    I guess it sheds some light on what's been a slight 'down year' for him.

    (Makes me wonder about whether Garland has carried anything considering my criticism of his lack of spark and intensity all year).

    Unbelievable warrior though Jonesy, lucky to have him.

    I love this guy as captain. Puts everything in perspective for his inconsistent year.

    Can't wait to see him get back to his best in 2016.

    I wonder if it is in some way related to the neck injury he suffered at the end of the 2010 season.

    Well there you go.

    Remarkable he was able to still perform at the level he did. What a champion. .

    back injury, wasn't it?

    But maybe neck related...

    Every single night, before I go to bed, I tell my missus I love Nathan Jones more than her.

    She understands.

    Guys got some serious fortitude.

    Come out spitting fire next year Nate!

    Neck surgery is serious stuff.

    It's a bit of a worry.

    Peyton Manning had multiple, much more serious operations on his neck and came back to set multiple NFL records (including a single season touchdown record) and make it to another Superbowl. All aged 35+.

    Nathan will be fine.

    Ouch.

    Show of hands now, all the nuff-nuffs who were saying we should trade him.

    What a trooper. Get this man a premiership.

    A worrior of this club.

    Those who questioned his leadership are clueless

    Need whatever that bloke has bottled. In gallons! Absolute machine.

    Neck operation? Here I was thinking he was made of iron. Best of luck Chunk!

    I think it involves a bit of welding.

    Absolutely love him and hope it goes well.

    B grader.

    Fmd.

    Give it a rest Neeldy.

    Rating a player with a letter is ridiculous. The facts are that he is a three time BNF winner, much loved by the supporters and has been our best player for a long time. Unfairly rated by 'supporters' like yourself, and the AFL in general.

    IMO.

  • Quote

    Well, now I feel like an right [censored]...

    I could only comment on what I saw in his performance and it was obviously hindered by a painful injury at times...

    Makes you appreciate the big games he put in though...

  • Quote

    If this was Nathan Jones playing a seaon injured, he could explode next year.

    There was talk earlier in the year that he might have been carrying a shoulder/neck injury. I think against the Tigers on ANZAC eve he copped a hard knock at the bottom of a pack that floored him - looked very uncomfortable afterwards.

    Captain, leader, gun.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Adelaide

      Noffy, Hatchy and Randy lead Adelaide’s finals-hardened flock to IKON Park for a blockbuster semi-final against Kate Hore and Hanksy’s mighty Demons.  Adelaide has dropped four of its past five matches at this ground — let’s hope that trend holds.  But don’t expect charity — Doc Clarke brings an experienced, battle-worthy murder of Crows.

      Melbourne returned to its city citadel, IKON Park, boasting a 10–2 home record and celebrating its 100th AFLW matchwith 3,711 fans creating a finals atmosphere. But in a repeat of Round 11, Brisbane proved too strong, too fit, and too relentless.  They brought their kicking boots: 9 goals, 2 points.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.
