who is saying he wont make it.....pity we didnt chat to Mooney before Rogers traded for him...
It wouldn't have helped because that wasn't what Mooney was saying at the time on SEN, he pumped up Jones tyres live on SEN in an afternoon segment. It was Mooney's advocacy in his role as Jones former KP coach that convinced me Jones was worth a go! If Mooney is saying the opposite he must be reversing over his own errors.
DJC is correct, there were conditions and qualifications put on Mooney's assessment of Jones, but he was so wrong how could anyone take Mooney's judgement on other players seriously?
