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.

Exactly how much is a "pooftenth" there Graz ;):P ?!!!

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.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.
