Since being selected at No. 1 in the pre-season draft in December, Jurrah has been taking Engligh lessons.

It's a shame you didn't, Mark Stevens! :D

What a fantastic story this is, and a lot of credit must be given to Jurrah and the club for managing to fast track the development of someone who has come from so far back.

If he can continue to stay fit both physically and emotionally, and settle in well at the club, there is no doubt he will be a very very special player who will bring in the crowds and help us win games.

Good luck to him!

Read the Adelaide Advertiser for the first time in a month or two this morning to see Liam Jurrah staring back at me on some Melbourne beach. Fair chuffed I have to say. One of the few times one doesn't regret picking up that piece of shyte excuse for a 'paper and spending a couple of minutes reading it. Interesting to hear that he is still in the process of learning English, and was playing or training barefoot not a year ago. Talk about raw talent! Can't wait!

Only seen a few clips of him at work but looks good. Never seen so much hipe on this site about a player sice JW, and id say more people are excited about this bloke. Goodluck, and dont get injured (touch wood).

People are excited because there is a very unique story behind a player that also has great potential. Really looking forward to seeing him in the bigtime. The story is only beginning....

Yeah, I think a few of the above posts have touched on it. There is a lot of hype among Melbourne fans, similar to that which there was about Watts, even though Watts is far more well-known. It's because there is a number-one pick every year. A story like Liam Jurrah is once-a-decade.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
