FAREWELL LIAM JURRAH


DemonDave

Recommended Posts

No, he could just go into the PSD or rookie draft where no club other than Adelaide or Port would touch him with a 60ft. pole

The contracts thread shows that he is out of contract this year. Therefore we are unlikely to get anything for him.

Sean Charles Mk II...........will never recover from his wrist injury, and no matter where he plays, he will not be the same as he was for us.

Well he Aboriginal if that's what you mean. My impression is he is well over the wrist injury. He may not be the same. He will be better.

Here's the truth of the matter.

Ive always been saying that Jurrah was not in our future plans and this isnt just because (and ive said it over and over despite being criticised) he will soon be in jail, but because he doesnt work hard enough and relies purely on talent rather than work-rate. He - like Wonnamerri - were exciting talents, but both are fails.

I saw Wonna up at Darwin airport way back in 2005 or 2006 and he said to a bloke with me that he 'didnt want to go back to Melbourne, hated the city and didnt want to play at the club.' - Pretty bl00dy clearly for all to hear without any concern.

So Im starting to lean towards the belief that the indigenous players at our club under Bailey were treated with kids gloves. They could walk around in public and diss the club apparently without any issues. Then when Neeld arrived suddenly Aaron Davey is allegedly telling Misfid that he is a racist and then denies it?? Seems strange to me given Liam's situation, the fact that a number of times this year Liam asked 'not to play.' What if after being treated with kid's gloves suddenly they are put under the pump?

I certainly don't think that Liam, and Wona, have done much to "progress the cause" for indigenous players by their antics this year.

One would think the club may be a bit wary about commitment.

Or Lawrence, he just walked out on us a week or two ago.

Interview Malthouse now. Get him to pick the new players we must get from trade and draft. Get rid of Neeld. Beat Carlton to the punch.

I"m not a Neeld advocate. We missed the boat with Malthouse and will spend the next 3 years around 12-16 as a result. Lets hope there's more to Neeld than meets the eye. Anythings possible.

re Davey

Maybe theres more validity in the off the cuff lambasting that you ridicule so quickly.

Davey does have a role as mentor of his 'brothers" Liam was one of the charges under his wing. So maybe there is a question to ask , how much might have Aaron known about Liam's inclination to go walkabout?

If he knew anything did he pass it on to the club ?

Whats wrong with asking these ?

Careful. The Demonland guardians of moral turpitude will have you strung up for daring to ask such questions of the brothers...

Jason Mifsud could be reading these posts right now....

What is the indigenous "cause"?? What are the antics exactly? Nothing proved . Tell me what did Fevola do to progress the white man's cause? Would you like anymore examples.

Perhaps the White Person doesn't need a cause cos he's shat all over Aboriginal culture, tradition and people for over 200 years.

Still happening....

Three players have walked out on the club in last couple of years: Wonna, Lawrence and now Liam.

Fev, there's a thought. Handy 2 Yr option. We'd be up to 10th this time next year.

fair enough... it could be said that LJ just couldnt go the extra yard to the professionalism required for AFL..

What does that story say about the coach?

That, like everyone else, he can lead a horse to water...................

Also, thaipantsman, can you just get a friggin punching bag with Neeld's face on it so you don't feel the need to find a way to refer to your disapproval of him in EVERY post.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi
