COREY JONES

Featured Replies

He has been dropped again. He has the ability to kick multiple goals. Had a great year last year. I think we should go for him. I'd be interested in Boyle as well.

 

what part of 'we are not looking for anyone over 23' don't you understand? there is NO point in picking up jones. zero.

Shh. Let him go ahead with his ideas.

I would seek out 0 players because going for anything U23 would usually ask for something hefty in return, and likely to be picks, which we are not trading away.

Seek draft picks? Late 1st rounders should be the go.

 

correct, the draft is the way to go..another pick in the top 20 would be great except i dont think we have any trade-able players worth that much

Corey Jones surely won't go. Roos need him because Thompson won't last long and Edwards is inconsistent, and now that Grant has gone- Hale can't be their only avenue to goal.

Don't rule out getting players in trade week who are over 23 freak.

jones is worth a top 20 pick and we should seriously consider trading him because Moloney is older, less value, yet valuable to our team as he can roost the ball and win it tight, as well as being a better leader. Jones gets wrapped up too much. Valenti is worth keeping, and we'd neevr trade mclean or mcdonald

Better watch your Joneses BB. I presume you mean Nathan in the last paragraph.

FWIW, I wouldn't touch Corey Jones with a barge pole; has had a dog of a year. Over paid, over rated. Sound familiar?

He was close to All Ausralian last year and can kick a goal unlike anyone else in our forward line. Anyone can have a bad year it doesn't mean they are finished. Players usually don't get traded if they have had a great year.

No chance!!!

 

Nope, don't rate Corey Jones. Sure he's up and about when the team is winning, but is one of the first to drop off when the going gets tough.

Actually, when i think about it, he'd be a perfect fit with the dees.

how can you even consider trading for these kinds of players, when we are ONLY going through this part of the season with one thing in mind, THE DRAFT. Look towards the draft and consider who we should pick up and who we could trade off, cause this trading for players business ain't gonna happen.


I think I rate Corey Jones higher than some who have posted in this thread, but I don't think he's a fit for us.

.... the draft is the way to go..another pick in the top 20 would be great except i dont think we have any trade-able players worth that much

Indeed.

Whilst Jones is a good player. He has struggled this year and does not fit Mfc's youth requirements ....

He has been dropped again. He has the ability to kick multiple goals. Had a great year last year. I think we should go for him. I'd be interested in Boyle as well.

I cant see it happening, but good on u for putting an idea out there mate, dont let them shoot u down..

Boyle is a far more viable option, and is one 2 look at, As ive mentioned a dozen times.. :)

Corey Jones is the biggest front runner in the league, and he has some of his own team mates chasing him for this title...Daniel Wells and Daniel Harris look great when the roos are up and beating someone but when the pressure is on and the game is there to be won, they are as soft as butter


Boyle is a far more viable option, and is one 2 look at, As ive mentioned a dozen times.. :)

Yes. Worth looking at and contemplating....

Corey Jones is a bit older than I thought he was so he's probably not a great idea for the club, but if someone does pick him up they will have a good player. Even though he hasn't had a great year he has still kicked more goals than any Melbourne player.

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.
