2010 Player Review - # 24 Liam Jurrah

Missed the first half of the season with a shoulder injury. Took a couple of weeks to turn it on but had a real impact on several games with his goal scoring and defensive pressure. His confidence grew as the weeks wore on - Luke Holmesby melbournefc

Let's just hope we can get 22 games out LJ next year.

If he does I reckon we make finals.

We saw how dangerous he was in the last couple of weeks when he got some match fitness under his legs.

 

Could be anything- however needs to have a huge pre season

Just going to watch him in action is worth your membership price.


41 goals in his first 17 games!! Incredible...

I think the only opponent that can possibly beat him is his own confidence and injuries. He is already the most exciting player to watch I've seen at Melbourne, and could well be the difference as to whether we play finals or not.

Absolute freakzoid. And only a mere 17 games to hos name!!!

I don't want him to bulk up too much. He's naturally thin and should be kept that way due to his style of freakish play. Fitness is all.

 

Agree with all of the above mentioned. He alone is worth going along to watch to each and every game. Funnily enough, these type of players fit the bill for a term arguably rarely used in association with the mfc of recent times. It need not be mentioned again.

Stay fit LJ and you will shine brighter.

I want to have his babies.

Make sure they are boys.

"He shall appear on earth and his name shalt be liam". This is some bible verse and I have given the basic tranlation from ye olde english. Still kinda appropriate huh?!

"He will bear the mark of the beast" meaning he will be a great demon

Don't you mean you would like Mrs Rojik of the Arctic to have his babies?

Hell no! I'm not sharing.

LJ is one of those rare players who is able to 'do the impossible' week after week after week. If he can get fully match fit, stay injury free, and get a couple of others around him (eg. Petterd and a reasonable goal square forward)to take some of the attention, he could become a household name (and I'm not just talking about Demonland Households!).

DOF...he ALREADY is a household name !!

if you were to poll all of footy land and ask but one question.

If you could poach just one player from any team...who would that be?

tell you now... 97% would say Liam Jurrah , Melbourne... that other 3% just dont know footy !! LOL

OK 'bub, it's the off-season, so I will concede you that one, and revise my assessment to "could become a household name across all football codes in Australia" ;) .

to quote Jack Trengove 'he's the biggest freak I've ever seen'

That comment was made in pre-season last year wasn't it? If he was already a freak to JT then, what does he think now? What is the next ascent from being a freak?

Super freak?

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
