Nathan Jones

played a bit of junior footy with him, he was playing in an older age group than he should have been, still starred.

will be awesome, is awesome! first half especially was sensational.

His disposal wasn't the best today. But i loved his endeavor and attack on the ball. Hopefully he will become the next Viney (with damn good skills as well).

 

Jones has more mongrel in him than West which is great, think West has more innate ballwinning ability though, but the potential is there for Jonesy to be a great player.

Nathan Jones born 20.1.88. Hasn't come close to his 21st birthday yet. Going to be a long term player and a gun for the MFC. A Greg Williams reincarnation in the making.


From my perspective, the single most important aspect of football is winning the hard ball. Nathan Jones is going to win us many a hard ball over the next decade. Well done Jonsey, you are proving worthy on the number 2 jumper.

just pray he doesn't end up at st kilda

He supported the Saints so don't even suggest that!!!!! Demon forever!

 

that's why i said it

Jones won't be going anywhere.

Seriously, we just need a midfielder with good pace who can break the lines (Please throw the book at one during trade week), because we already have Beamer, McLean, Sylvia and Jones in our future midfield, with possibly Bate and Bell.

On second thoughts, could Bell (In a few years obviously) be the line breaker we need? We all know he is very quick and a great kick when he doesn't start thinking about it, also very strong and courageous, what are everyones thoughts?

I'm not proposing take him out of the backline anytime soon, but in a few years time could he play permanent midfield?


i reckon his ball use is good enough, he is certainly quick enough with a good engine, and his tackling is one of the best in the team, so i don't see why he couldn't be a midfielder if that's what danners wants

? We all know he is very quick and a great kick when he doesn't start thinking about it, also very strong and courageous, what are everyones thoughts?

I was really impressed with him today, especially in the last quarter when he provided some good run in the middle and finished it off with some great passes in to the forward 50.

Hasn't come close to his 20th yet I think you mean. Think you got your maths wrong, he's 19 turning 20 next year! :P

And yes, he is a gun. :D

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • POSTGAME: Fremantle

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
