Carlton-Judd threads [merged]

great investment for the blooze
= i finals win and no cigar.

2/3 years left at the max.

On one of the Blues forums, a poster there rated the Judd trade one of Carlton's worst lol. I think if you go through what picks they gave up to get Judd they could have instead drafted one of Dangerfield/Rioli, Scott Selwood and kept Josh Kennedy. Given Judd isn't the footballer he once was it's not such a ridiculous argument to make.

they thought they were further along than
what they are.

CARLTON has made official contact with the Mick Malthouse camp and will lodge a formal job offer as early as tomorrow night.


If the parties agree to terms, Malthouse will be announced as Carlton coach by the end of the week.

Malthouse is expected to be granted permission to continue working with Channel 7 and 3AW radio through the finals.

He would commence official duties on the Monday after the Grand Final on October 1.

Carlton is believed to have made the call on Saturday, with a meeting scheduled between Malthouse, his manager Peter Sidwell and Blues powerbrokers, including president Stephen Kernahan.

Malthouse, 59, spent the weekend discussing the Carlton job with wife Nannette and his closest friends and family.

The Blues offer will be for a three-year term, costing the club well over $3 million.

Malthouse has a view the Carlton list can be tweaked to win a premiership during his tenure.

"I will meet Carlton, that's just a fact," Malthouse said yesterday.

"And I need to see where they're at, where they're going. They need to see where I'm at, because I haven't spoken to them."

Malthouse, who has spoken often of the negative effect of coaching on family, said he alone would decide if he was to return.

CARLTON president Stephen Kernahan has conceded Chris Judd may retire from football sooner than the club hopes.

A report in the Herald Sun on Tuesday said the midfield star, who relinquished the Blues captaincy for this season to concentrate on his own performance, had delayed talks on a new contract until at least mid-season.

The report said Judd, 29, might consider an early retirement to pursue other interests.

How the Judd deal works

 THE AFL and Carlton have organised a deal allowing more than half of Chris Judd's contentious payments as a Visy ambassador to be paid as part of the Blues' injury payments allowance.

It was thought Judd's annual payments, of between $200,000 and $250,000, which until late last year had not been included under the salary cap, were now entirely included under the cap.

However, Fairfax Media can reveal more than $100,000 has been included as part of injury payments, with the remainder under the salary cap. The former captain is also paid a separate additional service agreement (ASA).

Judd's Visy deal is paid over the financial year. This has allowed some of the money he was owed in the final year of his six-year deal to be included in the last financial year and some in the current financial year.

AFL deputy chief executive Gillon McLachlan, league executive Andrew Dillon, Blues chief executive Greg Swann and Judd's manager Paul Connors met in late January to broker a deal.

I was just wondering, do the brown paper bags that get passed under the table have wax paper or not?

Always thought they would have used BBQ chicken bags with the foil lining a much stronger paper thanks to the greater GSM and durability
