These incidents from Judd are sort of creepy.

It's not like a bloke going off in a rage - even the mild mannered Bruce Doull managed that. It's not even a payback type throw of the elbow. Every onballer dishes out those to a tagger.

But Judd is calculating. Bides his time, sees an opportunity and takes it. Almost like a serial killer or pedophile hunting out prey.

The 'man' has issues.

He is definitely odd.
 
Yes. There's no doubt Judd is in deep shit..and rightfully so. Still, if Hunt got off you never know.

It was bad but it wasn't as bad as wellinghams.
 
Remember who it is. .he'll get off.

Was a pretty low act
He's stuffed, has loading and continues to prove his is a dirty player. Should never of won his second brownlow - not because he isn't a good pl;ayer but should've been rubbed out for elbowing Pavlich.

This was not the act of someone being reckless it was calculated and he knew what the result would be. SHould get at least 4 weeks.
 
Will probably go for 1-2 weeks but I think it is more likely that he was attempting to stop Adams from getting a handball off rather then "deliberately dislocating his shoulder". Perhaps:
- Judd grabbed his arm trying to prevent the handball in an attempt to get a 'holding the ball' decision
- Adams tried to move his hand to the ball to make 'an attempt'
- Judd applied too much pressure the other way to counter Adams attempt
- Reckless not intentional

I'm not saying this is definitely what happened, for all I know he could have felt frustrated and wanted to hurt him, but at least I've considered both alternatives. Like I said, I find this scenario much more believable than Judd "deliberately" injuring another player. Wellingham broke someone's jaw, Hunt stomped on someone's hand, Shuey elbowed someone in the groin...

Funny joke mate...he was pulling his arm back Chinese massage style...Dog act targeting a opponents injured shoulder. Pretty obvious

Personally I reckon if they find him guilty of doing what he did then they really should give him months out of the game.

Typical of the AFL though, they'll come up with some bizarre finding to justify what the publicity department is telling them.
 
Why a player of Judd's quality feels the need to engage in dirty crap like this is beyond me. It's weird that in 99% of games he'll do nothing [in terms of lashing out at an opponent], yet every once in a while he'll have a complete brainfart and get himself in trouble. Honestly, what the hell is going though his mind when he does stuff like this? You'd never see Ablett or Watson do what Judd did.
