Judd offered captaincy if signed with the dees...


Madness

Recommended Posts

Not doubting you for a second Madness but.......

I have heard from some parts of the media that the captaincy would not be on his agenda.

It wasn't at the Eagles as he apparently had to be convinced to take it over from Cousins.

Then again, who the hell knows?!!!

Well that will go against us, im sure he has said that he does not want to be captain, at least not for a couple of years.

Don't think it'll go against us, but he won't take up the offer regardless.

We may have said that "the option of captaining the side, be it next year or down the track, is a big possibility".

I don't think our presentation team would be stupid enough to (more or less) force it upon him, given what Connors said on Monday. I suspect they will have said that the option may well present itself, but only if he is interested.

the more i think about the calibre of people sitting in our presentation with judd...i.e lyon, stynes, bailey (the man who presented so finely to get the coaching gig), connolly, gardener makes me think we could have successfully lured judd's mind to wearing red and blue and playing at the g next season...unfortunately- steve harris, and bohdan....what a useless ***. both have got to go...only thing holding us back as a club

Harsh, Steve Harris has done a pretty good job lately and gets the thumbs up

Harris deserves a lot more credit than he is being given....

Bohdan..... Bah!! Poo!! Leave and leave ASAP!!

Can't believe Krazy Bailey is still absorbing this peanuts thoughts!!!

Bohdan would have been there more for the medical side of the Judd injury than anything else

Yeah he was probably sitting there thinking, "Well at least those bloody Dees fans can't blame me for this injury."

I only have minor issues with Harris at the moment, and while I like confidence on him I don't have an actual problem with Bohdan.

It does concern me that there were quite so many people in the room at once - and these two were surplus to that discussion if you ask me.

I don't know if this has been put elsewhere, if so then sorry.......

Pratt: I'll make Judd skipper

What do you guys - figuratively speaking :P - think of wanting Judd to come in and captain the team?

Telling a guy who's yet to set foot in the door that he's the man you need to lead the team may appeal to ego, but doesn't really sell the Club's leadership.

I've had similar offers - in very different size and scope to an AFL Club captaincy, of course! - and have always been a bit unimpressed.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi
