Yep you’d think so coz with Drew likely going up to replace SPP our SANFL midfield isn’t looking too strong.

id play him instead of drew, much more upside. Play Houston as mid and jones off the back flank.. he’s too good to play in the sanfl.

He’s the bloke we been crying out for who can shut down small forwards like betts and yet also play on taller players.

the bloke that eventually could play on a dusty type and beat him for power and speed

Good luck to the kid. Excited to see him play.
Hope he has his sights set on becoming a Brownlow winning mid rather than settling for a Hartlettesque career on the HBF...

How pumped must Lachie be

Port supporter growing up, being drafted to your team and then getting the debut nod against the reigning premier at Adelaide Oval in front of a big (covid reduced) crowd prime time Friday Night

Hope he has a cracker of a game!
on his birthday!

Congratulations on your impending debut Lachie! Couldn't pick a tougher opponent, hey?
Yep it's a gulp from me.

Anyway congrats m8 and no need to be nervous because I'll do all the worrying for you. Dimma will probably throw Dusty onto him and drag him deep.

Beginning to wonder if he had a hammy a few weeks back coz I'd have run him back in via the Maggies. Maybe it was a hammy awareness.

Can suck it!
So excited for what Jones will bring over his career. I think he’ll be a favorite across the whole league with his physicality and no *s approach.

A big part of the rise of the front running, knock on, phone box handballing s**t in the game is because there is no longer a physical price to pay. Someone like Jones who can and will legally hurt players for doing that is an asset and a god send.

The Bute Brute. Love him already.
