a 30 possie game for us is a disaster, 30 chances for that indecisive simpleton to murder!

Lyon legacy right there.
I'm with you…
15 possessions, including 10 hospital passes and missing an open goal from 15 metres out.
Working hard, but nearly every disposal is a genuine liability.
watch a bit of footy do you dragit?
no, I didn't think so!
at half time the afl website show jones with a disposal efficiency of 90.5%

maybe you would like to define liability? could it be you as a supporter?
I'm watching the game tezza, are you?

His disposal has improved as the game has gone on, no doubt.

Early on a lot of his disposals were pure hospital…

Disposal efficiency doesn't show whether a pass puts a team mate under pressure or not. The stat on it's own says that Jones is better than Ablett (if you are not watching the game).

Good on Jones though, having a real dip and we have no better available tonight.

Been very happy with the older fellas - jones, Geary, Ray, and roo. Can't believe some ar criticising jones - we'd be well behind without him dominating the centre.

Nathan Jones is the new Joel Selwood… continually diving head first into legs and receiving frees.

How about the umpires give Nate Jones another free for leading with his head?!

Really happy with some things, some players

Dunstan, Saunders, Curran in particular

Disappointed by Savage, unimpressed by Delaney...

Bronx cheers for Maister are poor, the bloke is struggling, but he is certainly trying.

More of an Essendon thing to do IMO.
