1st you need to know the definition of A grade, if there are 5 grades he is easily in the top 20%

Good point.

For example, if you used the 5 grades, you might say Ablett is an A+ while Jones would be an A-. A bit overly technical but might make an A grade a little more accurate for Jones.

Just thinking about how long we have been calling out for a true A-Grade Player at the top of his game and really believe we have one right now in Nathan Jones. The bloke is as tough as they come, an

Well generally when someone consistently and irrationally has a go at you, being the 'troll' is probably the more mature perspective is it not? as opposed to insulting him back...right?

love him...but i have a sneaky feeling he will be in gold and brown in a couple of years.

Now mate, you're just trolling to see who bites. Either that or you are a serious defeatist with a Whack-a-mole approach to posting.

To get back to the main thread!! Ahem

Not that I have ever "Hijacked" a thread

Nate Jones for all reasons above terrific player but still a shade under "A" Grade..

Rationale ... Doesn't turn a game!! And by turn a game doesn't win em of his own boot!

But still a very good player!

Cheers all Fence!

I'd definitely rate him as an A-grader. An A-grader can be a combo of different things, biggest thing for me is his consistency. He rarely has a bad game and you'd guarantee any team in the comp would take him in a heartbeat. Not a star, but they are a class in own right.

It would take a tsunami to turn a Dees game. Can't blame Jones for not being capable of parting the Red Sea.

How long, in your opinion fence, before he is playing in black and gold?

Gday Biiter's Lime and Soda stream!!

Sheeit I dunno I actually haven't heard any rumours re Nate Jones!

FWIW I think Nathan Jones puts a few things "Above" Money and even a tilt at the flag.

A lot like Rob Flower, I think he will stay very very true and finish his career as a Demon Great! Regardless of finals or anything else!

Thanks for involving me in this Discussion!

    TRAINING: Wednesday 15th January 2025

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session. BLWNBA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I arrived at around 1015 and the squad was already out on the track. The rehab group consisted of XL, McAdam, Melksham, Spargo and Sestan. Lever was also on restricted duties and appeared to be in runners.  The main group was doing end-to-end transition work in a simulated match situation. Ball mov
