Jones' Nickname

Had it suggested to me that" The Jones Boy " has been tagged with "Casey" as in the old TV series Casey Jones (Steam Locomotive Driver). Seems to fit well too. I think part of the theme song included the words "a steamin' and a rollin' " Go Jonesy, you are a precious commodity to the MFC.

"SHREK"

"Chunk"

I've heard "Rock Monster" as well, gee he's a little ripper of a player, even if he is bald.

On the coverage today they showed Carrazzo shaped to hit Jonesy and the little bald one didn't even flinch, he actually looked at Carrazzo as if to say 'Go on, I dare ya'.

 

any fans of the TV show "The Shield" would agree Nathan Jones is Vic Mackie no doubt about it!

otherwise i refer to him as the manchild.


SHREK!!!! You are kidding - I think he is one sexy beast! Nothing Shrek like about him whatsoever.........

THE BALLAD OF CASEY JONES

This version was considered by Janie Jones, Casey's wife, to be the most accurate representation of Wallace's original version. Mrs. Jones spent much of her life refuting some of the vulgar references other versions made about her husband.

Come all you rounders if you want to hear

A story 'bout a brave engineer,

Casey Jones was the rounder's name

"Twas on the Illinois Central that he won his fame.

Casey Jones, he loved a locomotive.

Casey Jones, a mighty man was he.

Casey Jones run his final locomotive

With the Cannonball Special on the old I.C.

Casey pulled into memphis on Number Four,

The engine foreman met him at the roundhouse door;

Said, "Joe Lewis won't be able to make his run

So you'll have to double out on Number One."

If I can have Sim Webb, my fireman, my engine 382,

Although I'm tired and weary, I'll take her through.

Put on my whistle that come in today

Cause I mean to keep her wailing as we ride and pray.

Casey Jones, mounted the cabin,

Casey Jones, with the orders in his hand.

Casey Jones, he mounted the cabin,

Started on his farewell Journey to the promised land.

They pulled out of Memphis nearly two hours late,

Soon they were speeding at a terrible rate.

And the people knew by the whistle's moan.

That the man at the throttle was Casey Jones.

Need more coal there, fireman Sim,

Open that door and heave it in.

Give that shovel all you got

And we'll reach Canton on the dot

On April 30, 1900, that rainy morn,

Down in Mississippi near the town of Vaughan,

Sped the Cannonball Special only two minutes late

Traveling 70 miles an hour when they saw a freight.

The caboose number 83 was on the main line,

Casey's last words were "Jump, Sim, while you have the time.

"At 3:52 that morning came the fareful end,

Casey took his farewell trip to the promised land.

Casey Jones, he died at the throttle,

With the whistle in his hand.

Casey Jones, he died at the throttlle,

But we'll all see Casey in the promised land.

His wife and three children were left to mourn

The tragic death of Casey on that April morn.

May God through His goodness keep them by His grace

Till they all meet together in that heavenly place.

Casey's body lies buried in Jackson, Tennessee

Close beside the tracks of the old I.C.

May his spirit live forever throughout the land

As the greatest of all heroes of a railroad man.

Casey Jones, he died at the throttle,

Casey Jones, with the whistle in his hand.

Casey Jones, he died at the throttle,

But we'll all see Casey in the promised land.

pop-eye

 

nickname should be "Not too distant champion" this guy just goes and goes and goes. He is super impressive. Rate him extremely highly. Quickly becoming a favorite player of mine. And dont bag the baldness its a solar panel for a sex machine.


I hear "Jones Boy" often yelled... then I say to my self "Glen Lovett Jr" under my breath....

I go with the traditional Jonesy, but my brother and one of my mates (both non Melbourne supporters) refer to him as the Chemo Kid, there was a picture of him and Neitz in the paper earlier this year and they reckon he looked like a kid who had luekemia.

any fans of the TV show "The Shield" would agree Nathan Jones is Vic Mackie no doubt about it!

Is he the bloke who plays Ben Grimm [aka The Thing] in the Fantastic Four movies?

Triple M call him "mini chief", in reference to Jason Dunstall.

  • 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.
