The guy is a million miles from being ready for the top level.....let alone the corky or whatever he appears to have....
nurse him through to 2018.

Ed and Crippa as we know, will be hard to cover given our midfield shallowness (although opposite to depth - doesn't sound quite right :
).I'm hoping Kerridge keeps his spot. IMO his skills have improved this year (work rate remains first class). He can consolidate this if given some consecutive games. The optimist in me thinks he's got more improvement to come.
Really have no idea who will cover Crippa. Well I do but don't think they let you have 23 on the pitch ;D
Go new Blues

Is he still injured? If he is ready, give him a crack in the guts. What is there to lose? I'd back him in.

With every game Jones is making Mick look like more and more of a genius.
Mick also drafted in Cripps, traded out Hampson and traded in Docherty for pick 30 or something.
But Daisy, I hear them say.....................

Williamson is out for another 1 or 2 weeks.

Mick recruited Jones as a forward, tried him for 1/2 of a season in 2015 and gave him the kibosh!

Mick said he was a beast, but no one believed him and called him a spud, me included I might add.
He's part of Mick's legacy for better or worse, at this stage it's looking like better.

He was brought to the club, and we all complained loud and long about him. The club didn't know where he fitted in, whether to keep or delist him etc. Then finally he showed some decent vfl form down back, and now he's playing senior footy.
A bit like the old Irish joke about them inventing the toilet seat, and the English putting a hole in it.
