Duddles sells out (Again)

[Franc de Borges]

I don't remember Hawthorn making a serious play for the Duddmeister. We were probably too stoked with how the Budwah was going at that point.

Make a play? He didn't even give you the time of day, you were never in the running. Even Melbourne got a look in.

 

[Flat White]

The better teams generally have less in the cap. No surprise then he went sniffing around Melbourne, Carlton and Richmond.

The move was pre Hawks flag and beofre your now guns would have been on huge coin I would think.

What about the culture?

 

[Hodgepodge]

Make a play? He didn't even give you the time of day, you were never in the running. Even Melbourne got a look in.

Of course they did. Plenty of room in the cap for the bottom sides

Melbourne, Carlton and Richmond if I recall. Sense a pattern?

You think

Hawthorn were a team on the rise and played in a couple of finals in 2007.

Duddles is nothing if not a cash bloodhound, I doubt he looked at anything that finished in the 8 that year

It was between Melbourne, Carlton, Richmond. Good on Judd for looking after his interests. He does that well.

 

[Jamie007]

clutching at straws much? your club is known as the cheats for good reason .

Oh I see.. You dont consider half your side taking dru..."Injunctions", cheating...

Wow you must be proud... Wonder why your spud of a captain retired not long after said injunction?

Nice try Flog.. But u fail. Again..

You recall wrong. Carlton, Collingwood, Essendon and Melbourne.

The leagues 4 most successful clubs...sense a pattern?

Bwahahaha.. How does it feel to be OWNED flogpodge..

So neither of us actually know if they could afford him? Let's leave that one then.

Aside from your doubts, why did he site Hawthorn's culture as a reason he did not want to play there?

 

[Hodgepodge]

Who mentioned Collingwood?

Carlton, Richmond, Melbourne were the clubs in contention in the end

 

[Hodgepodge]

VISYton surely could've afforded him. Another 'coincidence' that he goes to the club with the richest backer. So either Judd is a cash bloodhound or he is sitting in the nexus of random chance.

 

[Jamie007]

Thats why his final choice was between Carlton and Collingwood.. You must get sick of being wrong all the time... How r those mars bars tasting.. I bet you have them deep fried..

I'll help you out there...
For legal reasons we arent allowed to say due to "injunction"

 

[Hodgepodge]

Maybe in Carlton's minds it was. In the same way that Kennedy was traded for Kreuzer to get Judd

 

[Franc de Borges]

Who mentioned Collingwood?

Carlton, Richmond, Melbourne were the clubs in contention

Never. That is patently wrong in every sense. He chose those four clubs to be interviewed by and it came down to Carlton and Collingwood.

For someone who talks so much about him I thought you'd know this. It was only two years ago.

Once again, get you facts right.

 

[Hodgepodge]

Like I said earlier it's interesting that he went sniffing around the bottom teams.

Clearly a winning culture was not what he was after.

Speak English.. Doesn't even make sense..

 

[Flat White]

Like I said earlier it's interesting that he went sniffing around the bottom teams.

Clearly a winning culture was not what he was after.

And clearly Hawthorn's culture was also not to his liking, hence the need for him to state that.

What could it have been?

 

[Jamie007]

Like I said earlier it's interesting that he went sniffing around the bottom teams.

Nah he didnt want to go to the same culture he had just come from..
He's not into the "such is life" style of living..

Your not very good at this are you

Go and get some tips to sharpen up, you sputnik

In life as in this and many other threads you FAIL abysmally...

now run along ooFLOG

No ofcourse not, four clubs with a combined total of 58 out of a possible 111 flags at the time is not successful? I'd love to see that Hawthorn success manual.

Give it up mate, you've been wrong numerous times and continue to dig yourself further into the mire.

 

[Hodgepodge]

And clearly Hawthorn's culture was also not to his liking, hence the need for him to state that.

What could it have been?

Winning culture, not enough room in the cap.

Judd went sniffing around the bottom teams, Judd goes to the club with the richest benefactor.

Needs room in the cap.

 

[Jatz]

carlton have 16 premierships. our culture is alright

 

[Flat White]

Winning culture, not enough room in the cap.

Judd went sniffing around the bottom teams, Judd goes to the club with the richest benefactor.

Needs room in the cap.

Fact or theory? Back ended contracts would have been an option?

Also, I thought we have covered the winning culture idea, and that would not be a deterrent.

So what was it about Hawthorn's 'culture' which made Judd not speak to them. It must have been something big.

 

[Mofra]

Adherence to the salary cap perhaps?

 

[Flat White]

Adherence to the salary cap perhaps?

Nah it must have been something else, he did speak to other clubs who did not methodically rort the cap the way Carlton did.

Just can't think about what it could have been, must have been a biggie.
