Plus Joel's 3 premierships as well. Its quite a record.

But well done to Nathan. he is been a tower of strength over the past through years and carried this team through the lean years. He never stopped trying and putting his head over the ball.

Its a shame the game wasnt in melbourne but cant help that. Would be nice to see the boys lift for there skipper.

also has Jonsey been recognised in the media for his milestone. this week. I have been away. I hope he has.

Barely a whisper from the media (aside from the MFC site).

No wonder many of us are negative, just listen to some of the questions that Matt Burgan asks Nathan Jones leading into his 200th game here.

Plus Joel's 3 premierships as well. Its quite a record.

3 flags. 8 finals series. 21 finals.

Jones has 0 flags, 1 finals series, 2 finals.

Jones is also the 19th most losing-est player out of all current players (24.37% winning record). Such a stat is usually skewed towards those who haven't played many games (e.g. Giles in worst with 9 wins from 54 games). There are only two players in the top 20 who have played 100 games. One is Garland, on 133. The other is Jones, on 199.

Selwood, on the other hand, is the 7th most winning-est player out of all current players (77.48% winning record).

You wouldn't blame Jones for having just a tiny bit of jealousy.

Will go on to be our second 300 gamer and a club great.

In his first game.

I always thought Jonesy had short cropped hair in his early days. ( Not bald). Am I wrong on this one?

Best wishes Chunk. Here's hoping his 200th inspires the troops to a memorable performance.

There's no way he shouldn't play this week. What an overtly poor message that would send from the club.

Surely the team will turn up to play tomorrow and to play bloody hard! It would be insulting to Nathan if they did otherwise. Well done Jonesy, you are a true legend of the club.

A fine player who always gives his all - well done on your 200th Nathan.

Well done Jonesy I will be there to see you reach the milestone as I was in your second and last final back in 06 (seems a lifetime ago).

I just hope the boys lift for you today and give you the performance your services to the club deserve

All the best Chunk

Just finished reading todays Age and HS - not a word. That's disappointing but typical,

Well, a premiership by 300 is a reasonable aim.

Maybe even in his actual 300th - 20ish games a season for 5 years should land it at about the right time.

Obviously the fact that his 300th game will be such a triumph is the reason nobody in the media feels a need to talk up his 200th.
