Fox News reports Demons are red hot favorites for Judd

I can confirm the Fox Sports Report, which was on channel 513 around 1:30pm.

They did a cross with their reporter Julian de Stoop, who indicated that Collingwood and Melbourne were the key contenders for Judd, and he sort of emphasised the battle between Collingwood having facilities and media spotlight and us needing Judd to boost membership and give Melbourne a bigger profile. They had the feeling he would rather not play for a club that is completely in the spotlight and that it doesn't really suit his style to be a constant media focus - especially after having lived in the fishbowl in Perth.

Nothing outstanding out of the segment, but it did say that we were the club that people would rather see him go to, which was a strange but interesting comment.

    Cheers for that Hards :) !!!

    Thats sounds a lot different to the hype created above. Still based on a 'feeling' and we are in the mix with Collingwood.

    Hardly saying we are red hot favourites.

    OK gotta give up watching these threads. too much reporting based on nothing.

    This from a poster off another forum. Now I wouldnt normally post something like this becuase there is a million rumour being thrown around, but the poster in question has been a member for years and is not a troll and only partakes in intelligent footy discussion

    Will be announced either tomorrow or Monday at the latest. Judd is going to Melbourne. They're offering $3 at the moment on Sportsbet and betting will be suspended in the next couple hours as the word is starting to get out.

    It's happening Demons, lucky bastards.

    I saw that YM. Interesting to note that a different poster on that 'another forum' ;), who is a Geelong supporter, has also heard that particular rumour, from a different source.

    If he comes to the Dees it will be almost like winning a flag for me. That said, i won't allow myself to get caught up in the myriad of rumours. I need a lot more concrete evidence.

    I saw it too. There is a poster on there that said Ari (guy who started rumour) also said that Sheedy and Hird will be back at Essendon in 2008. This says to me he is full of it! Bloody hope I'm wrong tho!!

    Me too. The "principle" of him choosing us over Carlton's money and Collingwood's general all-round appeal for players would be a massive, massive win for us.

    I'm finding it hard not to get excited now, but the grounding fact is none of this is any more credible than the other carp that has him at Collingwood.

    I wish he'd announce it already and put as all out of our misery.

    Yes, and that bloke is a Collingwood supporter, clutching at straws, and unable to comprehend that the filth would not be the first choice. The fact that Ari is not a Melbourne supporter lends a fair amount of credence to what he's saying. That this rumour also popped up on a filth forum yet more credence.

    I'm certainly with Nasher and Hannabal in wanting to have some concrete underneath before I start to build my house, but it's hard not to get excited.

    Everywhere I turn I hear that we're Judd's first choice but until we have him signed at the end of trade week I won't believe it because I'll be devastated if the rumours turn out to be false.

    Haha thats funny.

    From what Sportbet have done, their 28 hours market, can we expect a decision in the next 48 hours?

    As long as it turns out to be a gold one, then its a good thing.

    I think the announcement will be after GF day, or if he didnt want any media coverage do it on GF day as everyone will be too focused on the game.

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
