Jurrah and Sylvia

Featured Replies

 

YYYEEEESSSS!!!!

Some genuine marking ability and excitment.

Gee I'd like to see Jurrah, Sylvia and Bail all come into the forward line this week but happy to see Jurrah back!!

Like the comment from Bailey "Bailey said having Jurrah, Sylvia and Jack Watts all in the same side for the first time would make for a vastly improved Melbourne forward line.

“He [Watts] is a really important part of our forward line. Unfortunately this year Liam Jurrah hasn’t played with Jack Watts, he hasn’t played with Colin Sylvia in too many games either. That’s just because of injuries during the year,” he said.

“He does provide some excitement and it will be good to see those three blokes working well together in the forward line.

NOTE to the author Luke Holmesby - Casey actually beat Werribee!

“Colin and LJ will certainly be under consideration. They’ve probably played enough football over the last couple of weeks to ensure that their bodies are ready to play,” Bailey told afl.com.au.

I think this will answer any questions.

Someone as good as Jurrah wont learn anything at Casey and the only reason he would play there is to regain match fitness after injury

I was surprised a class player like Morton was omitted last week for the same reason

Sylvia is in our best 22 IMO

The sooner we get Bail back into the seniors the better

IMO if you havent played senior football in your first 2 seasons at a club your basically a list clogger (injury aside)

The next 2 players to step up will be Blease and Tapscott and i wouldnt be suprised they get a senior game before the seasons end


"last week's loss to Werribee"? Didn't we win that one?

yep...won the firsts...lost the seconds!!

LJ and Sylvia back in? Anyone got a tissue.............make that a mop.

Are you a depressed janitor by any chance?

I think Cale will learn from this, not so much from playing in the VFL, but from not playing in the AFL.

If that makes sense.

Not every player is dropped to the VFL to find form or to learn something. Sometimes it's because they aren't pulling their weight and the team is better off without them. This is a very straightforward kick up the backside for Cale to tell him he needs to work harder and his spot in the senior side is not guaranteed.

Great minds...

Well, well, well...Round 15 v Essendon for Jurrah's return....who would have thought.... :rolleyes:

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
