Playing for casey this week...

Has been ill!

Thanks PJ. Realising how strange Melbourne (the city, not the club) must be for a lad from the outback, I was worried he'd gone back home.

But all's well eh!

    Yeah, I hope he gets a senior game soon. I can't wait to see how he goes.

    Same here, I know he's still developing but I'd love it if they got him into the side even if it was only for round 22, just so he can get a taste of it.

    Well in related news, i just saw this article earlier today.

    But Norman, who comes from a tiny community near Yuendumu in central Australia, told police he did not intend to kill his partner.

    "I was going to stab her a little bit, only once,'' he said.

    An autopsy found the 10cm stab wound had "passed through her right lung'' and she had a blood alcohol reading of 0.266 per cent.

    Justice Thomas said she accepted the fully initiated Aboriginal man, from the Walpiri tribe, had the knife in his hand because he was going to use it to cut up some meat.

    Is this why Jurrah returned home last year? The article came out today but i can't actually find the date of the incident.

    Yuendumu is a tiny town so surely he knows the victim and the offender.

    I doubt it. Yes Yuendumu is pretty small in population, but there is a lot of criminal stuff that goes on there anyway. My old man goes there every year with the school (he's a teacher) for a week for our Central Australia Trip and he reckons that this kind of stuff happens every now and then and that most ppl just mind their own business, its quite a different culture up there and that's an understatement.

    Does anyone think Liam will get a game at AFL level this year? I haven't seen one bit of footage of him playing and want to see what hes like.

    I think so. But later on in the season IMO, unless injuries take their toll even further. Part of List Management devices.

    A chance late in the season. It's a shame he got injured/illness because that's probably put him back a few weeks for any likely appearance in the seniors.

    As it stands he is still very raw but there is plenty to like. A genuine natural talent.

    I wouldn't bet on him playing seniors this season. He still has alot of work to do. But would love to see him bouncing around the forwardline at least once this year. Hope he can earn it.

    Come on guys there is no way Liam Jurrah is going to play senior football this year.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
