MELBOURNE forward Liam Jurrah briefly faced the Northern Territory Supreme Court on Monday where it was confirmed he will stand trial in March.

Jurrah is charged with one count of unlawfully causing serious harm and three counts of aggravated assault.

The 23-year-old appeared via video link from Melbourne to the courthouse in Alice Springs.

His bail conditions have been altered to allow him to continue living with family in South Australia.

The Demons are yet to announce whether Jurrah will be contracted for 2013.

The trial has been set down for 12 March 2013, and has been slated to run for nine days.

The date marks more than a year after the night of alleged violence at the Little Sisters Town camp on the outskirts of Alice Springs.
