As I was watching the Geelong, Melbourne game last weekend one of the commenters labelled Liam Jurrah the most exciting talent in the AFL (Cant remember who) This got me thinking about who else would be in that category. Reading between the lines I figured they ment new talent or someone from the last couple of drafts. When I say exciting talent I donโ€™t mean who is going to be the best player but more who is the most gifted. The only other player I could come up with was C Rioli.

Both are extremely gifted players with different attributes. Rioli is great in close, winning his own ball and applying pressure (eg the grand final) while Jurrah seems a more outside player with beautiful disposal, a great leap and mark.

If they were both on offer at this years draft who would you take? Looking at it from purely a talent side of things I would have to choose Jurrah. The X factor with him is just massive. He could be absolutely anything if his desire can match his ability.

    Jeff Farmer was like that on his day. '98 & 2000 Seasons some of those games he played were insane. The Indigenous Boys are like that though. The X Factor.

    And Liam Jurrah is going to be the Best of them all.

    Believe me, the best is yet to come.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

      ๏ปฟAย steamyย Springfieldย evening set the stage for a blockbusterย top-fourย clash between two AFLW heavyweights.ย Brisbane, the bookiesโ€™ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing inโ€”the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season.ย It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6โ€“4 edge. Butย whileย the Lionsย broughtย theย chaos andย roared loudest, the Demonsย arenโ€™t doneย yet.
