Chris Judd is an absolute certainty in my books to go back to back in this regard.
Currently 5-1, get on board now. 4 rounds in and he could already have 9 votes.
I'm going big on this.

Don't know about 9 votes, but he's probably got 6 and Bruce who probably would have had 9 votes is out for an extended period.

Seeing how much the umpires love him, it wouldn't surprise me if he's already got 15!!! :D

Midfielders are always favoured by the umps.
Anyway I think it's a safe bet :)

I'm not having a go but just curious how you think its a safe bet
Theres still 18 rounds to go and as the saying goes, a week is a long time in football.
But I'm not a fan of futures betting so maybe it is safe compared to alot of other futures i see ppl taking
Good luck with it anyway :)

Well he surely means barring injury or suspension.
Generally though u back a player in so early is frought(is that how you spell it?)with danger,because sure enough he'll break his leg in the very next round but I agree wholeheartedly that YES Juddy will be very very close if he doesnt miss any games (at least not many) but I also reckon if Andrew Mcloed misses no games THIS year ,lookout

5's is way under for juddy
18 rounds to go
Injurys etc
I wouldnt back him with your money
Riewoldt was second favourite when betting opened
We all know what happened there
West Coast are playing Brisbane this week so theyll probably belt him he'll break something and sit in the stands doin a riewoldt and his odds will be 50's come tuesday
But seriously Id be conservative
i backed Gary ablett at 61,he hasnt done much and is now 126
Cheers

I don't think I've seen West Coast play a game against Brisbane where Judd hasn't been the best on the ground or close to it.

Last year, I think there were about 10 different favourites throughout Brownlow betting, and I don't think Judd was one of them. A new player was favourite every couple of weeks or so and then down they'd go with an injury or suspension. So going on past experience, I would normally say that 5-1 is way unders too. But with Judd, I don't know. If you knew he was going to play 22 rounds, I'd say 2-1 would probably be good odds.
Hey Rabbitz, I remember quite a few on here warned you about your Gary Ablett bet, but as you said, it was only $5. :)

Thats right ,so you reckon Kitch is gonna put that much on Juddy, I reckon he might.Last year the brownlow was seemingly between Revolt and Tredray
I wonder what all those punters have done with their losing tickets

I tipped Brent Harvey in the pre season and I could have procured 150-1 but didn't have a bet.
I now see he's into 60-1.
More than a flukers hope
