I think mature players like Jones are perfect for the sub. Experience to play where required, can play a full game if needed or a burst when some pace has gone from the ground. Can provide support from the bench and doesn't stiffle development like having a younger player on only limited or no game time. If he was sub a few weeks in a row it wouldn't have a severe impact on his residual fitness and less soreness slowing him down.

I like.  The recovery / rest and maybe half a game makes complete rest.  Experience galore as well and knows how to carry out almost any role required.  As you say he'll come on fresh and can go all out in a shortened game (for him) if he does get subbed.

Jeez I hope Ben Brown shuts Dunstall up. 

Dunstall didn't complain when Hawthorn brought in their 3rd tall.
I like Dunstall but he has absolutely no respect for Melbourne whatsoever, and sticks the boots in at every opportunity.

There are plenty out there in the media who would be very happy for Melbourne to sit at the bottom of the ladder forever. Well I've got news for them.

    Seriously what is Dunstall going on about. I've plenty of time for him as an analyst but he's talking nonsense just now. As if you're not going to bring in Ben Brown when he's fit and ready to play

     

    Reasonable test, not convinced on the 10 goal line. Just need to go in and get it done today

    Really? Where? 

    If we knew midweek why didn’t we keep Sparrow free? Surely he’s more deserving of a seniors spot than Baker? If not Sparrow then Chandler?

    We’ve tried hard all year to keep players in similar roles. If our plan is to move Brayshaw or Melksham into Viney’s role, I’m surprised. Sparrow fills Viney’a spot well IMO. 

    Meanwhile the MFCSS is settling in well right now...

    Just out of interest, statistically Jones & Sparrow are pretty much level pegging this season.  Obviously a few more years ahead of Sparrow though.

     

    Kozzie was held off the ball then...

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
