Carlton-Judd threads [merged]

[Gordon Bennett]

Pie fans believe we would give up picks 2 & 19 for Reid and Brown.

I don't think we'd give that much.Both for pick 2, or it's "no deal".

[one-eyed]

Rumour File said this morning that Josh Fraser didn't play Friday because he became aware he was being offered as trade bait for Chris Judd and not happy.  And it is alleged he or his management rang Carlton Thursday night and said he would enter the draft to be picked up by Carlton.

The Herald-Sun has copied BF:

There has been speculation that Fraser and possibly Alan Didak could be traded to Richmond, which would pass on its No. 2 pick, along with Richard Tambling, to West Coast.

With allegedly no back complaint, the presence of Fraser could have tipped the Pies over the line on the weekend into a GF.
Amazing story if true

No Friggin way!!! Didak is a lazy footballer who does one miraculous kick per game and everyone thinks he's a legend. He should be traded to the Melbourne victory where his bicycle kick may actually be of some benefit. Throw Pendlebury and Goldsack in and then we can talk!

If we traded pick 2 and Blingers for Fraser and Didak, Punt Rd should be closed down.

The Pies are in the worst trading position of all the clubs chasing Judd. Even if they were to trade for a top 10 draft pick (say pick 9 to the Saints for whoever) the Weagles would still prefer picks 3 and 20 off the Blues than picks 9 and 14 off the Pies. Pick 14 is only just before our second pick at 18.

Maybe someone should email Greg Miller and co. and let him know that if we do get Fraser and Didak, he'll be shot, and probably by several supporters.

The Pies will have to give up something big for Judd, especially if he nominates them. It'll be too tempting for them. If they go in with the mindset of 'you have to accept Holland and Davis other because Judd is leaving anyway', West Coast will let him slide for nothing.

My theory is they'll think they are a Judd and ruckman short of a flag, and will lean towards trading one of their gun youngsters playing seniors at the moment and an unproven high draft choice.

The Pies must be spewing they didn't hold onto Tarrant for another season.

SEN just said we're the smokey but when they contacted Richmond yesterday we told them there's been little talk about Judd at Punt Rd. Obviously keeping our cards close to our chest.

... and judd will come to Richmond 

[mightytiges]

Judd has 7 votes already. The problems he had with his groin injury will make him drop away in the count but imagine what it would do to trade week if Judd won a second brownlow tonight.
