I think he'll be the one.

He's already averaging 2 goals a game, effortlessly, in a team where the delivery is hopeless if not rare. That's without a preseason, and being thrown into a whole new world.

I can't see him having a lean patch, maybe a bad game here and there, but I don't see how he can be beaten on the lead, in the air and on the deck, he's a nightmare.

I think he'll be targeted with the rough stuff as he starts to make more of an impact, but he has a bit of mongrel in him and I reckon he'll thrive on it.

I think he'll be a superstar, Jackovich and Davey mixed together.

That's if he gets a fair run from the injury gods. Touch wood.

[censored].... ha!

Sorry, had to be done.

But in all seriousness, I believe Jurrah could be anything. The only worry that I have is about whether or not he can cope with the pressures that come with being an AFL player.

You can tell by the smile on his face that he loves playing in the AFL.

There is only one thing standing between him and super-stardom and that's Melbourne being [censored]. Imagine what he's going to be like when we consistently get more than 5 inside 50's a game!

At the rate that he's playing, even if he never ever improves, he'll be a very good player.

Him and Watts up forward is going to be magic. Add Aussie and it's party time :D

we are on the verge of football orgasm !!

our defenders are going to get rather miffed when the ball seems to hardly visit there 50....be such a shame !! :lol:

He is a freak of nature. Why do pre-seasons when you have the talent like LJ? I hope DB doesn't work him too hard over the pre season, I just want to see him play his natural game, without the regimes and the structures of modern football. I want to see him bring his natural Yuenmendu game to the MCG.

The Jurrahcane has only reached a Category 2....prepare to batten down the hatches....

I don't know about you lot, but I'm so worried he will disappoint that I don't want to jinx him.

At this stage I'll say that of the players we've seen debut in the last 10-15 years, only Farmer and Davey got the fans to fever pitch like this. (Jacko debuted earlier, I think)

Liam's skills are simply stunning, and unlike so many kids who look a million bucks in the youtube videos, his skills seem to work even better in the big league than they do in the lesser ones... Given the framework he's working within, there are cearly less things likely to hold him back than the usual mortal. However, he's still not even 21 yet. A LOT of things still have to happen. He has to play 22 rounds, finals, he has to cope with the best or second-best defender, he has to cope with a tag and with a bit of tall-poppy syndrome... I noticed last week he was getting VERY vocal.

I don't mean to sound pessimistic. I have a lot of confidence in him. But I'm just keeping a lid on it for now.

I have been replaced!!!!!

Jaded!

How could you??????

I'm depressed :(

I'm sorry, but I think we've jinxed our man so I'm trying to keep a lid on it.

Besides, many football orgasms have been had over Brocky, so no need to feel depressed.

"Brocky from the centre to Juuuuurrrraaaahh" :wub::wub:

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.
