Since joining the Dons from Peterborough United in January 2007, Jude has become a hugely-valuable member of the first team squad and a massive favourite with Dons supporters.

Tall and deceptively quick, Jude is comfortable in a number of positions including right-back, centre-half and right-midfield. Having even played as a lone centre forward last season, Jude has played just about every outfield position for the Dons - a job he has always been happy to do for the good of the team.

He is however, best known for a formidable long throw that few, if any, in the Football League can match.

Jude started his career as a trainee with Luton Town, where he made is Football League debut, before a series of moves including Stevenage Borough, Oxford United and Lincoln City took him to London Road.

Jude hails from Enfield in Hertfordshire and as well as being one of the biggest characters in the dressing room, is a big asset to the Dons with his versatility and athleticism.

Having signed a contract extension until June 2011, the distinctive sound of his name billowing round the Cowshed is one Dons fans should get used to hearing.
