Judd as captain
What do Carlton supporters think?
I personally would have loved to have seen Nick Stevens get the captaincy and don't think it is really fair that Judd got it, the experience is going to be great and having the younger recruits look up to and have to listen to somebody like Judd, but I think the opportunity should have been offered to players that have been around the club for a while now.

i agree with you there marissa, stevens should have been made captain ahead of Judd...i felt so sorry for stevens and even though i like Judd i was annoyed that he got captaincy as he didn't really know much about carlton...but oh well we can't change things

Judd was the best option, as Nick Stevens is a bad option. Watch Nick Sttevens play and note two things he doesn't go get te ball he recieves and second he wastes his possesions a lot. Somone like Marc Murphy would be a good future captain, just not yet

I personally think in our time of rebuilding an accomplished player like judd is the prime for captain. nick is a great player but judd has that same air of competence and presence on the field just like carey back in his glory years.

marissa, marissa, being the captain is not the be all and end all of football. nick stevens has enough weight on his shoulders trying to nurse himself back after not playing football for twelve months. judd has captained a premiership side before and he will do it again. he cost alot to get at the club, lets give him the weights to carry in return. (there's lots of pressure on him. remember)

I think Nick Stevens is a bit stiff, getting pipped at the post 2 years straight, but all the same with a young side Judd would have been our spiritual leader even if Stevens was named. Our young midfield can learn so much from our young captain, may they grow together, our window opens 2010- 20015, bring it on

I feel Stevens too, but i think the whole team as a whole will just lift when Judd is on the field, particularly the younger mids.
I think after a whole year of getting to know the new game plan we can really start to make inroads next season, if all goes well I cant see why we cant be a serious finals threat next year.
Cant wait.

guidence from him he has had a very good career but haven said that only time will tell
if it is good or not ?
