If he was given his choice of any number i would bet he would choose 15

Would like him to stay 48 personally

I think it was Rudeboy who told us that Liam would love to wear #15. I seem to recall its the number that both he and his father wore when playing for Yuendumu Magpies..

    Stick with 48 for another year. Would like to see him take on the 23 though from Junior.

    Majak Daw? Give him no. 51. Could make it his own like Shuan Rehn did with the 52. Ha Ha!

    hope he stays 48, it suits him. I really don't know why people care about low numbers so much.

    Keep him in No 48. We won a premiership in '48. Might be a good omen.

    I want Liam to keep number 48 for his entire career. It suits him.

    It is a unique number for a unique player.

    By the end of his career he will be the most famous number 48 of all time in AFL/VFL history.

    He will make that number famous.

    I spoke with him at the Demon Ball about this. I told him I wanted to put his number on my sons jumper but would be filthy if he changed it. He said he has been offered a lower number but his locker is empty and wants to create his own history in that number. It is number 48 to stay. BTW great bloke - more than happy to talk to us.

    I'm superstitious, don't change it. Remember what happened when the last Wiz changed from 33 to 8?

    And Greg Blewett was my favourite player and is still my favourite player of all time. He had the most stylish cover drive I've ever witnessed and he pulled the ball better than Ponting. When he was on, he was brilliant to watch. He basically made me follow the Redbacks...that and I was born in Adelaide. Proud Victorian in the winter months and South Australian in the summer.:P

    He should, and will, make 48 his own.

    And Blewett was quality!

    Good news. Stick with 48, LJ!

    No.48 is fine by me too. He can make it his own.

    It won't bother me in the slightest if he gets another. I just want to watch him take those one handers and him kick those goals over his head.

    Did anyone see him pinpoint his kick to Miller for the first goal of the game? Genius.

    loved it, especially because I had 5 on miller at 16-1 to kick the first goal

    I still have no 48 on my jumper from when Darren Cuthburtson was strutting his stuff, Jurrah is a worthy heir to his throne.

    Good to see someone else on the Majak Daw bandwagon. I've seen him a lot this season and he kept improving every week.

    Along with Jurrah he could be another cult hero down at the Dees.

    If he is keen to keep it, fine.

    And Blewett was rubbish and you all know it.

    Jurrah's had a break out year for the MFC, and has clearly earnt a number change.

    should he change? what to?

    i hope he dosen't, he could be the best no. 48 the AFL has ever seen.

    In 15 years time, I hope we will be talking about up and coming potential stars and saying... I think we should give them number 48!

    A good thread for my first post. ;) I agree with most that Jurrah should keep the number 48 and make it his own, though I still wouldn't mind if he changed to a lower number either. I'd choose number 9. Just as long as he doesn't change it soon after I get 48 on my new jumper next year. :lol:

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
