Hahaha. Some of these calls about Judd to Carlton I find more than a little amusing. Oh it was but a couple of months back that you could replace the word 'Judd' with 'Voss' in some of the above comments. Even the same phrases 'signed sealed and delievered' and other such rubbish.

Lol he won't be at Carlton.

I agree. I lost count of the number of people who reckon they had a source at Carlton with the whole Voss saga. No doubt they had a source, but in most cases the sources turned out to just be rumourmongers who liked the sound of their own voices.

Forgive me for being just a little bit skeptical of anyone who claims to have a "source" at Carlton.

Not calling u a liar but i find it hard to believe a deal's done 2 days after their season finished.

From all reports John Worsfold hasn't even talked to Judd about it and i refuse to believe Judd's gonna accept a deal without even telling Worsfold he's going.

Hell for all we know, Judd's still tossing the idea around of should he stay or go.

To me, it sounds like typical arrogant Blues supporter who thinks they can get anybody.

Remember Voss to Carlton. Zero from one.

You could be right that it is just another big mouth Carlton supporter ( hoping). However I note that Judd has called a press conference at 6.00 PM tonight that should enlighten us a little more. Also Worsfold was quoted as saying he would not stand in Judd's way if he wanted to come home and that suggests he knows a bit about it. Further I was amazed that the WCE kept playing Judd when he was obviously seriously injured, ( the papers call it a career ending type of injury if not fixed). If they knew he was going, they could have decided what the hell, make him play and his new club can suffer if he doesn't come up.

I for one am hoping we go hard for him. It's about time MFC had a player who was dominant in the AFL.

The only concern I would have is that if we are paying him 1.1 million a year. Will that mean we wont be able to get enough quality players around Judd?

I'm sure Chris isn't the sort of person overly concerned with money when it comes to playing for the team he supported.

I have been one of the negative posters that were saying "No" to Chris Judd....

I have now officially changed my mind!

The more I think about it, the more I like it.....

Being a Melbourne boy at heart and wanting to come back to Victoria has pretty much given me a stiffy!

We are struggling to come up with a 100% agreed upon replacement for Neitz as captain of our great club.....

Judd would maybe drop a few hundred thousand $$$ a year to be wearing the colours he was dreaming about as a junior!!

I can't see him going to Carlton, Collingwood, Essendon or Richmond.... If the kid barracked for the Dees then those choices are a disgusting thought!

If we offload TJ, Davey and our 1st draft pick????? I am pretty confident we would have Judd wearing no. 3 for the Red 'n Blue!!

Exciting times at Demonland!

PS. I know this is a huge change of opinion for myself, but I have done some serious thinking this weekend and have decided that things can't get any worse! We've waited long enough!!!

My source is on the Carlton Board .

Would you believe and trust 1 word that came out of the Carlton football club.

Would you believe and trust 1 word from the supporters & cheer squad that were barracking for their team to lose ... remember how they mocked us ... taunted us for winning. Remember ... "We got Kreuzer.. Melbourne are losers" ... their words not mine.

Would you believe and trust 1 word when you have ex President, ex-captains and legends of the club saying ... "Yes this is a game we need lose"

The Carlton Football Club has zero creditability.

What makes you so sure?

i've heard his manager talk about him on the radio... he said if there was one thing he would say about Chris Judd, it is that he's a man not motivated by money, and the way the man comes across in the media, it doesn't surprise me one bit...

lets hope he loved the dees enough that he wants to come back and play for us...

I want Judd more than anyone, but that is way too much to give up

I wonder if he's going to do an Akermanis and actually name his favoured destination?

Well the press conference is at 6 today

If he has already decided , and it happens to be the Demons...

Then Sunday the 16th of September, 2007 will be the greatest day of my life !!!!

The thought of him in a Carlton jumper makes me feel ill.

I suspect they'll field offers from interested clubs and make a decision on his preference pretty quickly.

Judd and Carlton just doesn't quite sit with me. It just doesn't seem right and I just can't see it happening.

If Melbourne do get Judd, then forget about needing Sheedy to "promote the club". Just having Judd in the red and blue will be enough promotion as it is.

Just stumbled across this on ninemsn.....

Blow for Eagles as Judd heads east

http://wwos.ninemsn.com.au/article.aspx?id=296384

I will be pretty dirty if the blues land him, after the way they finished out the year and snagged two early picks and now they can use these as leverage to land the best player in the game today just makes the game a shambles.

It's my understanding that Carlton cannot use their priority pick in any way, shape or form as trade bait. So that would leave them at best with pick 3 and.........Fevola the headcase?

Comeon Dees!

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player w

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo
