* JKH was s**t, I remember people saying he was quick just coz he was aboriginal, couldn't have been further from the truth. A slow small forward with below average skills.

He was never a small forward though. His best game for us was in the win v Adelaide in R7 when he played on ball. 16 contested possessions. That’s where he played almost all of his VFL too. Clearly too small to ever crack it as a midfielder on a consistent basis, but he never had the skill set to be a small forward. Definitely knew how to hunt the footy though.
 
Also, Pickles Evans supremacy

Jones would be perfect for today's game, just a running machine. His skills weren't amazing but they are easily good enough for footy in 2022

Youre right that he was a terrible small forward, no pace, no roving off packs ability whatsoever.

He's not hugely different to Langdon, Langdon is playing in an era when wingers are more tank orientated rather than skill based.
 
Loved Matt Jones, happy to take the piss out of himself, and saying how shattered his was to finish behind Dean Terlich in the B&F :tearsofjoy: ... if only the mentally soft today players of today had this sort of attitude. Starts at around 31:10

If there’s one thing I bemoan about our current list it’s that they lack the mental strength and attitude of their 2013 forebears

Nothing to do with the talent level on our list that we won a flag, was all mental strength hey

Are you really suggesting kids today are mentally stronger? I enjoy someone who can laugh at themselves, something that is getting rarer by the day.

Trac would be traded to Collingwood already if he dealth with half of what Jonesy dealt with

How could I possibly suggest that when you’re the most mentally strong person I’ve ever known
