Whether we get Judd or not, it seems like our camp has done everything possible, and that encourages me greatly.

Absolutely agree!

It appears as though we have done whatever we can and acted as professionally as we could have to entice Judd to the club.........as supporters, that is all we can ask.

If he still doesn't want to come, then at least we know we have some quality people in charge both in the footy dept and admin leading us forward.

I am at the stage now that regardless whether or not we've got Judd - I'm bloody excited we've got Bailey.

I still want Judd though!!

Ditto. This man is certainly making all the right noises. Definitely looking forward to seeing what he can do with us.

Just on Footy Classifieds:

The meeting with Melbourne was apperantly very impressive and Judd was impressed with Dean Bailey (inspired selection?!).

Gary Lyon said that he tried to break the perception of the MFC as poor and unsuccessful. Interestingly, in the last 10 years, 3 teams have played more finals than any other; West Coast, Essendon and MELBOURNE.

The club also went through the new facilities and gave Judd a presentation on our list. It's a good thing we've had this 'Get Judd' committee set up, as we were obviously well prepared for the pitch.

Good stuff all around.

Dean Bailey is without a doubt a massive wild card for us. I'm sure he's more impressive one-on-one than Ratten (who didn't make our shortlist), and whoever they have representing Essendon at the moment (The Velvet Sledgehammer! :D)

I just spilt my pants...again :P

A post from Demonology. Not sure how reliable it is, as we all know, there's a lot of supposition going on at the moment (including what the real story with McLean and Carroll in Germany is). I read somewhere that Judd has met with Collingwood as well, so hopefully we will know more soon. Anyways, here's the post:

Hello fellow posters please heed the following message. As we all know Judd met with the powers that be of the MFC earlier in the week. I am one of, if the only person who has a viable link to the club. Therefore I wish to relay the following news of how the meeting went this week.

Dean Bailey significantly enhanced the clubs chances of bringing Judd to MFC. Chris likes the new gameplan and is intersted as the where the club is headed. There were a few powerbrokers who attended the meeting and Judd told them that the MFC was now in the top two clubs of where he woud like to go ( He saw Collingw&%$ today). However irrespective of this I have been told that, he informed the club that the race was between the mfc and Collingw&%$ football clubs.

It is believed that in order to secure Judd melbourne are willing to trade Johnstone, Robertson and Sylvia to not only West Coast but other clubs. The transition in which Judd is involved will not be a straight swap with the Eagles shoud we gain his vote. It is believed there would have to be some significant trading with other clubs to get him.

If I hear any more news I shall let you guys know asap.

Thanks for that.

Eddie was on The Couch tonight, and the they were once again stating that Judd wanted to go to the Pies. Eddie was trying to turn the trading situation into "West Coast owe a fair bit to Chris Judd".

I'm sure the Weagles must be thinking "Yeah, you're right Eddie, how about you give us Rhyce Shaw and we'll call it a straight swap". Not.

I had a discussion at my work with a Blues supporter and he said that apparently in the interview we asked him whether he wanted to play for Melbourne, and he added, with a goofey grin, Judd took his jacket off and revealed a Melbourne top.

I know it's probably BS, but a i guy can dream! :wub:

i just blew a load :rolleyes:

Eddie has already commented to the notion that he wont decimate his list to get Judd.. So short of kidnapping him Im not too sure what he intends to spring on the whole dealing ?

I have to confess, i sms'd that one into SEN, on their Friday arvo segment "Tell us something we don't know". I was driving around daydreaming about how funny it would be if Juddy did that.

Maybe he secretly just had the red and blue footy socks on instead.

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    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 with

    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
