Nathan Jones joins SEN for 2022

Jonesy moving into media street this season with gigs on SEN and channel 7, according to the little paper.

 

SEN is set to unveil former Melbourne captain Nathan Jones as its big-name recruit.

Jones, who has dabbled in radio previously with RSN, will be the main voice of Friday night football for SEN.

He is also set to feature in the commentary box for Channel 7 at various times throughout the season.

Jones will balance his media commitments with a new career in property development.

A much-loved figure at the Demons, the 34-year-old was the hard luck story of Melbourne’s premiership win.

He didn’t feature in the senior line-up after round 15 and missed the Grand Final after leaving Perth to be at the birth of his twins.

Jones, who was captain of Melbourne from 2014 to 2019, won three consecutive best and fairests (2012-2014) and became just the second Demon to play over 300 games.

He announced his retirement after 302 games in the lead-up to last year’s grand final.

There will be some tweaks in SEN’s football coverage with AFLW star Daisy Pearce and Hawthorn premiership star Jordan Lewis set to scale back their radio commitments.

    Speaking of Jordan Lewis does anyone know if he's still doing part time work with us?

    I heard Nathan provide special comments in AFLW vs North a few weeks back. I thought he was quite good, so I'll be interested to hear him comment on the mens game, especially with Melbourne not involved, as he did frame a lot in terms of the WDees in my one time hearing him.

    I don't think he has this season Dazzle. i think he was really just a part timer last year, but moved on now

    The irony of this is that Nate was considered a 'lead by actions, not words' type captain. I never considered him a natural talker (he has a high pitched voice) but a footballer who was as honest as the day is long. Shows how much I know as someone saw potential there! 

    I look forward to seeing what he has to offer on SEN. 15 years of experience and being fresh out of the game will provide excellent insight. Hopefully he can maintain that!

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

    • NON-MFC: Round 02

      The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

      As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

    • PREGAME: Fremantle

      After a stunning victory over the Saints in the first round of the Season the Demons head over to Perth to take on the Dockers who choked in their first match against the Cats. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

    • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

      Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
