They'll be tempted to rush Kreuzer back but, if the club is fair dinkum, he will be given a couple of weeks with the NBs.
Watson should really get a game this week; Jones has had his six weeks and has given very little.

So would I. Watson's doing well in the NBs.
Jones I think has some ability but he is simply not big enough to be a key forward. Just have in idea where he should play. Chuck him in the NB's and try him in different spots. He's the type of bloke who'd be a shit player with us but somehow the Swans would find a role for him and make him a good player.

Jones is 1.98cm and 98kg (Casboult is 1.98cm and 99kg) so he is certainly big enough. He just doesn't play to his size and that was the knock on him at the Bulldogs.
I'm not giving up on him yet but I don't think he can play anywhere other than as a key forward.

Jones doesn't play to his size or use his mobility once the aerial contest is over... thus he isn't a KP player and he doesn't work hard enough to be a flanker.
Fair dinkum, DJC, blind freddie's guide dog has more chance of contributing across half forward than Jones. Runs to the wrong places, doesn't hold marks, doesn't recover fast enough, doesn't put any pressure on the defence coming out, and is an inaccurate shot of goal. His 6 games have all stunk, he's had more than enough chances. At least Flash the Labrador might hunt the pill when it hits the deck...
I'm no fan of Watson, but if he was encouraged to lead up at the ball carriers he seems capable enough to do that. He is also a fair chance from up to 55 - which is likely to be where he would be shooting from.
DrE is no more... you ok with that harmonica man?

After today, Watson deserves a 6 week run in the seniors replacing Jone's.
Reality always wins in the end.

Make it 8. Give him a chance to get it right. He will kick more than Jones has for us in 6 games without trying. For starters he can kick a football. That is a good start.
This digital world is too much for us insects to understand.

Jones 198? He looks way smaller than Casboult. Not doubting you, just surprised.
