Yeh my mates and i decided on his first game LJ was the name we would yell out when the ball goes near him.. LL cool J is an alternative to it. We yelled LJ very loud at the Gabba this year..

Dont dislike the cougar but yeah LJ is my choice , sweet and simple..

Lets go with both they are both beauties. I like the Cougar alot. When ever he gets near the ball hes gonna do something good with it. He is a very promising long term prospect. If he plays one bad game and some people start attacking him. I`ll attack you.

That was a great interview there. Gee Davey has to be my favourite player now. Such a legend. And Jurrah, well his English is actually great, he's just obviously quite reticent when speaking to the media and that, but that will come. He's quietly spoken generally, but I remember Flash's first few interviews about 5 years ago, he was quietly spoken and nervous too. And now he's our best player! Jurrah, what a star. Maybe if we miss out on Butcher it won't matter too much with the Jurracaine in the Red and Blue!

He'll always be LJ to me, or even LL Cool J (Ladies Love Cool Jurrah) for all the hip hop fans. LL rocks the bells... ;)

The cougar just reminds me way too much of older ladies going out to cheesy clubs trying to snap up younger men.

LJ deserves better.

Vanlo has just ruined the Cougar nickname.

Back to LJ for me; short, simple, elegant.

His great story is that of being an Australian Indigenous warrior.

His tribal peoples I believe gave him the nickname Jooka

I think if we want to do them Honour, we should respectfully call him by the name they gave him.

Jurrahcane for me:

Here comes the story of the Jurrahcane

The man that came to Melbourne to play the game

There is nothing that he couldn't do

Put him in the forward line you'll see that he will be

The champion of the world

Jack Grimes already has about 4 nicknames as far as I'm concerned.

I don't see how it's such a big deal - indeed the range of nicknames he has already simply underlines to me how is he loved by the footy world.

Anyone notice the crowd whenever he was near the ball on Sunday? They went mental!

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    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,
