AMT is hardly a spud. Surely Essendon has more worthy bottom 50 candidates? 
lol essendon and worthy in the same sentence.AMT is hardly a spud. Surely Essendon has more worthy bottom 50 candidates?

What an ignominious end to a career. Lampooned in a Mofra Bottom 50

I'm running late to the thread this year, but I just wanted to point out the below quote from the Jack Martin post in case it hasn't been posted yet:
It's the subtle digs that sting the most.

Player #33 - Nathan Jones
Pictured: "Alright it's a bald-off, it's a bald-off people"
Nathan Jones has spent most of his career carrying an underperforming, tanking, Melbourne Football Club.
Captain since 2014, Jones didn't play a final until last year. Despite this, he has a better finals record than the entire Essendon football Club since his career began in 2006.
A widely respected player, 2019 was not a great for Nathan. Melbourne reverted to their normal 'odd' year form, where every odd numbered year they are terrible unlike even numbered years where they are only terrible 4 out of 5 years. Look out 2024 season!
His numbers look 'ok' but he is clearly showing signs of age as he hit the magical 31 and a half year old mark aka 'Hawthorn's average player age'. This year he dropped in every statistical category with less kicks, handballs, tackles, goal assists, goals, behinds, inside 50s, and presumably follicles.
I mean, sure as you age you do get a patch of hair growing in that weird space above your bum, but I chose to ignore that. Just like I ignore my grandma's patch. Her patch obscures her tramp stamp - I can only see half of each dolphin now.
The hard part is, he finished the season as borderline best 22 for the team that finished 17th on the ladder, where (unless you stupidly give your future first round pick away to the Crows) you're firmly in the young and rebuilding category. Compounding that is a sense of loyalty to a guy who bled for the club and gave his all through the darkest period in the club's on-field history. Fortunately Melbourne have a recent history of only making good decisions so I'm sure they'll make the right call.
He has been captain for a while now so I assume he had a say in calling off the pre-season camp this year because the players thought it was too hard last year. Before you cry 'soft' and 'flamin' millennials' just remember Adelaide did run their camp and that went about as well as the Stanford Prison Experiment.
In fact you could say that without Jack Watts, Melbourne are now substantially less camp. Ok, I'll see myself out...
Nath, Jonesy, congratulations on a stellar career. Welcome to the Bottom 50 for 2019.

Player #32 - Kyle Hartigan
Pictured: Kyle Hartigan is mobbed by teammates who will all be playing elsewhere next season
Kyle Hartigan is an Adelaide Crows defender from Keilor via Werribee, which qualifies him to be the worst tour guide in Australian history.
Picked up as a mature aged rookie in 2012, Kyle has been a mainstay of Adelaide's defence since the 2015 season. In 2016 he played every game, and even kicked a goal - the only goal of his career, as is to be expected from a lockdown defender. In 2017 he overcame injury and the embarrassment of the 'power stance' to play in the Crows' losing Grand Final. To this day, nobody knows why the Crows decided to name their signature pre-game move after their bitter cross town rivals.
After an average 2018, Kyle survived the Crows pre-season camp and went on to play 19 games in a year that won't be looked back upon fondly by Crows fans. As their side was repeatedly picked apart by teams who realised they haven't changed their gameplan since 2017, Kyle found himself part of a defence that was under siege (and not in a slightly nostalgic Steven Seagal way).
Despite the ball being in the Crows defensive half a lot more, Kyle was down in every statistical category except clangers. At 10 touches and 2 clangers a game he offers about as much rebound as a wet beanbag. Despite half the Crows list wanting to depart, most Crows fans see him as trade bait except for the bit about being worth something at the trade table, and another club considering him.
The likely sales message (borrowed from Maggsy ) might have a little to do with it: 'Tall key position defender that falls over a lot. Tries to punch, but often misses the ball. Looks athletic and has great work ethic in the gym, too bad there aren't dumbbells on the footy field'.
Fun fact: The solitary goal he kicked in his career was against Essendon which is at least as embarrassing as being evicted by a bowls club.
Note: Kyle was married in late 2017 to a woman so far out of his league it almost makes me question my career choice as a fake airline pilot and wish I had of just been a little better at sport.
Football. It works.
Anyway Kyle I hope you get to kick back and enjoy the off-season, welcome to the Bottom 50 for 2019.
