Re: Why on earth would Judd consider Carlton?
I can see Judd and Carlton as a good fit somehow. They will be on the up (eventually) and he seems to be the sort of character that suits the traditions of the club (forget the recent stuff - I'm talking the Craig Bradley, Stephen Kernahan type).
It could be a good win/win. he would create instant excitement, sponsorship and turnstile dollars for Carlton. People will come just to see him play.
WCE are a good teaching club and, at this point in their histories, relative to Carlton, will probably do better with the swag of early picks that they'll trade him for.
In their current state, without the nucleus of champions, Carlton aren't able to give Gibb's etc what they need in terms of role models. Great players make others around them greater and Judd is one of those.
Also with his bullet head and square jaw - he'd look good in a Carlton jumper.
I'm a West Aussie without any particular leanings club wise (I just love good footy). I reckon Judd is going to be the greatest ever and the Victorian public deserves to see more of him.
