Best wishes to Walla and I hope things work out for the best for him. 

I just like watching him play.  How many football players get a song written about them?

    I gather you might be alluding to Liam Jurrah and the family troubles that led him to return back to his home.

    Tippa is a top end Tiwi Islander, Jurrah from desert country Yuendumu, Central Australia. They are quite different cultures. Not all indigenous Australians are the same, or even comparable.

    As I recall our own Austin Wonammeri was  in a similar situation and never came back near his dynamic best.

    Good luck Tippa …… hope you can get back to your best (except v MFC of course).

    Wonammeri did end up playing some good footy for NT Thunder I think it was in the NEAFL (Basically QLD/NSW combined state league) as few years ago.

    Why are we posting about the injectors? 

    We're not...

    We're posting about a young man going through a difficult time.

    He's a joy to watch when he's not playing us.

    Plays with great flair and spirit, I wish him all the best and hope to see him back out there.

    ...and if he's not, then at least be in a good place with his life.

    Fair comment, I’d just rather read posts about MFC on Demonland that’s all.

    I hate the Bombers above all others, I like Tippa. I am glad he is back 

    Yep my hatred for that club is separate from my respect for individual players, and my empathy towards people struggling with mental health issues.

    He's also a super fun players to watch.

    He looks heavy, am very glad he's not playing us, he can be a total wrecking ball when he turns it on.

    Awful news. One of the true excitement machines of the AFL when he's up and running, wish him all the best.

    • 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.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
