How far off is Jones?

 

[faible]

How far off is Jones?

Last injury update the club said TBC, so I'm assuming it's a while.

Or he's become Tom Bellchambers.

TBC is code for 6-8!!

Video from the injury report;

Interrupted preseason, building him up over the next couple of weeks and playing footy in a few weeks.

So probably more 3-4 than 1-2 as suggested by AFL.com.au.

Also, my boy

Sounds that way yeah

They said a couple of weeks, maybe ANZAC Day?

I would imagine that he would need a r un in the VFL first?

If so he would need to be back next week in the VFL, and come in with only one game under his belt, which might be tough.

Yeah, probably Collingwood, Footscray and Box Hill in the VFL potentially then bring him in.

While unavailable this week, exciting young forward Harrison Jones is also nearing a return from an ankle injury.

The 20-year-old broke through for his AFL debut last season, playing 16 games and booting 20 goals.

"'Jonesy' is starting to get a good bank of work in now. He’ll integrate back into main training this week and then the plan will be to build him up, so hopefully we’ll see him in the next couple of weeks," Murphy said.

[ghostdog]

According to Rutten will get minutes in the VFL this week

 

[Shane Heard]

Pray to the footy gods he gets through ok.

 

[Lore]

Has got a nice block in over the last month, getting closer, he's a test for this week so if he gets through skills this week the aim will be to join main training across the week and then it'll be limited minutes [in the VFL] if he ticks off all those boxes.

Harry Jones​

Key stats: One goal, 11 disposals, three marks, three tackles

"Harry was classy, especially early. He's a fantastic team player and set up Baldwin with blocks and just being a total pro. I love the way he plays. He flew for his marks and launched at the ball. His goalkicking was a little bit off, but that'll come with more practice. It was a good first game for him and he got all the running numbers up that we needed him to."

Very heartening to hear. We have to be smart & build him up for a few weeks & hopefully get him in for a few games before the bye.

 

[Runk]

Had a good first half in the magoos. You could tell he was puffed in the second but he still worked.
I'd imagine the club just want him now to build on that. Good signs.

Harry with a sore ankle again. Sad.

The ****

 

[yodellinhank]

So he pairs well with Baldwin? Bring them in.

 

[blitzer]

The fu**

He was off the ground for a bit but then came back and kept playing. So Jones is probably fine and will in all likelihood play again in the VFL this week I'd presume.
