Yet in the ruck he's more than useful, far better than Casboult, and currently far better than McKay or De Koning. After his last 18 months I'd rate Jones the equal of Rowe in the ruck.
In think people underestimate Liam's ability, he shows great intent, recovery and persistence, it's not his physical attributes that limit him it's experience in those roles.
Why would we chop someone likes Jones after what he's shown in the new roles over the last 18 months, when we've persisted with other players for almost a decade? Wouldn't that be a little hypocritical?
