There are certainly enogh good numbers available, but I like the high number.

If it were me personally, I would prefer to stay in the same number my whole career.

Jurrah can make 48 his own. We talk about #3 being Gazzas number, #2 being Robbie Flower, and of course #31 Barassi.

Imagine kids in 40 years time being handed the #48 and it meaning something special.

yehas i love that he's made 48 his. really burst onto the scene with it and its identifiable to him. not many players do that with the high numbers. personally i like it on him. it suits. but we don't really want a whole team running around in late 30s and 40s do we...

and as far as numbers go i reckon number 1 is the worst one. it always looks so lonely. haha. but seriously i don't really like the look of the one stripe down the back. just personal preference. i'd take 48 over 1 everytime

As I've said before, if it were me I'd want to stay with the number I started in. I know that there has been some talk of him wanting to get the number both he and his father played in back home (can't remember what number though), so that could be an option as well. I guess we'll find out sooner or later.

What about the poor bastards who rushed out to get a Wonaeamirri 39 last year only to be stooged?

SAVE THE 48. I'd rather see him posing with the North Balwyn tram than the South Melbourne.

Jurrah to keep the 48.

I would like to see Neville the Jet in No 1. Or if we can pick up Lewis at Pick 11 give him the No 1. He will be gone at either the Eagles at 7 or Bummers 10 i would think.

Majak Daw to get the 44.

Scully 31.

Trengove would be great in the No 1 also. Especially if he is the No 1 pick. He can make the number his own.

5 and 9 to key postion forwards I would imagine.

I think Butcher will slip to us. Give him 59 until he can kick the ball through the sticks!

Keep the 48 for mine. It already has such a rich history. Who can forget the power that was energised to purchase that jumper to send to Yuendumu.

change to number 1 for me. High number like 48 gives the image of a unproven young player (which he is i might add) but you dont want that number your whole career.

As for the jumper purchased and sent to Yuendumu, if Jurrah has a long and colorful career in number 1 that #48 jersey will become all the more special and valuable as it will signify the long jersey he took to get to the AFL and the time he came on the scene from no where!

Offer Luke Ball either the #1 or #31 jumper (two of the great numbers in the game and at our club) if he signs. In the grand scheme of things it's only a small detail but it's the little things that make the big things happen.

I think Liam would look good in the #5 jumper.

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.
