Norm Smith Medallist
This will be nil-all draw. Jones is a good VFL player, while most picks in that range are busts.

He's not a leadup player either. I cringed whenever he got the ball outside of scoring range because his kicking is shocking
After seeing Rhys Stanley fetch pick 21 anything is possible. There's no bitterness that we lost him. There's slight annoyance we didn't get great compo for it though.
The champagne cork popping over securing a guy who couldn't get a game in our forwardline and the fapping over a three pronged Casboult, henderson and Jones forwardline is pretty funny though.
Casboult, Henderson and Jones
Vs
Boyd

The loss of your captain, pick 6, 6 million dollars and an entire list headed by bontempelli being disgruntled about a 9 gamers deal......

Odd argument to make. Sans Boyd crameri kicked more goals himself than casboult and jones combined last season. In fact those two combined kicked one more goal than jake stringer as well.
As for the disgruntled player argument, looks like the age got what they wanted. An article quoting an unnamed player agent suggesting the worst case scenario, and that is all the article does, has duped the less intelligent of its readership into thinking that is actually happening.
-Henderson played half his time down back, with jaksch on board he should spend more time forward
-casboult spent half his time in the ruck and roaming along way from goal with good contested marking numbers,
With kreuzer back he should play more forward
-jones struggled for opportunity in the seniors, playing as a third tall he might fit better
All 3 are youngish, coming into their prime as tall targets. Not star studded by have the potential to get the job done.
I'd rather be in our shoes than yours, investing 10% of the salary cap in a bloke that's played 5 games at the cost of your captain and a top 10 pick is risky business.

And I'd rather have our current list than Carlton's.
When your blue chip recruits are a guy who couldn't get a game as a KPF at the Dogs and a couple of NEAFL players you know you are struggling.
Still pining over Jones wanting out of your club..........along with Cooney.......and Tutt......and your captain......your captain, in Griffen.
Doesn't matter because Boyd will do everything and the kids.........always about the kids. Seems we were saying the same about Melbourne 2 years ago.
Cooney was happy to stay but he traded him. Griffen hurt but we made the best of that bad situation.
Jones and Tutt were VFL players for us.
We're talking about the dogs and not melbourne aren't we? The club with the 22 year old and 19 year old that ran first and 2nd in the B&F? The club with the kid that was voted the best first year talent, by the players, by a record margin?? And you're comparing them to blease, watts and tapscott??? Dude. Seriously.800K a year for Casboult and Jones..................says who?
The talk of kids is always amusing when supporters of clubs start putting up every kids name that has played less than 40 games, as future superstars
Remember Blease...Tapscott...Watts...Cook...Scully...Trengove...and even Toumpas.
I'd wait until I saw what the coach (the one you haven't got) has in mind for the team.
Another Neeld or Watters and even the best kids will turn to mush.

And that cash is around the mark for those 2. Bank it. Money well spent?? We'll see.
Welcome to Carlton Liam Jones.
Shouldn't it be welcome to the Bullants Liam Jones?
1 premiership in 50 years compared to 16 premierships I know which club I'd prefer. I'd rather build and have a champion team then a team of champions.

If we are paying them $800k a year then we must be over the cap. There would be about 20 other players getting paid more then them or on similar wage.Jones will be ok for Carlton IMO. And the deal was slight unders for us, but in the scheme of things, is just a massive non issue.
Blues potshots at the Boyd deal are a little off though, considering they have around $800k a year invested in Casboult and jones. I know how id prefer to spend it.
Anyways, good luck to jones. He should improve with some better help up there and Carlton move the ball a lot better than we do as well which gives him more of a chance.
