Maybe Robbo should take a glance at the 1st poss/clearances columns. Judd was off the ground a fair bit with a broken nose, but he still pantsed every other player on the ground in these vital stats.

Juddy was off the ground all told 28 minutes.

I don't think they were a 6-8 goal better team but I would like to know how many of our goals came from marks inside 50 compared to the Saints.

I'm sure Matty Knights totally agrees with Robbo and the Essendon* supporters that don't rate Judd. Come 2 weeks time he won't put a tag on him .......... NOT

And now he is having another go at Judd regarding his Visy deal. Becuase, as we all remember, only Carlton cheats... Bloody journalists!

I would like to thank Collingwood for helping me keep faith in my old man. He always told me that 'People are thick'.

He knows no details of how much Juddy gets just that it must be lot, cause he didn't choose Collingwood.
He also checked Visy's website and Juddy is not on it = Researched conclusion Juddy doesn't deserve the money (whatever the money actually is)
The AFL just okayed it because they love Carlton so much Robbo , he even mentioned his inspiration and puppeteer Eddie in the article.

No doubt Robbo has been licking his wounds after the Wallace sacking stuff up and is still a bit shy about actually being a reporter, who actually does research.

Of course, Robbo was all over that one .

I commented on the article yesterday morning, noting the above. Surprise, surprise, didn't get published...

Probably just hears it around the cheer squad each week.

Robbo's real beef is with the whole PR/"Ambassador" industry. It's the HUN's new barrow to push now that unemployment is back up. I agree that its money for old rope, but its got nothing to do with the salary cap.

Juddy would've got the same coin from Wizard and/or Emirates at Collingwood. Why should he be denied the chance to trade on his own image?

It was Mark Austin, whom also is responsible for busting Armfield's nose via a shit handball. Hampson also busted his nose after a bad kick from Judd. I tie that down to Austin's initial bump and it's lingering affects.

I broke my nose the week before Judd's incident and have been keeping tabs since. FU Austin.

If Juddy played for Essendon*; Robbo would be full of praise for the man...............sour grapes.

EVERY club has players on these deals.

Let's not forget, Robbo (I know you're reading), St Kilda missing out on trades because they had trouble stumping up wealthy benefactors who 'sponsored' players.

But of course, why go to the effort of conducting a shred of research when you can sit around, throw out the words 'Carlton' and 'Judd' and get a hit from the masses.

And then then the pathetic whining on SEN saying 'Well... jeez boys... it just concerns me' and 'I'm not sure what I'm saying, but it concerns me' and 'No, I'm not calling Carlton cheats... but it CONCERNS me'.

You're a lazy sod who is capable of better Robbo. Well, barely, anyway.

Were you concerned when James Hird was working at JB Were on about $500,000 and was barely seen at his desk around 1/2 day per week.

Were you concerned when Hird and Lloyd got about $200,000 for Hird.com and Lloyd.com.

Were you concerned when Carlton was the worst team in the AFL getting flogged week after week in the years 2005 through to 2007.

Kevin Bartlett spent the whole first hour of his program with Greg Denham talking about the Judd/Visy deal. Bartlett was saying that Judds image is enough and he shouldnt have to do alot of other work. It turned into a Carlton bashing hour with talk back callers ringing through with the usual stuff-Carlton have always cheated and will always be cheats etc.
I wish they would turn their attention to Richmond and their "investment opportunities" rorting. There is currently 3 players taking legal action against Casey and Ben Holland lodged a writ in the courts against Richmond and Casey last year only to have it settled out of court and somehow the afl approved of it and it was quietly swept under the carpet. It is a joke.
But as we all know- only Carlton cheat.

Suck it up opposition fans.
