No he didn't!
Mooney actually said that Jones may do OK as a third tall playing alongside Casboult and Henderson. He implied that Jones doesn't have the ability to be a key forward.
Of course, I could be missing some secret message concealed within Mooney's statement
“Why don’t you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don’t you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don’t you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?” Oddball

I vaguely recall Mooney commenting that he thought the drafting of Jones and Tutt was an "interesting" (i.e crap) decision.

Mooney said Jones has no tank and can only play in bursts and doubted he could make it as a league player...this is the same bloke who mentored Jones at the Dogs
who is saying he wont make it.....pity we didnt chat to Mooney before Rogers traded for him...

Mooney isn't Robinson Crusoe. Barry Hall, who was Jones' training partner, said much the same, as did Hawthorn's opposition analysis dossier. It really was an inexplicable decision. However, it seems that mad Mick had more say in it than random Rogers.
