Despite rumblings over the past week suggesting Carlton recruit Chris Judd had re-aggravated his troublesome groin in South Africa, Blues’ football manager Steven Icke told SEN radio in Melbourne on Wednesday that the former West Coast captain was on track for a debut in Carlton colours late in the preseason.
Icke did add that Judd ‘pulled up sore’ from some intense training over the past week or two.
“It’s fair to say that he pulled up a bit sore, but when you realise he hasn’t done a lot of the football training since the preseason started, you’re going to pull up a bit sore from doing a full scale training session,” Icke said.
Judd underwent a groin operation in the off-season, but is scheduled to be ready for Carlton’s season opening home and away clash against Richmond at the MCG on March 20.
“His recovery is on track and we expect him to play about round three of the NAB Cup,” Icke said.
