How is once three years ago, "all the time"????
You obviously don't watch him play, or you would know he is a perfect example of a great leader.

Err.. no.
Enright has had an outstanding year. Mackie is close to downhill skier territory.
When was the last time Enright was beaten at Half Back???
He also racks up possessions like he's a midfielder & never misses a target.

Another chance for Mike Sheahan to whack off in public over his favourite players.
Rubbish, this Judd contested possession thing is just a nerds view on stats in footy. He doesn't chase, he gets samshed for 3 out of 4 quarters each week, his kicking is borderline awful, and the media keep pumping him up. His season was average at best and below the top 5 midfielders of just about every club.
No Pavlich?
No one can tell me Murphy had a better season than Pavlich.
Pavlich averaged 1 more possession a game and 2 more goals a game than him, what a ****ing joke, the Herald Sun should get their ****ing head out of their arse and start paying attention to the 'National' competition.

Pavlich hasn't been as dominating as previous years, and lets be honest - he was gifted the 2002 AA FB position, so he shouldn't get gifted another one.
Deserves to sit out this year in my honest opinion.
OK champ which 5 midfielders at Collingwood are better than Judd this year? Remember this isn't Bay 13 buddy.
Judd has done so much this year it isn't even funny. Next year he should be even better because he'll be able to have a decent pre-season as well.

A Vote for Clive is a Vote for Justice
He's a good player, but has he been better then Corey. No
Pavlich missing out is another Joke, been the best CHF in the game this year.
Judd is a token selection as well
His key numbers are up from last year? More possessions, more goals.
It's not about being 'gifted' a slot, he got third on the coaches association votes, behind Ablett and Franklin. And 8th on overall player rankings, all numbers and performances indicate he is top 10 in the league for people who actually watch Fremantle games.
Well acoording to the afl stats he is equal 6th, in front of people like Kirk and Foley.
Stevens, Murphy, etc. Besides corey is the support for the geelong team, the sheparder and blocker
Maybe you need to actually 'watch' Geelong games more, most of our supporters rate him up there with ablett and bartel in terms of influence, perhaps not footballing ability, but definately work ethic and team play. Note 5th in tackles, 6th in contested possesions is not a soft player, and add that to 1st in total possesions. And whilst stats don't tell the true story of some players, stats don't tell what Corey does when he doesn't have the ball too.

A great leader shanks shots at goal at crucial stages of games?
Case in point - Geelong vs St.Kilda last year. St.Kilda were playing well just before half time, Riewoldt marks 20m out straight in front, needs a goal to level the scores, but hits the post instead. On the resulting kick out Geelong rush the ball down and score a goal at the other end. Instead of going into half-time level and with all the momentum, the Saints go into half-time 11 points down and with all the wind sucked out of their sails. Yup, great captain's effort that.

Pretty sure that happened in 2006 - when Riewoldt was not even Captain.
But even supposing it did happen last year when Nick was co-captain - so every player that has ever missed a shot on goal is a bad leader, are they?
And how about we talk about this year?
I notice you don't want to discuss the 8 or so games this season when he has kicked the goals at the crucial points to lift the team and carry it to victory - no, you only want to talk about a shot he missed more than a year - possibly two years - ago.
You can't just fixate on the bad, you know.
Well, you can, but you look like a muppet with an agenda.
Judd gets my vote as AA skipper this year. To do what he's done at 80% fitness is testimony to his greatness. Reckon he's way over the odds at $5 for a brownlow place this year and I'm nearly as confident about a collect as I was when he bolted in in 2004 at the same odds for the win...
Reckon you've made the right choice about picking him as captain over Stevens at the start of the year?

IMO:
Daniel Motlop -> FP (Harvey)
Harvey -> Midfield or Bench (Ling or Corey out)
Pavlich -> bench (Petrie out)
EDIT: Whoever suggested Kane Cornes should be in... NO NO NO. IMO as a bias Port supporter, Kornes is overrated with many of his disposals "junk" disposals in the backlines or from 1-2's. He rarely hurts the other teams.

Typical Collingwood supporters having a cry
Which players do you think should have gotten in? I'd say the only one with a chance was Medders and Didak. Both were pretty unlucky not to have been chosen.
Sounds like you answered your own question there tossa...
EDIT: sorry just saw that someone already pointed that out....nothing to see here Trossa, move on....
