Nah, too early.. Third round and should be there.

Dumont, Dunstan, Crouch or Taylor - one will be there at 20/21 and are all quality players.

I think Dunstan might be there and I'd take him before Jones, not sure the others will be there.

Although, Brodie Grundy slipped last year - as did Kennedy and I expected both to go top ten, especially Grundy.

Grundy is something else.. Never seen someone so young who can dominate as a ruck like he did against Hawthorn. I was salivating over him watching those taps and follow ups.

 

how he got to 18 is insane, thought gws would take him at 3

Nathan Jones' 17 year old brother is tearing it up at the Dandenong Stingrays'

He's just been on the TAC future stars show.

Assuming he's of the same attitude and application as his bro, grab him now recruitment team. I want more Jonesies. Brothers of most of our other players need not apply.

I will admit I haven't seen him play- anyone have footage? But I'm growing warmer to this brothers playing in the same team thing. Is it something that Roosey will go for?

Imagine we had brothers again playing in the same team. I think it would only have a positive affect on the team having that kind of bond and the rest of the players can feed off that.

Kirk as assistant coach.

Trade pick2 for swallow or use pick2 for scharenberg.

Next pick, zac jones.

We must get zac jones. He is a lock.

Use pick2 if we have too.

 

i reckon we will get a PP at the end of round 1 . maybe mid 1st round

could be the perfect spot to get Zak

Prioity Pick will be 9 or 10 Wherever Essendon was going to be Makes sence as no other teams can complain

Just had breakfast with a hawthorn recruiter prior to him going off to watch more games and he stated that Zak Jones performance yesterday has moved him into the mid to late 20's and if he was to really shine next week he would really solidify his status in the 20's.

I think you would change your mind if you saw all the Grimes Kids. They younger they are the better they are.

Kid needs to settle down with this good form or he won't be there at our 3rd round pick.

Too right! Nate, get into his ear and make him have a shocker, maybe even spit the dummy at his team mates, the coach and the umpires a couple of times. All with a wink, of course.

That would be impossible. It's not in the Jones DNA.

Best we start staging a few photos of him emerging from nightclubs & knockshops & get 'em out on social media

Glad we didn't get him. Can't stand those "Shintaro"hairstyles.

Get him urinating on some nightclub bars or kicked out of the casino inebriated.....

So unlike MFC players ;);)

Lets try a Jack Darling approach

I heard Zak Jones has behaviour issues and likes the night club action. "I think he is like Dayle Gartlett and wose than Jack Darling" said one recruiting agent.

BUT SERIOUSLY ZAK JONES CAN PLAY & MFC MUST GET ...


He will only get better, much better. A small quick back who could develop into a tough mid like his brother.

http://www.afl.com.au/news/2013-09-17/boyd-buoyed-by-final

Zak Jones put in a starring performance in last week's comeback win over Calder Cannons, with 28 disposals, 10 tackles and 10 clearances.

The hardened half-back has moved into a midfield role and is also pushing up the draft order after a stellar season.

"He's become an elite player at this level," Yeats said.

"He's tough, runs straight, competes, and would eat a footy. He's a little bit mad, so we give him very simple instructions about his role and we let him go."

Slow down Zak!!!

If we lose Sylvia which to be honest i think we probably will unfortunately, we should get around pick 25 as compo, i'd use that on Jones, yes it's possibly pulling the trigger early but if you had to personify what our side needs, this guy does.

 

The more I hear, the more I like. I would be willing to spend an early second rounder on him, he sounds like just what we need, and I like the idea of the Jones boys playing together- pushing each other, and the sense of brotherhood and unity this list needs.

Get it done MFC or I'll be dissapointed.

Not a chance. First of all he won't be rated that highly and secondly we will no doubt be taking at least one FA ourselves, so the compo will be diluted. Most likely if we take Cross and Sylvia walks it will be seen as an even swap.

  • 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.
