3 x Best and Fairest and 6 seasons as captain puts him as a champion of the club.  It is phenomenal to look back and see what was asked of him every week before Vince, Cross and Tyson were brought into the club.

Have really liked seeing him spending time in the forward line this year.  Gets the ball in tight, can find the goals and makes some big tackles.  Definitely not a defender or a wingman, but there may be an ongoing spot for him as a forward.

 

Well done Nathan on achieving 272 games.

Nathan showed last night that his best football is still in the middle feeding of Max's taps.

Jonesy isn't a winger but gives it all he has but no-one roves to Max as he does. Clarry, Viney and Gus could all learn from Jones on this art. Harmes is IMO the closest to Jones with his reading of the Max tapout. I would rather left sided only, Viney stayed in the forward line and worked on locking the ball in our half

If anyone cares to reflect on Jones' loyalty in tough times, consider this -

Robert Flower: 272 Games, 88 wins, no draws, 184 losses

Nathan Jones: 272 Games, 86 wins, 3 draws, 183 losses.

 

Another side note, since his debut he has missed a total of 11 games.

 

For anyone too young to remember Flower, these figures are solid evidence that the bulk of the era in which he played was equally miserable for Melbourne supporters as the recent years in which Jones has played. However, Flower's ethereal brilliance made attending Melbourne's games a joy. Winning was just a bonus.

I am sorry Nathan.. I had written you off and you put egg on my face the last month.. Sorry Nathan, I will not doubt you again... 

Sincerely SPC.

Well at least someone on here has had the stones to apologize to El Capitano.

A few religious posters on the forum big noted him for the chop during last season and the off season. 

Cue Pauline Hanson.

Shame,shame,shame on you all who doubted Jonesy boy.

Thought I saw the writing on the wall late last year, but he has come good. It is the second coming..

Please start writing off more of our players if it results in them having similar form reversals.

No coincidence that Jones form has improved since he started spending more time in the middle.

He is not a winger. 

And he's running into fitness,  like half the side is, atmo.

Bump*

Is everything ok with the Jones boy?  Saw his presser today in Darwin and he just doesn't look great.

Hoping this is not the case and could be just lacking some decent sleep but thought i would ask in case someone might have heard something on the grapevine.

I believe Nate's wife was close to her as well 

The club needs to string together some wins and support this guy.

Hes a champ surrounded by very timid hearts.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
