FAREWELL LIAM JURRAH

Featured Replies

bloody hell ....trade week's going to be busier than Flinders street at this rate !! lol

 

We are easy targets & will get trampled on from behind our backs until we create a culture that is worthy of a tight unifying bunch of hard nosed footballers.

It does start at the very top lets remember. I just spoke to a relative of McLardy who said that Don is gutted & angry about what has happened after all of the man hours and $$$ the club has put into Liam. I dont expect to see any of this in a press conference but thought I'd share the info with you.

I hope Rivers stays. He has always been one of my favourite players.

Strap yourselves in, it's startin to Blow Hard.

We need a Sweet Fast Talkin salesman type, to attract all buyers

[media=]

Im glad he is going. He is a distraction the club doesnt need and he doesnt have the work ethic to fit into NELDS plan. Get what we can and wear the loss. Yet to see any remote players not do this. I think other clubs will stop recruiting guys from remote parts as the risk outweighs the gain. Its a shame.

Not sure parma why you and others think we can get anything for LJ

I don't reckon Adelaide will take the risks involved.

Port will they don't have much to lose.

He can go into the draft no one outside of SA will be interested.

Port can select him with a late round pick and take the chance he beats the court case, stays fit and wants to play.


Not sure the club saw this coming, well at least today. Why would they put an article about his Court date on the club site and still have no response to the announcement?

That article is an AFL.com article attributed to us.

Why the hell does the web site still have the trial date story up with the picture of LJ in that stupid boody Blazer

perhaps theyre reminiscing ?? lol
 

Oh please that is uncalled for and way over the top

just a tad :unsure:

If Jurrah turns up at port Adelaide next year, after walking out on us...... And we receive nothing in return, than he is the biggest dog going around!!!!

We gave him time off to go north and sort out some family issues......and he sh1ts in our face....... We support him through he's court case and now he just walks!!!


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!

You all know he's my favorite Melbourne player. A sad day for me. He's not only a brilliant player when in full flight but an obvious drawcard for any SA club.

I know he states Family as the main issue. Hope it's not the start of a trail of good needed players leaving the Dees. A Coach with more Charisma may have helped. What chance do we have of enticing Cloke, Boak or Goddard types not to mention the best young draftees. Bugger we missed the boat with Malthouse and Lyon.

Recently in Adelaide Liam has been in contact with Dean Bailey, whom he shares a good relationship with. It was suggested to me that this is where he will be playing next year.

I was having lunch today in Clarendon St South Melbourne. Eddie McGuire came out of the Coffee Club, 5 minutes later I saw Liam Jurrah walk past into Coles nextdoor.

Now I got no idea if that's coincidence or not. McGuire works at Triple M so he's often around, but never seen Liam before.

Anyway he probably will try to get into a SA club, but I think he should have at least given us the option for a trade.

I've been a strong supporter of Jurrah on this site. Howver, I not going to join the "well played, sorry to see you go club" . In view of the chance we initially gave him and the continued support through injury and other matters, His behaviour is disgraceful. I now hope he drops of the scene completely.


im flabbergastered...is Clutterbuck still available ?

Vengeance is a dish best served cold!

Mods I demand Curry & Beer's account is suspended immediately for the longest time allowed for his/hers disgraceful comments above. Inciting violence against an individual is illegal, not just here either you hero.

im flabbergastered...is Clutterbuck still available ?

Might be the only one willing to join us bb?

Actually he wasnt treated with kid gloves; he was put out to run around ovals endlessly on his own.

Not once did the tough man in charge speak about him as far as I recall and on that alone its no suprise that the lure of family is strong for a bloke so far out of his natural comfort zone.

If there was ever a player who should have been given latitude from the 'toughen up of F off ' it was LJ.

Frankly Neeld is batting zero at present...10 games from Clark who is good but how good over time we dont yet know, and Jones was clearly on the improve before the new regime took power. Watts is same old same old same old. Howe still cant kick straight and we cant even beat Port any more..... No contract coz he was making a statement...goodbye LJ and Riv for nought

You're blaming this on Neeld? Seriously? FFS our supporters can be utter morons some times - how about recognising the historical issues Liam had to deal with? How about some responsibility for the fact he has "allegedly" hacked someone in the head with a machete? This was a no-win situation for Neeld & the club, no matter what they did they would have been potted in a situation not of their own making.


I feel a little angry inside and im not sure why. I get he needs to be closer to his family and his partner is due to give birth and its better for him to be in adelaide and he has all these other issue but I still feel a bit let down. Maybe im a little annoyed because instead of looking after his wrist he was out on the drink which got him into this mess.

It would be nice if Jurrah could help us out and do a trade so we get something rather than just walk out and into a SA club. he is out of contract.

We have done a lot to help him and I reckon we just say well we have taken you as far as we can. We shouldnt support him at his court case and should get back to focusing on this club and getting it right.

Why do you hope this of LJ? We'll never know the knitty grit ties of precisely why he left. I say good on him. If he plays for Port Adelaide then that's one for Dean Bailey!

im ordering the truckloads of ice right now ok !!

The mere fact you're so upset reflects just how great Jurrah is. Contrary to what you say perhaps we didn't do enough to keep him.

Petterd would be breathing a sigh of releif. May mean an extra chance for him.

Also isn't Aaron Davey meant to be the indiginous ambassador at the club? How could he have not known about something like this?

how could he let it have gotten to a point where the club has no prior notice to make any type of arrangements...

Davey is not telepathic. What the hell does it have to do with Davey it is up to the Club and there support network not a fellow player to be leading the way on this. Davey would be a mate and hopefully a leader not is Dad, Mum, Nanny whatever else. Liam has shown he makes his own calls in his life, of making the journey to the city, to go back to Darwin, to leave the club and want to live in Adelaide. He wants to keep playing AFL but from Adelaide. Again what the hell does Davey have to do with it?

  • PREVIEW: West Coast

    Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

Saturday kicks off with a pivotal clash for both sides asthe Bulldogs look to solidify their top-eight spot, while Port seeks to shake their pretender tag. Then the Crows will be looking to steady their topsy turvy season against a resurgent Blues looking to make it 4 wins on the trot. On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive.

Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • PREGAME: West Coast

    The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.
