Rumor has it that WCE were after Johnstone, Davey + Pick 4 in exchange for Judd. MFC backed away as was too high a price to pay, which I personally believe was a very smart move.

Wouldn't suprise me at all if he ended up there, although I really do hope all the speculation is just a brilliant ploy of Bailey's to get Travis to actually care about his footy.... (or at least to appear to!!)

I like the other rumour better where Chris Judd was simply asking for too much money. Davey, Trapper and Pick 4 I would have done in a pooftenth of a second if we could have afforded Judd.

Damn straight.

If that is really the reason why Judd didn't choose us, this club really does need to have its head examined.

Which makes me think that it's absolute crap. Judd didn't come to Melbourne because Melbourne wouldn't pay him disgusting amounts of money for 5 years at the expense of its other future stars!

Y_M, for once in your life, I hope that your prediction comes true.

It's not an exact measure of time exactly... but it wouldn't be long. I'll have to consult my dear ol Ma.... it's obviously from a time when the conotation wasn't quite so loaded... not that there's anything wrong with that :)

Guest unstable punt
They don't need him, They have Priddis, Kerr and Cousins. TJ wouldn't even keep up with them at training

I hope Travis stays, new coach, new beginning. Don't forget he had 'Mr Mediocre' ND all his footballing life, IMO Bailey is just the thing he needs

He needs a good summer in the gym like alot of the MFC. They have to toughen up.

I think the MFC's better seasons came from Troys Broadbridges death, they played with spirit as a team, that all seemed to have faded away this season. Injuries did play a part in our poor season but I don't think we improved over the summer like other clubs. I dont think we had the right mentality either

if anything, all this speculation is only going to have a bad effect on TJ. he would be pretty [censored] off at the moment with everyone trying to trade him. think about his last match and his b & f year.

Travis Johnstone is the best player we have. If you all say he is lazy and doesn't care that doesn't say alot about the rest of the group.

He is not our best player. He plays a couple of great games a year. Real midfielders do that week in week out. He is a poor midfielder compared to the rest in the comp. He is a second rate Mid fielder, He is not in the class of Judd Kerr Cousins Burgoynes, Mitchell, Hodge, Ablett, Bartel, Goodes, Kirk, Black,Goodwin, Thompson, West, etc, etc.......... His midfield days are over! throw him on a WING Bailey. Leave the Midfield to McLean, Bruce Green JMAC and Jones.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
