Nothing that not only Ablett should learn, but plenty of other mid-fielders.

 

[Beloved]

Wow... All of a sudden, i've developed a man crush on Gary Ablett Jnr.

IMO, all players can learn from each other, no matter how good or bad. Ablett could learn Judd's poise, Judd could learn to manoeuvre himself with the pase that Ablett does, ect.

He was on his way to 30+ possessions against Crowley before the injury & has beaten every tagger in the game. Nothing against Judd but Walls & Lane seriously need to cut down on there obsession with Carlton.

yup. Gaz was arguably best on ground before he got injured. Robert Walls is a strange man. After the West Coast game he was saying nobody can stop Ablett, and now all of a sudden he should learn from Judd how to break tags?

Now Judd just wouldn't do that. He never squeals to umpires. He never engages in push and shove with opponents off the ball. He doesn't get caught up in verbals and, when the heat is on, he doesn't look for an easy out by retreating to the open forward line. And unlike Ablett, Judd doesn't have anyone at Carlton who goes out of their way to batter and bruise his opponent. No, Judd just pushes into heavy traffic to use his courage, skills, smarts and amazing will power.

What he's trying to say is, both are amazing players....Ablett could learn and improve off Judd if he watched how he handles a tag or verbal jousting. He lets it get under his skin, where as Judd does not

Maybe read the article properly before going off on a tangent

To an extent I agree with you, I would love it if Ablett just played the ball and spent less time trying to grab the umpires attention. However, does Judd constantly get kneed and corked off the ball? Gaz cops worse treatment than Judd IMO.

I can't speak for when he was at West Coast as I don't have foxtel so pretty limited in what I could see. At Carlton though no, he doesn't receive as much as Ablett. I've seen him cop a few whacks this year, he usually just strolls off and leaves it be...I've seen him hit back a couple of times.

IMO Judd is the ultimate professional, everything he does oozes class...the only drawback is his lack of passion. Then again we have Fev his 'passion' can do for the whole team

Judd's final quarter was some of the best footy I have seen recently by an individual in a Navy Blue jumper. Can't wait to see what he is like when he has a full pre-season underneath his belt.

Juddy goes ok for a guy not one of the best 20 mids in the competition

You make no sense with this post .... isnt there only 16 midfields in the afl competition ...

I can only hope that your attempting some dry humour, if not my post was ( and i should have linked it, but still will not bother ) aimed at a thread started by an eagles bf member some weeks back, the title being Judd not one of the 20 best midfielders going around, a thread that drew most carlton posters to it at the time, sorry if you didnt happen to be one of them.

 

[Blueinblood]

I hope your joking Murph

Who can't see past the bias? who would be the better player in the eyes of any ex-cat player, i might have bought into it if the person writing it was worth any significance, or hadn't played for one of the teams

Could it be that Judd does not cop as much because his opponents know it will not work:

Bias - who can't see past the author? Did you even read the article - you certainly haven't commented on it
