View Full Version : One thing that worries me...
...last year Collingwood offered Jonathon Brown a 6 year contract worth $1m+ p/a is it possible that they could offer Judd the same?

yes but its not about what clubs can offer him
its about what clubs can offer West Coast and also which club he wants to go to!!

I think the clubs best placed to get Judd are actually Hawthorn and Collingwood. I think both have good lists, are close to Grand Finals and Premierships, and therefore could afford to throw a few genuine talents at WCE for a difference-maker like Judd.
So... I guess in that case... I think you're right to be worried!
Then again, if we don't get Judd, let's not forget the optimism we had 1 week ago, before he bailed on the Weagles... we have a young list with some real talent, and picks 1 and 3 in the upcoming draft! Sweet!

I think the Pies are the favourites to get him. People have been saying it doesn't matter what the Eagles want, its about what Judd wants. And why would Judd prefer Carlton over Collingwood? Both sides supposedly have awsome young lists full of potential, except the Pies have made the preliminary final and we came 2nd last - which would you prefer? as well as that, Collingwood is the biggest club in the AFL, would be a great home for hte biggest player in the AFL. People are saying its an advantage for us that all that matters is Judd's choice of club, i disagree, its a disadvantage as it would be better for us if it was all about who the eagles wanted to trade with, as we can offer them the most

I reckon that the hawks might struggle in a few years to fit all their players in the cap.
Collingwood is our only danger but we have the draft picks that W.C want not players as stated.
Collingwood will have either pick 14,15,16 or 17.
They would need to trade for draft picks and then some.
Could be a bit to difficult. And who on their list will they trade to get a top 10 pick. I can only see Didak that wants to leave.

I think you are right...but lets keep our fingers crossed we get him at a reasonable price.
A collingwood supporter pointed out if they trade someone like Didak to South Australia, Collingwood could also get an attractive trade package together as well. Also, I think a lot of Collingwood young guns playing next week would still wouldn't be on mega buck yet.
