However unlikely it is ridiculous to say we are out of the race for Judd as we have the the 1st pick in the PSD.
Remember Lockett chose us his preferred club when he wanted to leave the Saints at the end of 1994. St Kilda wanted the like of Campbell, Knights and even Richo which we refused. Lockett then heads to wooden spooner Sydney and the Saints only end up with Robert Neill (yes who?) and a few draft picks.
From memory wooden spooner St Kilda wasn't Aaron Hamill's choice. Carlton let him go to the "rabble" when Hamill wanted out of the Blues.
Then there's the Nick Stevens scenario:
The Pies want Stevens.
Stevens nominates the Pies as his preferred option.
Stevens' club (Port) refuses to deal with Pies.
Stevens ends up at the wooden spooner via PSD.
Now substitute Judd's name for Nick Stevens in the above
The Pies want Judd.
Judd nominates the Pies as his preferred option.
Judd's club (West Coast) refuses to deal with Pies.
Judd ends up at the wooden spooner via PSD
