As mad as it sounds I have to admit I am not that worried about what happens to Judd.
Do I want him to stay? of course, who wouldn't? The blokes a complete champion. But, if he decides to go back to Melbourne what can you do? I know the club will do everything in it's power to keep him. They will treat him totally fairly to make sure he stays. But after all that it's still Judd's decision.
History shows some of these guys stay (Pavlich, Morrison, Gehrig - whilst we still wanted him) and others go (Headland, Jeff White). It's probably 50-50. But what I like about the Woosha led Eagles, and what will see us in good stead no matter what Juddy decides, is that it is never one man is bigger than the team. As good as Judd is - and we know he is damn good! - there ae 30-odd other blokes pulling on the jumper to give the great Woosha his all. The club will not jeopardise this really encouraging time for the club for one player - no matter how good. So, in the worst case scenario Woosha, calm as ever, will gather the boys together, call on them to lift their games and take up the slack, and keep on winning footy matches!! That's the Eagles spirit. That's what it's all about.
Having said that it would truly bite watching Juddy in another guernsey running around the paddock... that would suck mightily
