    Awesome effort and will be 200 of the toughest (mentally and physically) I've seen. Not many have done what Jones has done, through such a dark period.

    Hoping he has a blinder after a few quiet ones.

    Can't let the last 3 or 4 weeks take away from what this bloke has done during such a shitty period at the club. I love Jonesy and hopefully we can have a win for him.

    It's hard to believe some of the criticism that has flown around this forum over the last couple of days. Nate has been great this year and has just had a rough month of footy as he's still lacking support from the rest of the midfield while he cops the main opposition tag every week. His bleeds red and blue and will do so until he retires.

    Let's celebrate what this man has done for the club in arguably one of the darkest periods in football history. Cheers Jonesy :).

    Lol no he won't. Will be down the bottom so long as he's captain.

    Pity it had to be this week. Maybe we should give him a week off and bring this up against an opponent we have half a chance to compete with. His 200th might just be enough to convince the side to put in an effort.

    A champion of this club who has suffered more than most.

    His competitiveness and loyalty is amazing and I wish that the next 100 games of his career are a hell of a lot more successful than the last 200 have been.

    Absolutely deserves success, and his teammates putting in a good effort this week.

    Congrats to a player that will go down as an MFC great.

    If I were in charge of the club I'd rest him this week (call it general soreness) and let him play his 200th in front of his home crowd vs GWS. This weekends going to be a complete write off, a 100 point flogging and he deserves to celebrate it in better circumstances.

    do you mean when he gets to climb the stairs to, up there, in the loft ?

    This weekend offers him the chance to lead an angry and aggressive Demon side to the most unlikely of victories in hostile territory. The perfect game for a 200th.

    Well done chunk.

    I wish he didn't go to Perth this week and waited for the GWS game.

    Rest him this week and let him play his 200th in Melbourne, please

    you have my vote h.

    Sadly for Nathan he has been at the Dees during arguable our poorest period. Like Flower he will never get the admiration from the general football world he deserves.

    Absolute legend.. Hopefully he does what Flower couldn't.. Win a Flag at the end of his career!!

    Even if we get Freo on a bad day.. This will be an ugly affair..

    Well done N Jones, but jeez, what a way to bring up his 200th.

    A shellacking in front of a hostile crowd in Perth.

    But really, would we have it any other way?

    MFC. Because [censored] you.

    There is one positive next weekend.

    The result is how he has spent most of his time at the MFC so it wont be new for him.

    Just another day at the MFC office

    Bloody good player, has shown commitment to the club through the darkest times. I'm all for trading senior players but not Jones, he deserves success in the red and blue.

    I agree but I think like a lot of MFC champions he will be gone by the time we have a list capable of producing it.

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons are back at the MCG for the second week in a row. They face the Suns off a 15 day break without their prized recruit and former Demon champion Christian Petracca. This will be a massive test for the Demons who will be facing a genuine Premiership contender. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Carlton

      The text messages started flooding in shortly after quarter time. One read: “Is Melbourne even at the ground?” Moments later, as Carlton’s Elijah Hollands kicked the first goal of the second term, the Blues held a commanding 43-point lead. By then, the Demons’ only score was a behind kicked by Brody Mihocek nearly five minutes into the game. Ironically, Mihocek would also register the last minor score of the day after the game took a dramatic turnaround.

      The Demons snatched Victory form the Jaws of Defeat as they clawed their way back from 43 points down to win by 23 points in Max Gawn and Tom McDonald's 250th matches at the MCG. Never in Doubt!!!
