I don't think we would have taken Jones if it wasn't for Waite going, more a move to cover a hole than a targeted poach but it was a dud move as he'll sit on our list for a total of 3 years.

Mick is great mates with Jones' dad.

It would have been better to give Waite his two years. We'd have a competitive, if erratic, key forward this season while the young blokes develop.

Probably played well against us...that used to be our recruiting criteria in years gone by...

The master of disaster had been watching Jones since he was 17.

I didn't know that he had poor endurance

Yeah there was an article at some stage last year on it and it all of a sudden made sense re the ridiculous hype and leg up Mick gave him. I'll try and dig it up when I get home from work.
