Judd's comments

Just wondering if anyone else thought similar to me on Chris Judds comments on the Footy show last night, when probed about the tanking he said it was before his time blah blah blah then made a comment like "at least I guess we haven't had players getting arrested" surely he was not having a crack at us...

nah he was talking about Cousins etc..

I found out it funny at the end when garry lyon said " You have no idea how much it kills me to see you talk to us when you are infront of the MCG as a carlton player, Could of been the Dees" And Judd just smirked like the weed he is

Judd was talking about how tanking became an issue again because no AFL player was getting arrested for the media to report on.

Basically saying tanking was a media-induced beat up.

The AFL brought tanking up by going after Roos so hard, not the media, but anyway...

he must be proud of himself coming to a melbourne club to pursue business interested because Dick Pratt could help out and to be at a successful club etc - now define success a team that deliberately loses to gain an unfair advantage the following season? some may see that as success, turns out Dick Pratt is a crook and been ripping blokes of for year and Judd just goes and starts up a croc'o'shiat company that anyone with a profile could get going, certainly wouldnt need much help with that! tossa.

Why come to Melbourne? We have little to no profile at the moment.

Because 6 months ago Carlton was having similar profile issues.

Judd would have made all the difference and there is absolutely no doubt about that at all.

No. Carlton were worse. But they have Dick Pratt bankrolling the Club, they had arguably one of the most astute CEOs available in the business appointed. However Carlton are not out of the woods.

Judd would have helped MFC but he is not pencillin to all our other problems.

Given Melbourne's preseason Judd probably thinks his decision not to join us is vindicated, which makes me angry, not at Judd but at our club.

Gouga, I dont think Judd was ever going to join us from the start. Any alleged interest was a cover for the true intention...chasing the $$$ at Carlton. Save your anger.

If our smug friends at Carlton aren't successful in the next couple of years just watch them turn on Judd and Pratt.

Gotta love Friday evening...one of the best times for reading and responding. Especially if it's a night in.

Judd was never a happening thing for us. Top presentation by the Board and assorted luminaries nonetheless according to all reports. But whisk him off to Leighoak for fish-fingers and prawn cocktails with thousand island dressing was never going to compete with...

the pomp and circumstance of Raheen with cartel king Pratt holding court in glittering surroundings with a quiet word that your future is assured if you play for us.

We simply couldn't compete and, like each of us, Judd would like to secure his future which he's done in spades.

I don't bear him any ill-will. He made his choice. Get over it.

Where's the proof?

U like pulling up people for going on popular opinions without knowing the true facts. Do you know for fact Judd's interests was only a cover?

I do and I can understand why plenty of other Dees fans do as well. He chose Carlton over us... He chose the bad guys over the good guys. Financially it maybe the right thing to do... but Karma's a [censored]. We'll know by about rd 4 whether they chose the right surgery.

I spoke to a major sponsor who said he had been told by a Carlton Board Member, mid last year, Judd was definitely going there this year.

In that case I'll re-direct my anger to the fact Judd miss led us Melbourne (not to mention Collingwood and Essendon) supporters. If he was always going to Carlton why wasn't it a simple matter of asking for a trade to Carlton from the start?

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
