FAREWELL MATT JONES

Featured Replies

Posted

Matt Jones has played his last game for the MFC.

Calling it now.

 

I've probably been the biggest detractor of Jones, but this is wrong. He was far from the worst today, he was pretty good early.

I've been one of his biggest detractors, but he was close to our best player in the first half.  He was terrific.

Faded in the second half, no doubt, and that error at the end was bad, but if we based things off an error like than then many of our players wouldn't get a gig either.

Calling it now that he'll be in the side again next week.

 

You could tell by the look on his face after that goal, he knew it too.

I look forward to your justification. Was it him running himself into the ground whilst maintaining 90% DE that did it for you?

Good for you. But you're wrong.

 

Just now, Clint Bizkit said:

He was very good in the first quarter but to drop the ball like he did in the last is simply inexcusable.

Seems to work pretty well for Dawes and Hogan in getting regular games. 

Every player makes mistakes. We lost that game because we collectively sucked in the last quarter. We failed miserably defensively as we have on many occasion this year. 


Really? You choose to start this thread today? Your "calling it now"? 

Must be a typo and he meant to say Chris Dawes

Well it's a [censored] call

Thought he was decent. Could name at least 10 worse than him

Care to elaborate? I didn't have a chance to see or hear the game so I'd like to know why you think his career might be over. To post as you have is somewhat simplistic. Or, to put it another way, are there any other toys you want to throw out of the cot while you're at it?


Pathetic thread. One fumble trying to take the game on after it is over.

Most reasonable posters on here have been critical in the past, but can see he is serviceable at the very least this season.

Surprised we didn't see a similar thread early in the game for Hogan when he coughed a goal up switching play, or Bernie's handball that led directly to a goal, or OMac's dropped mark early in the game.

Worst thread ever - Calling it now!

Maybe 'Allen' got the wrong player???

There is a certain key forward who surely doesn't have a lot of time left...

Maybe switch "game" for "season", but even then it is hard to gauge.

Until we get more serious pace onto the list there will be a place for M Jones.


I'm a hater-but the Jones boy done ok today.

Nup, he wasn't worst by long way, he might get another game next week although I'd prefer Oliver or Brayshaw

Matt Jones far from our worst. Now if the OP had put 'Chris Dawes' in his thread title he'd have little disagreement...

 

Thought he was ok but on top of the fumble also had a couple of other costly turnovers that resulted in goals.

not best 22 once younger mids are ready but serviceable depth for mine.

    We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

  • CASEY: Box Hill

    The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

  • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

    The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
