Coach Eyes v Fan Goggles

[kruddler]

On Jones regardless of whether we can or cannot, would we if we could?

PS; My thought is no.

What I've seen already from Gov tells me no more chaos footballers in the back half, I'm not even happy with Weiters punching the ball so much in 2022!

Would I? yes and no.
Footballing output? Yes.
Putting himself above the club? No.

People fixate on his negatives and overlook the positives. He is 200cm tall, can run, jump, mark, move and kick it like a 6 footer....and occasionally does someone you'd like to take back.....but so does everyone else. His skill set is rather unique and is an upgrade on any alternative we have.
People use to blame him for the run of goals....well he aint there and it still happens, so its not him.

But....He screwed us by retiring...after the draft IIRC...and put us in a terrible position, sure, he is allowed to choose whats best for him, but you want players who sacrifice themselves for the betterment of the team, and he did the opposite.
