FAREWELL LIAM JURRAH

[DemonDave 1,089]

Just mentioned on SEN, with more to follow, that Jurrah has quit the club. If this is the case a sad day for the club. All the best Liam, thanks for the great couple of years!

I was going to right "disrespectful", but I will wait a short while to have a think about the events.

I believe he wants to play in Adelaide or not at all.

[DemonDave 1,089]

And here's the story from the Age, wants to play for a SA club:

Jurrah quits Demons

Be even worse to see him playing against us!

[Deers 202]

He wants to continue playing footy in Adelaide.

The season's over but the torture continues unabated.

Good luck to Liam all the same.

[The Chazz 4,077]

Do a trade with Boak, just do it. Don't fcuk around, get it done ASAP.

[olisik 4,060]

At least request a trade then so we can get something for him.....

[DeeZee 7,397]

The club should be cutting all ties now and not help him out with his legal battles anymore.

[Dee Fan 3,247]

First Wonna and now Jurrah.

[olisik 4,060]

Surely we should get some type of compensation?.....

[cowboy_from_hell 2,390]

Can't say that I am shocked by this but I think billy is right jurrah out boak in

Just when you think you've been kicked enough times, something else comes along.

This is just about the biggest kick in the guts I could ever imagine.

Never thought I could feel so low about footy and this club, but there is just no hope left, no light at the end of the tunnel, just nothing.

We pluck this guy out from nowhere, we support him, we set him up, and he gets into trouble and spits in our faces.

I can't judge him, I simply can't, but FFS this just kills.

Football just cannot get more painful.

[Grimes Times 1,278]

Why would either Adel or Port give up a draft pick for him when he might end up in jail.

He'll walk to the draft where no other club will touch him and ether Adel or port will take him with a late pick or even in the rookie draft.

Melb will end up with nothing!!!

[PaulRB 6,371]

So disappointing.

This year. So over it.

[Nasher 33,616]

Am I the only one who feels a sense of relief along with the disappointment?

[olisik 4,060]

Fantastic Job Aaron Davey is doing...

[Hatchman 539]

The club should be cutting all ties now and not help him out with his legal battles anymore.

Yeah that would be the decent thing to do wouldn't it?

[The Lobster Effect 892]

Damn!!!!!!!!!!!!

This all started with a broken wrist. If he hadn't broken his wrist he wouldn't have had the time off to be in alice springs and he wouldn't have been caught up in the situation. plus he probably would have played more than a game for us this season.

urgh

[Jaded No More 68,948]

Am I the only one who feels a sense of relief along with the disappointment?

You must be, because all I feel is dread that he'll tear it apart at Adelaide or Port next year, while we continue to rot at the bottom of the ladder with our mostly talentless list, and our lack of forwards.

Friggin horray!

Edit: if he was walking away from footy, I'd say "fair enough". It's been a tough road for him, and he's in for a whole lot more pain. But to walk away from our club, after everything we have done for him, is just too hard to swallow.

Liam's priorities in life are different to those of most of the players at the club. Not right or wrong, just different and I respect him for this. A brilliant talent, who will be missed.

I wish him all the best. I wonder what impact Jim's departure has really had on the club.

This has been staring us in the face for months.

I am not in the least surprised.

Move on he is gone.

get the best we can out of it if anything.

not me, i was holding out for an amazing comeback... unrealistic but it was worth hoping for. now that's been dashed

[Deers 202]

I'm not disappointed by it. Disappointment comes with expectation and I certainly did not expect Jurrah to play for us again.

Although, if I ever see him in Adelaide hoops or Port's black I will be heart-broken.

[Range Rover 1,935]

What a surprise.

[old dee 23,792]

No Nasher I feel the same.

In spite of him saying he wants to play in Adelaude.

IMO there are clearly more important things than playing AFL for LJ
