Nathan Jones

Featured Replies

 

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

  • The Clayton Oliver Thread

    Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
