Well Done Jurracane/LJ/Cougar.......

I'm (pleasantly) pretty surprised it came so fast! I was hoping he'd get one by the end of the season but this is great! I hope it does him a world of confidence on and off the field.

I read in the paper that he was talking to the media after the game on the weekend, (although very brief answers) did anyone hear it?

Yeah check the link above. Brief answers and very quietly spoken, obviously shy/nervous etc. but his English is actually a lot better than what has been said. His confidence will come. Hopefully he gets some help this week because he's going to have a lot of interviews.

I remember an artical a few weeks back that listed the No of rising star nominees that are still playing for each club, from memory we where equal first, now we have the most, our future is bright.

He also provides goal assists. Of which he had 4 against Port Adelaide. You would be hard pressed to get that output from Robbo!

Congrats Warlpiri Wizard (LJ, Cougar, Jurrahcane...lol)

Jarrah has got the longest arms since inspector gadget

His digits (fingers) are remarkably long. I love the way he put s the mits out when taking a mark. It's vice like.

[Deano74 156]

Its official from Liam in his news conference its now the "Walpiri Wizard"

forget the other nick names.

What a year hes had so far, thoughly deserved.

He's definately going to make more people go to the footy, hes the talk of the work lunch room among opposition supporters and a favourite with my family and nephew.
