Wouldn't want to go to Kittyland without Pig ?

Last time we played them they looked pretty spineless

We luv ya Charlie....bvgger what the propagandists spout ??? Go you good Dee

Sorry to single you out Jaded...as I don't mean to. However the wording of your last sentence resonates as it's seemingly a theme among many. I speak of the idea that Jones, having carried the burden , as it were, for many seasons, is now afforded the most golden of tickets ? Is this what people seriously suggest ? He did ALL that ...so get off his back when he's having a less than brilliant patch ? Bernie lowered his colours...back to the Magoos , but there's in reality no checking possible with Nathan. I sense he's carrying a niggle again. If we're really to consider ourselves ( MFC) a professional outfit...all are accountable... equally... surely.

My.... aren't we clever at Melbourne !!!??? Memo to Mr Pert.....have a good looky look at the FD when you get here ??

It's now a game of 'blink'

All we need to do is channel the Dees of '87 ( Except that bit with #11 ??)

Just think... another preseason or two... another 25-50 games !!! This lad could really be something

Can we clone him ? About 4 would do ????

Did you win Lotto as well ? ???

You are among the most hypocritical condescending on this forum. You don't like tomatoes...you redescribe them and call them potatoes. Someone wants to discuss a player...but not in your manner of approval then we're all potting them. Quite frankly what you consider worthy or otherwise is not the measure of what everyone else might. You don't want to discuss Jones...in his own right. Fine. But please cease with your almighty idea anyone really cares or that YOU are the arbiter of this or anything here. We are a group. And at the moment the group is discussing Jones...in any number of views. You're welcome to contribute or not. Not because I or anyone says or thinks so...but because it's a group discussion. Feel free to leave it

Yes the subject is Jones...the context of the op used that game as a point of reference but any reasonable discussion will go beyond that for balance. The topic is Jones It's not hard to see. Everyone else has. Cheers

30/7/2011 Geelong ...at home... always a scalp

I see your point...but the Kitties in their own soiling playpit are a daunting adversary.

That's your vote.. that's ok Others think it's warranted...as we're discussing Jones...not the Dogs game..that has its own parameters surely. Just as we might discuss any player in isolation...so do we Jonesy here. I don't see a problem in that.

I'm not thinking this is anything good ...either way.

Ah...the crux. It's not that anyone particularly suggested dropping him atm....as I see it. It's more that he's seen by many as not being subjected to the same litmus. This is where it gets murky.

Obituary ?? More just spectating a reality. No player is beyond scrutiny. Deep down we all just want the best players we have available ...playing. I'm not a fan of players taking the field injured or I'll. I've never known anyone to heal or recuperate whilst exerting strenuously. Playing form players is I'd rather have thought crucial at this time of the year. How do you see Jones currently RPFC ?

Well..it's a double barrelled affair really.Beat Geelong..we take a scalp..we besmirch a rival...we continue on our giddy heady way. Lose....hmmmm...a wheel falls off.

Indeed. No one dare drop the ball ..sts

I'm just clarifying things for those not of the Manor

Mr Manor...I actually concur. It's not a head many seek in reality....just that he is but mortal. And like the other mortals on a team sheet should be judged upon merit...and well-being. Should he suffer form lapses ...or be set upon by a lurgy...he must be judged as an other. It appears to this bench warmer that to suggest such reasonable direction is to have ones card marked ' off to the gallows' He's not the Messiah you know

Won't have played enough games and taken the choccies. He'll be similar..imho...to Hogan. Obviously good...but that AA possie will go to someone (s) with better,longer, more consistent seasons.

No Strangely the tenet of many a post.

Totally agree @H_T The blubbering rhetoric that bubbles to the frothy top is lamentable. Fancy wanting the very best for the club !! Every dog has their day but they don't last forever. Time rumbles past.
