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

    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.

    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

    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?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      Melbourne’s early surge of optimism came crashing back to reality in its clash with Fremantle at Optus Stadium on Saturday night. Just six days after unveiling its fun-filled, attack-minded style against the Saints, the Demons were met by a Dockers outfit determined to shut it down with a blend of speed, pressure, and physicality.

      The Casey Demons faced a tough first up task taking on reigning VFL premiers Footscray at Mission Whitten Oval. The Bulldogs, who unfurled their premiership flag pre-game, had 15 AFL-listed players and their top VFL talent available, setting them up for their 15th consecutive win.

      The Demons were fumbly, inefficient, outrun and outgunned all over the field as they went down to the Dockers by 48 points at Optus Stadium in Perth.
