All evidence points to Armfield IMHO. This could be his swan song.
White out Armfield in. Better matchup than Boeky or Cunners.

Jones' benefit would be greatly diminished if marking isn't going to be a significant factor.
However, having said that, Jones leap in the ruck is significant. He's more than capable of jumping over Sandilands from a short run up. Something that Kreuzer and Casboult won't achieve. If Jones could break even with Sandilands and then run off him he would be more than useful.
Was thinking along those lines myself LP. Maybe we are planning to gang up on Sandilands and run him off his legs?

I think Jones should play regardless of the weather. He's earned his call up. I think they took Armfield along in case Gibbs doesn't get up plus Armfield has family in WA.

I'd definitely like to see Jones in the starting 18.

What world are we in that everyone is calling for Liam Jones to be in!!
Fair play to the lad to work as hard as he has.
Culture.

It shows that our list is still full of holes.

Interchange = Graham, Daisy, Cunningham, Williamson.
No go for Jones.

So much for selecting on form alone! Jones & Boekhorst have both been well ahead of Cuningham on form. Gee I hope Cuningham can do something at senior level that he hasn't been able to do in the seconds - be consistent and assert himself physically in the contest. Stranger things have happened.

You know? That futuristic world where Trump is President and Hanson is P..... :o
Hang on almost there ;D
Good Luck to Jonesy, he could have spit the dummy playing in the 2's all the time ala Laidler :
Hope he goes well if he gets the call up.
Edit.. Doh!
