Liam Jones

Very interesting. Given the quality of the dogs midfield and their lack of key forwards, you'd think they're an ideal club for a young, big forward to make a name for himself. Very popular player at the club as well.

 

I've seen little to indicate that this guy is any good.

Yes but to be fair he has had to play as the No1 target when he has played.. SEN were saying Carlton as the front runner last night.. He'd be their 3rd tall, hence third defender, I could see that actually working.


Do we need another Jones at the club?

Jacks and Jones....we're into collections aren't we ?? :rolleyes:

I've seen little to indicate that this guy is any good.

He looked good on Sunday in the VFL final with 5 goals in a high standard game. He is big, physical and has good hands. His problems are above the shoulders perhaps.

 

I'd prefer Tom Jones.

I'd prefer Zac Jones to both of them.

I'd prefer Tom Jones.

Thats not unusual !!

Maybe he is just missing the green, green grass of home.

I am not sold on Liam Jones. He was horrible against us in round 15 (1 disposal before being subbed) and not much better in round 8 (8 disposals in another close fought game). I can't say I watch many doggies games, and the truth be told the dees v dogs games where the only doggies games I watched for the 2014 season, and he looked out of place at AFL level and a liability to his team mates.

I am sure he has more to offer, and has some development to do, but from what I understand he is seeking more money and more opportunity to play when the side he is with is crying out for a player of his mold? Something doesn't add up here, and I think this is one of those steer clear type situations.


Soft as butter , wouldn't go near with a ten foot poll. Having big Fitzy on the list is our extra tall we are still "waiting" to wake up a grab the game by the scruff , we don't need 2

No, No and No. Why do so many posters on DL want to link us with every player that is delisted or requests a trade?! Liam Jones is the last thing we need.

We'll get mentioned with every tall who comes on the market, because it's obvious we need at least 1 or 2 more with Clark and Chip going. Some people on here seem to be on heat for every player who wants to move clubs or is delisted.

For what I've seen I'd prefer Butcher over Jones, but trust that Roos, Stones and co will find a tall diamond in the rough somewhere.


Why, why, why?

wonder if he'll sing the Frawley song ? :)

 

Back in 2008 I'd have taken a chance. Good athlete, has all the talent just can't deliver it.

If Carlton or some other club get him for a 3rd round deal they could be on to a steal. Definitely better than the Pies trying for someone like Jesse White.

But as of right now we need to back in Dawes, Hogan, Fitzpatrick and Pedersen I think. Given the state of our list that's enough to spend on key forwards.

Let's redirect energies in to finding some decent midfielders and flankers. Ideally we find someone in the draft who's a proper developing tall and can be utilised at either end like a Sam Reid at Sydney.

If you're going to take a chance of fixing a floundering prospect then go with the delisted or very cheap prospect like Sam Grimley from the Hawks who's barely had a shot at AFL level and can have a go as a second ruck as well.

R&B where is Butcher at these days? When he did finally play for Port a few years ago he kept kicking goals then he disappeared from sight again after an injury I think.

  • Thank You Simon Goodwin

    As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

  • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

    Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

  • REPORT: West Coast

    The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

  • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

    With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
