I agree with your analysis, I wouldn't swap Judd for Ablett or anyone else in the league for that matter. Ablett is star, but when you play the way he does, ie. gather, handball, stop, handball receive, stop, handball back the way he came, run on, handball receive, kick; then you shouldn't have your quality measured by stats. So much of what he does is 3 touches for every play, it's effective yes but a 40 touch game of Ablett is the equivelent of a 26 game for Judd.


I had to double check this post to make sure I didn't wake up the other night and "sleep-post" because those are my thoughts exactly.

Ablett is an outstanding footballer, but he does have so many 3 or 4 possession plays where the ball ends up back where it started anyway! Judd can break a game open in 2 minutes even though he only pick up a couple of touches.

I know it sounds biased... but if I was picking a dream team, I would go with Ablett. If I was picking a premiership team, its Judd 100%.

judd, every day of the week.

ablett would not be able to play the same game the judd does if he didnt have the support of the players around him like he does at geelong.
