Congrats and well deserved. A loyal servant of the club and in past one of our best players.

 

Congratulations, supremely loyal and dedicated to the red and blue.

Hopefully he becomes a part of the 300 game club this year as well.

Assuming he plays every game, it would be V's GC Suns in round 15, Sat arvo at the G.

And another 6 games after that he will equal the big fellas record of 306

 

Hopefully we can do him proud in his last few years. If any bloke deserves it, it’s Nate.

Peter Jackson gets life membership as well. Personally, I'd have given him Prime Ministership of Australia as well.

A terrific individual honour for a bloke that hasn't had much to celebrate from a team perspective throughout his career.

That said, a big part of me can't help but think that if he does crack the 300 games, it has more to do with other guys not taking the next step in their development.  Jones' form in 2019 was embarrassing at times, and his pace was a liability.  With a clean injury list (if there were such a thing), he's not in my starting 22, and is dropping down the depth list as well.

Yeah, but incompetentce is basically a prerequisite for that job, so he wouldn't even get a look in.

Congrats Jonesy boy, deserve all that comes your way.

Fantastic Achievement.

Jonesy deserves this.

Very well deserved, onya Jonesy!


Nathan Jones the heart of the club where loyalty is his strength. You couldn't ask for any better from a real Melbourne man. 

Congratulations on becoming an AFL life Member and more so hopefully a 300 gamer with the MFC.

Congratulations Nathan - despite great odds over many long seasons of football, you largely held out Club together with your tireless efforts and intents. A footballing sunset is a difficult time at the individual level but we all remember holding our heads high on so many occasions due to your endeavour. A just and rare reward for a MFC player. 

Well done with AFL life membership, not sure about his future career after the last 2 Seasons and with a healthy list pre season 2020  I can’t see him in the best 22, pace is a issue and seems lost from his mid in and under, has failed in set positions, fwd line position he would find it hard to play defensive, team injury’s might allow him to get to 300 games

Our modern day Robbie Flower!

Stayed loyal to the club when there was no reason to do so and coincidently wore the same number 2.

Everyone compares with Robbie, but not well. One can compare a Bugatti Veyron with a Skoda Fabia.

compare
verb
  1. 1.
    estimate, measure, or note the similarity or dissimilarity between.
     
    GRAMMAR
  2. form the comparative and superlative degrees of (an adjective or an adverb).
     
    noun
    LITERARY
  1. of a quality or nature surpassing all others of the same kind.

A plus for loyalty.

A grade player.

Be great to see him get to 300 and play finals in 2020.

Will be able to provide value off the bench this season, and would love to see him chase opposition players, as a leader been my greatest frustration with him, a pity when he has done so many things exceptionally well!

 

 

The strength of our support for Jones at this late stage in his career is a measure (never a comparison) of our respect for him on so many levels across recent MFC history. Surely?

  • CASEY: Richmond

    The winds finally returned to Casey Fields for the Demons’ third home game of the VFL season, and its impact was immediate. After two opening rounds played in uncharacteristically fine conditions, the Anzac Day clash brought back the familiar gusty conditions that have been a feature of the region at this time of the year.
    Forced to kick into the breeze first, the slow-starting Demons faced a tricky opening against an enthusiastic young Tigers outfit. Casey responded by turning the contest into a scramble, pressuring Richmond into errors and missed targets. The tactic proved crucial, keeping the game tight for three and a half quarters before the Demons pulled away with the autumn wind at their backs.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    It seemed as if the whole purpose of the Anzac Eve clash at the MCG between the Demons and the Tigers was building toward that single, unforgettable moment when Kozzie Pickett soared above Campbell Gray and all but fittingly etched his name onto the face of the 2026 Frank ‘Checker’ Hughes Medal.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day on Friday night. ANZAC Eve. The big stage at the ‘G. The Demons return to the spotlight for one of our most significant nights on the football calendar, taking on the Tigers in a clash that always carries extra weight given the gravity of occasion of the commemoration of the ANZAC Spirit. Under the lights, in front of a packed house, this is where moments are made. Can the Dees rise to the occasion and deliver on the big stage, or will Richmond spoil the night? All the build-up, discussion, and in-game reactions here. Go Dees.
