monoccular 17,760 Posted March 13, 2012 Posted March 13, 2012 Does he actually need to have DumbItriou to say he can train or play? He hasn't been found guilty of anything - do we still have a presumption of innocence in Australia? I know Bob Brown would like that to be removed should you be a media owner, but he hasn't managed to worm that one through his Parliament, yet.

I know Bob Brown would like that to be removed should you be a media owner, but he hasn't managed to worm that one through his Parliament, yet. I think he does. If a player brings the game into disrepute etc etc............................ Not sure what beats 2 serious charges of crimes of violence (alleged). Murder? Best case for me is he stands down ( but trains) til the issue is resolved. IMO Jurrrah has been handled very kindly/gently. Hope he makes it.
WhateverItTakes 17 Posted March 13, 2012 Posted March 13, 2012 Looks great! Are they selling them? They are selling one of each player's number for $200 on the site. Not many left now, though. Wish I could afford one. Another set of them (signed) are up for auction.
fredblackham 19 Posted March 13, 2012 Posted March 13, 2012 Great to see jurrah picking up davey 7:30 this morning to go to training. Reading his book, getting up and going to training was one of jurrahs main challenges in the early days, I would like to believe jurrahs comments and attitude to training and playing is an indication that he does not believe the impending court case will stop his afl career. It would hard to be motivated to train if you thought in a few months time you would be prohibited from playing.

hardtack 11,107 Posted March 25, 2012 Posted March 25, 2012 Nice to see the following tagged onto the end of the article about the possibility of a Jim Stynes series between Melbourne and Dublin. http://www.smh.com.a...0324-1vrbj.html Meanwhile, embattled forward Liam Jurrah has resumed training with the senior group as part of his belated pre-season training program. Jurrah's surgically repaired wrist is also on the mend but no date has been set for his return. He is likely to need a month in the VFL before he would be considered for a senior berth. ''I spoke to [director of sports performance] Neil Craig today and he said he [Jurrah] is going really well, has settled down and is trying to get right,'' McLardy said. ''He said he [Jurrah] was training with the main group.''
In Neeld We Trust 1 Posted March 25, 2012 Posted March 25, 2012 Don't write off Liam, heard some positive stuff.
RalphiusMaximus 6,112 Posted March 25, 2012 Posted March 25, 2012 Apparently he's just had the last pin removed from his wrist and is feeling much better about things as a result. Is now with the rehab group rather than running laps on his own. Sounds like a positive step.
PaulRB 6,436 Posted March 25, 2012 Posted March 25, 2012 Cue the music for a training montage. "... Getting stronger..."
Samsara 65 Posted March 25, 2012 Posted March 25, 2012 Good to hear, really hope to see him back mid-season; giving him time to deal with court and recover from his injuries. He is a massively important cog in the team, and he will be missed in opening part of season.

savoydee 6 Posted March 26, 2012 Posted March 26, 2012 Great to have LJ back in the full rehab fold. Bruce has been outstnding in his support to him and I agree with JCB, that, he owes to himself,family and friends to really try to gain something special out of this year by playing at his best.
