its not OP and after some rest over the pre season he will be fine for 2008

    Make no mistake. The MFC should be celebrating for a week if it landed Judd. I know I would. It's not a flag, but arguably the next best thing. And could deliver one. If he wants to come back to Victoria we should leave no stone unturned in getting him. His injury (some floating bone in his groin) will be relieved by a minor operation.

    Let's stop being an also ran. An irrelevent club. A minor consideration. Nice.

    If he's available, get him.

    What would I pay ? Pick 4, Bruce, Frawley (West Coast were very interested last draft).

    You're really offering pick 4 and Green. It won't get it done.

  • Quote

    I agree Hannabal

    LETS BE BOLD

    LETS SHOW SOME INITIATIVE FOR ONCE

    Lets put pull all stops to get C.Judd to Melbourne

    He will have groin surgery in the next fortnight, and he will be as good as gold

    Who wouldnt want a fully fit JUDD running around for the MFC? He will be the best player to ever pull on the Red and Blue, and we will be able to watch him and cheer for hiom every week!!

    MY TRADE

    Demons send Cameron Bruce, Chris Johnson, pick 4 and pick 21 to the Eagles

    for Chris Judd and pick 15

    Mad to get Judd at any price and if you think he alone will win a GF think again, do you think a mill a year as reported will solve the problem then you are barking up the wrong tree, not worth it.

    Where are you Rhino?

    I'd offer Ferguson, Miller, Pettard's busted lung plus pick 86 for Judd, Embley and their second round pick...... :rolleyes:

    That's fair :lol:

    I am pretty sure that no player is worth a million a year........

    This is because while he would make us better, the flip side is the cost problems it could cause with the rest of the list.

    One man can help win us a Premiership, but he certainly can't do it alone, and for that price he may well have to <_< !!!

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
