Nathan Jones father/son

[Grapeviney 9,721]

Probably won't be drafted until about 2034 but we've already got a picture of the young lad.

 

[Skuit 10,031]

Same hairdo as his/her old man.

This could possibly turn out to be the longest ever running thread on Demonland.

Let's hope so.

Finally we have someone to look forward to

Very good news!

This is almost the very definition of counting chickens before they're hatched!

But good luck to them!

Start him in the square against North. Couldn't be any more underdone than Brayshaw was last week.

I think you'll find that's a leg and a kneecap. Father/daughter?

Nugget confirmed it was a boy on twitter. Bring on the 2034 National Draft!

Big head too.

Would've been right to go last game.

I'm glad that Jones' personal life is going a bit better than his professional life. 

If we are still around when this kid is 18, and the AFL haven't scrapped the father/son rule by then, I will enjoy cheering on Jones Jnr.

And the ultimate predictions thread. What will the AFL look like when young Jones Jnr. makes his debut in 2036? I'm predicting helmets. And snorkels.

Gone to Freo I reckon.  Jack Viney had already well and truly signed by now.

(congratulations Mr and Mrs Jones!)

[Ted Lasso 19,518]

I wonder if the father son rule could be changed to a legacy rule, where by a child of a player who's played 100 or more games at a club can be signed on to that club early, with the female league coming in i think a few daughters might be keen to follow in their fathers footsteps!

it's a great time in the AFL

Trenners has a very nice girlfriend and has been in a long term relationship with her for some time. I am told it is quite serious.Didn't Jack Grimes get married just last year? If so - definitely time to get a move on.

Yea,  I think these guys should hurry up or I will miss seeing  their kids in red & blue !

Grimes needs 2 games

Trenners 19 games.

 

# As an aside,  the F/S 100 games limit,  should be changed,  to either 100 games or 5 consecutive seasons on one clubs list.  (senior list or rookie)  This would cover length of service to a club,  & it also looks after those who were chronically injured effecting their games tally.

 

.its only fair.  you know its so.
