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!

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
