Liam Jurrah 2019

Will be playing in the curatin raiser to our game today.

Tune in on channel 7 at 11:50pm

 

I read the thread title and thought..

What....he's  been stuffed and mounted !!

 

you may wish to merge with an earlier thread  ;) 


 

Can we rookie him to play the 2 NT games? Work with Wrecker as part of the academy, and get some interest in the Dees up there.

Otherwise it's just like playing 2 home games against West Coast or Adelaide every year.

Had he of started his career not when we were a complete rable things more than likely would have turned out better. You can’t do much about culture but being in a poor side with no leadership off field wouldn’t have been appealing.

Issues started when he left mfc not prior

Wrong. Started drinking at MFC. China game anyone?

I didn't watch that game but just before the main game, one the commentators claimed that Liam's younger brother also played but on the opposite side.

Anything known about him?

My recollection is that he first got into "difficulties" when he had that wrist injury and MFC gave him leave to return home.


it's got very little to do with MFC and whether we were/weren't a basket case. Liam had cultural responsibilities thrust on him at an early age that would severely test anyone. It was almost impossible for him to make a go of it at any AFL club, particularly one in remote cold grey Melbourne.

I could be wrong, but I have a feeling this China trip was significant in kicking things off in terms of drinking.

Hard to believe he's 30 years old already. And so's Austin Wonaemirri. 

What a talent Austin was. Maurice Rioli skills and balance/

 

I remember LJ being terrific but watching the highlites he was even better than i recall ,imagin him and Austin i the same forward half for a decade,my mind just boggles at the thought

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
