I reckon I saw that bloke in the bullring after the game and he opened up his shirt there and was showing off a small Melbourne symbol tattooed on his chest.

Is he a D'lander?

Interesting extracts of Roos' comments on Jones:

“I just love the balance in his game. We had a couple of debates last year about what he thinks is a good game and what I do, and I think we’re getting some common ground now,” he said.

“I just think his understanding of what the coaches want now and understanding what his teammates need him to do is really good. I think he’s a better player this year than he was last year – and he won our best and fairest last year.”

“When you’re playing in a poor team a lot, you tend to think about yourself and how many possessions you get,” he said.

“Whereas I think really what he’s focusing on now is how he can help his team and he was exceptional.

I can't find it atmo but read Roos comments somewhere last week about Grimes is at Casey learning to play a team and not an individual game. That surprised me given the anecdotes of him being a 'team man'. In context of the above it suggests Grimes didn't understand what the coaches want. Will be interesting to see if Grimes gets in this week. Brayshaw and Vandenberg both talked in their interviews about sticking to coaches instructions. It seems to be the main criteria for selection: Do what the coaches want you to do!! Sounds good to me!

Jones is a fast learner - for years an outstanding on-field player. Now likely to be one of the best captains and on-field leaders in the game.
