Crushed... will be shattering to see juddy running around in another guernsey... we deserve the first 3 draft picks, Fevola and a small island in return for Judd.
Just want this season to be over, tbh.

Fev has no place at West Coast. The big Q is the man there at the moment. It also begs the question: why would Judd go to the blues anyway?? They're likelihood of making the finals (especially if indeed traded for Fev) aren't awesome.

fev stated during the year that he wouldnt rule out playing for west coast. Lynch will dominate so much more with him He'll get the 3rd best defender and roam

Yeah, don't know what you're smoking but Carlton's got a decent list and it'll get much better if they bring in Judd and still have pick #1 (and therefore a gun young ruckman). Plus Fev would fit right in with the ****ty culture at the Eagles. It's no secret their biggest failing in recent years has been goals, with Fev playing from the square and Lynch pushing up the ground, as well as Hansen pushing to the flank. They could be dangerous. They've got the young mids to cover Judd, plus then they'd have pick #3 and a shot at the next Judd.

They're saying now he's just as likely at Collingwood. No idea what they'd trade for him (they've got plenty of young stars to throw around) but they can offer him plenty more money than everyone else, potential captaincy if not next year but the year after, a genuine shout at a premiership dynasty and even his missus a job at Channel 9.

Money isn't an issue if Pratt wants him at Carlton, him being a billionaire and all, however I remember him saying he wouldn't give Carlton any hand outs, so not sure if that policy will change though. Him and Nick Stevens in the midfield would be so gun although not sure anyone would want to come to Carlton, it's a trainwreck tbh.

Would love him here though, he will imo, finish his career fitness permitting as one of the greatest players of the modern era and I'd make him captain as well.

Fevola would fit in with the WC culture so well also.

Carlton would be a pretty damn good team if they retain #1 and get Judd. Assuming Nick Stevens regains some match-fitness and form, and Murphy and Gibbs have good preseasons and build up their bodies and fitness, adding Judd makes it a pretty damned good midfield. No-way they should give up their priority pick though.

If the Eagles set the price too high, they could shoot themselves in the foot and Judd to be off to Richmond gratis... :laugh:

Not sure how much I'd be happy for the Pies to surrender in exchange for him. We don't have a particularly early draft pick, and I'm loathe to part with any of our emerging stars. Maybe Ryan Lonie and pick #13? :p

AFL.com.au said:
COLLINGWOOD will wear predominantly black and Geelong mostly white in Friday night's preliminary final at the MCG to prevent a clash of guernseys similar to that witnessed two months ago.

Despite finishing lower on the ladder, the Magpies will wear their home strip of their predominantly black guernsey, black shorts and black socks.

Geelong will wear their traditional navy blue and white hooped guernsey, but white shorts and blue and white hooped socks.

AFL tradition dictates that the higher-placed team (in this case the Cats, who won the minor premiership) get to wear their home strip, but the AFL said Geelong were happy to play in white shorts to avoid a clash.

"We're confident that it should provide adequate contrast and I've spoken to the clubs and they're both quite comfortable with it," said AFL football operations general manager Adrian Anderson.
Disgusting. Is the AFL ever going to stand up to Collingwood, or anyone else for that matter?
