Judd behind schedule

Rocca had the same operation at the end of the year and he is hauling 105kgs around and back in training and played well in a praccy so there's hope for Judd
 
Of course I'd rather that but it wouldn't be as thylacine60 said, "an okay outcome". It would be a horrible outcome if he had to sit out the season.

Why? He's just a player, albeit a pretty good one. Hate to play devils advocate but losing him for a season or having him hobbled for the rest of his career - I know which I'd prefer.

I'm hoping all this filibustering from opposition supporters is just that but I hoped the same thing when the rumours about Stevo began last year. I was devastated when he had to sit out the season but now I think if it happens it happens.

I go to the footy to watch my magical Blueboys, not a single player. If the WORST that happens to Judd is a missed season, I can live with it. Might shake up a few supporters AND players who had been banking on riding his coat-tails to the finals.

When you're paying someone a million plus a year (~15% of sal-cap) and he's out for the year... then having to hope he gets back to at least 95% of his best after that without any hickups for the rest of his 4 years... I'm sorry I'm concerned... especially if Josh Kennedy becomes a premier CHF.

Why would this if-but-maybe have any bearing on the if-but-maybe I mentioned? We have no control over what happens to JK now. We DO have control over Judd and his injury.

You saw the contract did you?:cool:
 
No real need to rush him. Carlton are still in a rebuilding year, all the pieces will come together over the next couple of years so its not important if Judd plays most of the games or not.

Given all the hype around Judd's potential groin problem, I believe that Carlton should come out and state if there is a real issue or not.
The build up of this issue in the media and on BF is causing many carlton supporters some real concern and it may all be a load of %$^&#**ing crap
 
A VERY reliable source informs me that Judd is fine, just overcoming the last 10% of his injury, and should still be ready for rd 1. But of course, we all knew that already, considering that's what's been written. Wow, perhaps what has actually been said is how it really is. Funny that. But I doubt it'll change the hate-mongers and illiterate from continuing to spread bullshit, and for some of our supporters to fall for it.

Carlton have denied it, and will keepy denying it, and you would to if it wasn't true.

This time of year, any rumour takes because

THERES NO FREAKING THING ON!!!!

Cant wait for 2 weeks time so these games get started....

Actually there is hardly any build up of this issue in the media at all. The Herald-Sun article in which Judd gave a nothing answer is the only real media coverage in relation to his injury. The rest of the build up has been on here, thanks to an unsubstantiated article on Bomberblitz based on the alleged opinion of a 'surgeon', who it would appear spoke more like labourer than a medical practitioner.

"You can **** off, mate! Just coz I wear a singlet and smoke Winnie Blues and suck down a coke and giant sausage roll for smoko every single, ****ing day don't mean I don't understand ****-all about Juddy's ****ing knee, mate."

"Get us some smokes if you're garn down, will ya?"

Lol. Brilliant. You need to stop hanging around the Lexus Centre.

True, but will he be doing any further damage whilst playing at 90% and will it ever fully heal whilst playing at 90%?

Completely agree. I personally don't want to see Chris Judd in the Navy Blue until he is firing on all cylinders.

90% would suggest he isn't far away though.
 
Juddy knows when his body is right, he will be on the pitch by round 3 at the latest!!!

His groin is healing quickly, better than expected. He didn't have a dodgy surgery, Carlton's management made sure that he saw one of the best surgeons in the land, I mean....if you had invested over $800k a year in a player, wouldn't you want to make sure that it was properly looked after / treated?

All the sour grapes and jealousy from everybody making speculation that Judd will crumble is just something to laugh at.....furiously. Seriously get over the fact that he chose us and not your team! You can't reverse this now!
 
SEN were discussing Judd this morning in the Morning Glory

and they were hoping to get someone from Carlton to talk to the station

as there were a few rumours that Judd came off the plane a little worse for wear!!

so if anyone is listening to SEN, let us know if they get someone on!!!
 
any thruth to the rumour that he did his knee overnight and wont play till 2009??

heard it on the grapevine!

its ok, carlton wont be good till 2010 so he'll be fully recovered by then to get your miserable mob to at least 12th on the ladder!!
