Filthy player. Carlscum through and through.
I don't like him, but I hate to see champions end like that.

His first game was against us in Round 2, 2002 at the MCG.

His stats for his first 100 games were superior to Fyfe and anyone else you care to name and included a Brownlow, Norm Smith and a premiership.
His move to Carlton to escape the toxic West Coast culture may in hindsight be seen as a mistake by both parties but no one can deny he gave them tremendous service. He became a harder inside mid from necessity due to the dearth of quality midfielders compared to the Weagles and while not as spectacular as during his halcyon Perth days he was still an undeniably great player.
It's always sad to see a champion bow out in this manner irrespective of who they play for.
Well Tony Lockett just got made a legend and he was a brutally dirty prick (as well as an awesome footballer) but the unsavoury aspects of his game have faded with the passage of time but we still remember his footballing deeds.FrankieGoesToCollingwood wrote:meh, he played on a year more than he should have and finished a few games short, spare me the crocodile tears! Dirty chicken winging, eye gouging mercenary, he'll get no sympathy from me. Great footballer, yes but the guy is a turd.
I don't disagree with any of that, it's all this sadness about the way he's bowed out that makes me want to dry retch.

It'll be the same with Judd. A few isolated incidents won't detract from Judds achievements and nor should they.
and what was Sickening the AFL allowed them to give Judda$$ the old brown paper bag trick under the TableBruce Gonsalves wrote:He went through the charade of choosing Victorian clubs, Collingwood, Carlton and Melbourne from memory, knowing full well he was going to the Scum because of a dodgy third party deal. Maybe know he can take his rather skinny wife out for a few counter meals to get some beef on her bones.
