Lol! As opposed to typing opinions alone in a dark room?

I snuck out once to contribute to the purchase of his jumper.

I hope it's taking pride of place somewhere in the NT.

 

Jurray was talented, but very soft.

He was a hell of a player, very talented individual.

Should still be out there, but didn't have the mental toughness.

So I would partially agree with you, that he is mentally soft.

Could one of you highly trained psychologists please give your professional definition of "mentally soft"? Having obviously played at the highest level you would know what it takes to be mentally strong.

FMD....

 

If only Jurrah didn't bash women...

I don't know what some you watch when you go to the footy. Like Watts, Jurrah would pick and choose his contests. I know he was lightly framed and was used to playing on dirt, so they rarely tackled or threw each other to the ground, so there are mitigating circumstances, nonetheless, he struggled to come to grips with the physicality of AFL footy.

I get you guys didn't see it, but it was plain for all to see. It doesn't mean it happened every time, but there were numerous instances when Jurrah avoided situations when he shouldn't have.

You don't agree, that's fine, I'll leave it there.

in fairness though, we only saw a brief part of his football development

given he was coming from a long way back (in terms of afl requirements) who knows how he would have developed and improved those "weaknesses"?

If it were up to you, Jurrah would still be on our list on his 100th chance.

I am no psychologist, but when it comes to predicting Liam Jurrah, I think my track record is second to none on this forum.

I don't need to go over it in this thread - as it is already in the Jurrah thread.

Absolutely, agree 100%.

Talent wise, he is up there with Jacko.

Strange way of showing you "get it", proddy - when what you immediately say is to invalidate what you just said you got.

"You'll leave it there"...?

If only Henry Lawson wasn't such a drunk.

If only we could all be so highly evolved that our shyte never stank.

There's actually plenty here that agree with me. It's their choice to remain silent.

But I "get" that some football observers are barely that, which explains the outrage at such a suggestion. You cannot see what you cannot see.

I'll leave it there.

Plenty don't.

Good for you, 316, Jurrah's downfall has only enhanced your standing.

If it were up to me you wouldn't put words in others mouths and act like you know it all. But there you go....

I figured you wouldn't. Last word merchant. Speaks for those who don't speak, too.

Sees what others don't. Then explains they can't. Shlt it's lousy being me! Enjoy the footy, but what would I know? Like the players, like the grounds, I'm just rubbish. Should turn myself in to Chuck Norris and be done with it - if he'd just take the time to annihilate me. Sorry Prods mate.

Don't be so hard on yourself.

Ahhhhh ProDee doesn't like Jurrah (to go along with Goodes and Lumumba)... There's a surprise.

Which year did you finish? :P

1969

Aussie's been a good paddock since he called it quits.

I saw them at the game yesterday too

Also saw Jared Rivers so good to see some past players still having a soft-spot for the dees

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
