Judd

[year of the cat]

What would you give up for him? He is just what we need - fast, skilled midfielder.

My thoughts - Joel Corey (go home factor) plus first two draft picks

Probably still not enough......

 

[cat_fanatic]

We would certainly need to give up more than Corey and a couple of draft picks (particularly since our first draft pick will most likely be low (10 – 16). It would take something like Hawkins, first/second round draft picks and someone proven like Corey or Bartel.

Honestly though there is no way the club would do that. Judd is good, there’s no doubt but if we won a flag in 08 or 09 with Judd people would argue it’s only because of him that we could make it. I’d prefer to draft young kids to our club and watch them develop over time and eventually compete for and win a flag.

 

[darren forssman]

what about kelly, steve johnson, tenace and a first rounder...they would be gagging for that.

 

[darren forssman]

why would we go for judd when thompson would still play Ling in the midfield over Judd?

 

[ripitup27]

Playfair and Gardiner. Then throw in Hawkins, Selwood, Djerrkura, Chapman and the Ablett boys. Might also have to give them a handful of draft picks and a couple of mil in cash. And seeing as it's West Coast, maybe a shipment straight from SE Asia and a get out of jail free card.

Then we might get him.

 

[Tristagi]

Tenace, S. Johnson, Henry Playfair, Ling and 1st round pick

but that would be a steal... but knowing our luck Ling would finally play good footy and Judd would blow out his knee

Nothing wrong with fantasising. But forget it, we couldn't afford him and London to a brick he'll stay with Westcoast anyway.

Not going to happen. I don't think Judd would want to go to Geelong and I don't think we would give up enough.

But I recon it would take:

Corey (Go Home Factor), Selwood (Play with his Bro) and our first round (Pick 16).


Seem bloody costly though.

Judd barracked for Melbourne as a kid, I imagine he'd be most likely to go there.

 

[chapmanmagic35]

Would give Corey and three picks in a heartbeat.

They would play hardball though.

 

[RememberMe]

Who's to say Judd won't drop off. I think that's too much of a gamble. I would prefer Geelong just try and unearth their own Judd... Or their own Jonathan Brown...

Selwood and Hawkins in a year or two???

agree.
We have some good young guys coming through, that will last a lot longer than Judd will.
While he's sensational, we need to be looking at more than just one player if we want to win the flag.

my lil brain can't handle these threads.


when was the last great coup anyhoot??

 

[nananana catman]

Judd is an awesome player, but West Coast did pick him up with just one draft pick.

Trading away a host of good players and draft picks although he is probably worth it, seems to me to be putting all our eggs into one basket. Imagine if we traded away 2 good players and a first round pick and Judd did his shoulder...

FWIW I seriously doubt that he would come to Geelong anyway.

 

[nananana catman]

Selwood and Hawkins in a year or two???

In two years time their combined output could well be more than judds.

Have to be Otto, might just reward us this yr with 60+ goals this yr, if King can stay fit that is.

 

[DBAH0]

Joel Corey and our 1st pick would have to be definites.

I'd also offer any of our young players not named Selwood 21 or under, and see if you could reach a package there.

Realistically though, we've got no hope.

Would be interesting to see if Hawthorn would do Franklin for Judd.

probably, not just GFC but AFL wide.

Need I remind you of the last time we pulled off a major recruiting coup from West Coast - a wonderfully talented player by the name of Brett Spinks.

We've stolen a player with the talent of Judd before, we'll do it again.

 

[Barrabus]

More importantly, how many clubs would throw their seasons for the off-chance being able to pick up Judd in the PSD.

It could be our lucky year, there'd be more teams aiming for the bottom than the top.

 

[Tristagi]

why are people wanting to give up Corey, his our best midfielder

 

[nananana catman]

Would you trade our best forward for Gary Ablett snr?

 

[Claude Balls]

why are people wanting to give up Corey, his our best midfielder

He's not our best midfielder.

And even if he was, Judd is 5 times as good so of course we would trade him.

 

[AM]

Ablett and Bartel. But can we afford the 1mil a year the Eddiepies would pay. Nooooooo!
