agree

was very good. also nice to see our midfielders kick goals. If this is our new game plan, apart from the first 10 mins of the final quarter, i like it.

I think you'll find its the same, players are just more confident, run harder, and do the simple things more often.

go Brad!

i am big enough to admit that my first thoughts were off the mark. At the moment he looks to be improving at a rapid rate. Still has a bit to improve but he is getting better each game

Love the way he goes about his footy.

I am soory for doubting you now I what MSG to say it.

saintsRrising · Sat 12 Jul 2008 1:02am

Tonight I feel was his most polished game for us yet.

For my money he is a clear leader in this years Most Improved Player Award.

Was solid tonight. Had a shakey start with his first two touches resulting in turnovers through putting team mates under pressure but he was ok after that. He's still not a player that the opposition would worry about though.

Well I guess from you that is a positive review of CJ....but I really do think you see him through biased eyes.

I was critical of Jones last year, but I am a massive fan now. His disposal will always be his weakness but it does seem to be improving and t really looks as if he has been working hard on it. I see similiarities between him and Priddis and see improvement in him to the point where I think next year he could be averaging 20-25 touches a game. While, some may argue that he won hut you all that much, anyone who wins that much ball becomes a good player for the team. Furthermore, he can add a lot with his run and carry and defensive pressure. I am really liking the look of him now and into the future.

Am happy to report Ive always been a fan.

Hes modern day Andrew Thompson WITH speed.

Sorry MSG you know squat and are a tool.

Jones has 1 thing going for him you cant teach players HE KNOWS how to find the footy.

he had a great second quarter, and think he has improved heaps.

the great thing is if the opposition ignore him then it looks like that he is now capable of punishing that. good sign.

Very impressed tonight, was very good. Kid has one hell of an afterburner

snoopygirl · Post: # 601543Post **snoopygirl** » Sat 12 Jul 2008 2:05am

Been on his bandwagon since day one. Happy to move over to let more people on.

The OtherThommo · Sat 12 Jul 2008 2:11am

Clearly works his ring off and tries so hard. All power to him.

markinUSA · Post: # 601570Post **markinUSA** » Sat 12 Jul 2008 2:57am

He's a goer, gives 100% always, has speed, and is improving all the time. Good on ya Clint!

SaintWodonga · Sat 12 Jul 2008 3:09am

He's playing well. Both he & Mini are doing great at the moment.

I've been sitting next to you since day one also Snoop. He should never have been dropped after the Sydney game - He's in my starting 22 anytime this year.

I have been at the front of the bus. Since i saw him at the 07 Intraclub game running along the wing (quite quickly) and a flash of lighting cracked over his head in the distance. Memorable moment he look pretty handy that day so i got behind the wheel on the bus.

He just needs time to develop his game to AFL style.

Vigour and a passionate assault on the contest is great to see from this player.

Any lack of skill is easily made up for.

bigcarl · Post: # 601653Post **bigcarl** » Sat 12 Jul 2008 10:22am

a real goer. very impressed with his game.

still havent seen a more average kick of the football, or technique when kicking the football, but his endeavour, pressure and hard work is second to none. he is exactly what we need in our half forward line.

keep it up cj.
