I apologise. I'd be upset if I was an Eagles supporter and that happened. It would be incredibly irresponsible. He'd come cheap of course and if he stayed fit, he'd be a good stop gap. It's just such a risk for a rebuilding list that has such an incredible ongoing injury list.
If I was the Eagles, I'd stay well away from Mitch. I just can't see how he helps you. It would be accommodating the brothers so they can play together, but with their durability issues, it's just more of the same for you guys.
Having said that, I feel like he's playing fairly careful for us...
Forgive the intrusion folks.
As a Blues supporter, I'd happily have won a flag 5 years ago and been where you are right now. We have been there without any success to hang our hat on for a long long time.
This is where you go from revelling in good games, to appreciating good quarters, and...
I rate Schofield so figure it was a 50/50 thing.
Certainly saved a goal that I saw.
Confession time. I kept changing the channel when the Pies goaled. The AFL app told me the Eagles were coming back so I'd switch back and the Pies would goal again. I watched the first 8 Pies goals and saw none...
You misunderstood. I think some Carlton supporters feel a sense of kinship because we are hoping Judd can emulate what he did at the Eagles and we will then be able to relate to how you felt watching him run around.
In the spirit of the post i.e satirical ... there are two ways of looking at an ex. Through the eyes of the dumper and the eyes of the dumpee (jilted). If someone broke up with me, I will console myself with them not being able to do better. If I break up with them, I am doing so to improve on...
I'm not so sure about the gloating thing.
There is a weird sense of kinship I feel here. There is nothing a Carlton player can say about Judd in the future that an Eagle fan hasn't already said at some point. Been there, done that would be the obvious response whenever Judd does something...
The Pies board voted to change the title under their board name to 'Hated since 1892'. They don't like it when they aren't the number one hated club in anyone's eyes. You are shattering their main claim to fame.
I have read something about an 'out' clause in his contract. What wording and circumstances can you possibly use to get out of a playing contract? 'If Judd goes I go?', 'If someone is charged with drug possession, I walk'?
Not sure we could afford him anyway.
Who actually does the website? Just the same Telstra employees or do club affiliates do it? Either way, it is nice to see your website people are as incompetent as ours have always been. :D
Judd wanted to go to Carlton. Pratt did not have to offer more money to get him there because of anything the Tigers did.
Noticed your first preference is the PSD which is not the best option for the Eagles but definitely the best option for the Tigers. Let's not pretend that any club had the...
It seems that the Eagles do rate Kennedy and he is not just a small component of the deal. Based on that, I don't think it is Carlton that have been ramming him down the Eagles throat. I think the Eagles may have asked for him. I am relieved that he is wanted because I do not want him to go...
Josh has been asked about possible trades as has Bower. Josh is not sold on moving but his father has stated that Josh is a professional footballer and will go anywhere to play AFL. It has been said that Bower is more homesick. Bower has shown as much, probably more than Kennedy especially...
Good opening post. I am not 15 and the words 'or nothing' will not be used from here on in.
I am biased as I organise the Josh Kennedy sponsorship here on BigFooty. I don't fancy my chances or telling the club they better give us Judd to sponsor or else given the high flyers who will be...
If Carlton make what Judd thinks is a reasonable offer, and the Eagles try to trade him to the Tigers, then Judd may go to the Tigers eventually but his loyalty to the Eagles may be strained if they are not reasonable with Carlton, and he just may go to the Tigers for nothing in response.
The...
Is that how it works? Players attract a negative value? Okay, how about we take Kennedy off your hands taking it back to Pick 3 again, and then take the worst player on your list off your hands, which bumps it up to at least Pick 1. See how that works? Yeah nah, the fantasy calls don't work...
Richmond can offer Pick 2 all they want and the Eagles can say 'deal' but if Judd doesn't want to go there, he will hold firm. The Eagles can take the #3 + deal or let him go to Richmond for nothing. Not sure the Eagles would give up #3 for the chance of getting Pick #2 and risk getting...
One thing you can count on with Kennedy is a contest. Absolutely puts in on the ground and in pack situations. Has to hold his marks but that will happen as he bulks up (is already a decent lump of a lad). Highly rated two years ago, he will be a pack crasher like Earl Spalding but with...
Re: Judd hit with 4 week suspension
What part of it? Negligent is probably right, low impact is right, high contact is right.
So they actually have to prove that he did not touch the eyes at all to get off. Not sure that the AFL will be taking Brown's word for it either, as the vision is...
While I understand the point you are all making, it didn't stop Fevola being rubbed out for misconduct (they didn't charge him with gouging) for his fingers around the eyes of Antoni Grover, while Grover had him in a headlock and Fev was upside down, disorientated and could not see Grover's head...
If you want to start a fanciful thread, at least have the guts to take ownership of it, rather than blame it on the Carlton forum. If you don't have the courage in case you get bad responses, don't start a thread.
Judd is the bird in the hand and there are no better birds out there at the...
