On a per game basis he’s 3rd in the AFL for marks on the lead and top 10 in the AFL for marks amongst forwards.

**** I hope he goes on with it, he might not turn into an out and out megastar but he could be the centrepiece
 
And another 14.4km covered. If he starts getting some continuity and some more confidence. He’ll be able to blow up opponents running them all over the ground. He’s got the best work rate of a forward that we’ve had in a long long time.
Very Nick Riewoldt like (obviously not as good yet).

When Two Metre Peter returns we will probably have to decide whether to play him or have a second ruck.
I hope he gets his opportunities to prove himself. His last fortnight has been good.
Jones has completely turned his form around. Showing what we all hoped. Many, including myself, were wondering if he would make it. he always had the promise.

If he continues form I don't think we need a second ruck on 2MP return. Where Jones could be massive is roaming between wing and 50m line. He has already taken some impressive marks down the line in this position. Might still work with Caddy as well if he plays up the ground a bit.
 
Still looks so raw imo. Need to persist with him long term. Seems the type that will peak after his mid 20s. If it’s an 8 years plan and he’s showing signs. Stick with it
