Congratulations on apparently being the only person to think Nathan Jones would be a good player and captain one day.....

Also, just wondering how your more recent genius predictions have been going? Like these ones you made for season 2013...

Grand Finalists: Sydney vs. West Coast

Premiers: Sydney

Wooden Spoon: Gold Coast

Biggest AFL Story of the Year: "Lance Franklin Rejects Hawks; Heads West to Fremantle"

The Biggest Improvers: GWS, Richmond

Most Improved: Sam Blease

Final Ladder Position: 11th

    Even the best of us are wrong sometimes, Stuie. That must have been on one of my very few off days...

    When I saw the blue star next to the title thread I thought this would have been a thread where I queried Green's captaining...

    Don't want to go back there...

    To those that didn't see Jones as Captain in 2011 (I was one that would have overlooked him) the difference between the Jones of 2011 and the Jones of the last two years is quite stark.

    Thanks PJ, I've always prided myself on my modesty. It's probably my fourth best trait after intelligence, good looks and athleticism.

    hey... let's not overlook the fact that in your prediction you stated that he will "thrive under Neeld..."... so, are you crediting Neeld with his rise to the captaincy? ;-)

    Haha well Jones did excel while Neeld was coach. Whether he excelled because of Neeld's coaching or because of his own hard work though, is difficult to know ^_^

    "Green named Jack Grimes, Jack Trengove, Nathan Jones, Daniel Nicholson and Rohan Bail as players to step up their leadership"

    Impressive effort from a player still on a rookie list.

    We need his style of play in our team so hopefully he continues to develop.

    I laughed.

    • 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.
