The way some MFC supporters have turned on N.Jones is a 'F'ing disgrace.  Have a look at what Kossie has tattooed to one of his arms.

Jonesy carried the team for so many games in his career, even if he's a bit off the pace, he has earnt the right to be carried through a few by his mates.

For what its worth, I think Jonesy is still contributing significantly to the team's performance.  Often distributes the ball well into clear space in our attacking goal scoring chains and still stands up strong when it counts.  I recall a key moment against the Saints earlier ths season, when the game was in the ballance, with St Kilda attacking and threatening to get off the chain a bit and Jonesy stood his ground, put on a big tackle/ripped the ball away from them as if he was saying "you're not getting through me".

 

Congratulations Jonesy on an awsome 300 games.

 

GO  JONESY and GO THE MIGHTY DEMONS!!

 

Tear the tigers a new one at the MCG on Saturday in front of the Melbourne faithful and the eyes of the AFL world.

    How good would it be if he kicks our first goal tongiht or just kicks a goal and we win. The crowd will go nuts. 

    But well done Nathan, you deserve it after all the crap you have had to go through. You have believed the group would get better and saw something that us supporters couldn't. 

    A win would be great.

    I'm delighted Jonesy experienced an epic win like that on his milestone. Too often these occasions can fall flat (see st kilda v us in the Spud Frawley game).

    I won't lie, I was nervous about him playing against the Tiges but he held his own. Will struggle to stay in the team over the medium term but on last nights evidence i think he warrants his spot against the Roos next week.

    I got a bit emotional seeing him chaired off after the game.

    I don’t think he’s close to being dropped, people here still don’t value leadership and experience which he brings in spades.

    I'm just so happy for him and his family. His 2 kids would have been so proud last night to run out with there dad then see him get chaired off. 

    Nice they got Neita to present his jumper.

    So glad he got there and his experience still helps us in the side. 

    He will be very happy this morning.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt?

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
