Past Zak Jones - traded 2019, to Saints

[Ticky009]

Jones is a bit a loose cannon, but we need one hot head

Papley is another up and about arrogant player, but not the hot head type,

Jones reminds me of a bull terrier my folks owned. Hated motorcycles for some reason. One day he chased after one, unfortunately the dog was on 2nd floor.
Ran straight off the carport roof and kept going.

Now I am confused. Are these players you woud lose for Jones or Rohan ? Or are you saying we should lose Rohan so we have more money to pay Rohan ? How is Rohan faster than Rohan ? Or do you just think he's faster than you think he is so we should pay Rohan more ? Do we keep Jones or is this about Rohan ?

Obviously I meant jones. You're easy to confuse.

Look laddy, you're entitled to your opinion but you can't expect folks to agree with you when you're spouting nonsense from your posterior. Time to let go. Vous comprenez ?

Look mlady, you can't even bring yourself to refer what I actually said. You imagined for some reason that I wrote something I clearly didn't so you have to resort to abuse to hide your embarrassment.

Rode away into the sunset?

Hit the ground, gave a yelp and almost caught the ruddy motorcycle

Zak is critical to our team.

Kennedy - contested freak. Bull
Parker- strong mark, good goal scorer.Strong in contest.
Hanners (when fit) - strong running high possession two way mid
Heeney- versitile mid, strong contested mark. prototype modern footballer.
Jones- SPEEDY physically aggressive attacking mid.

All our mids bring a different skill set and when they are fit and firing, compliment each other perfectly. Losing jones speed and aggression will leave a massive hole

I agree with a lot of this, except the massive hole bit. It will a leave a hole, certainly... but not like losing Kennedy, Parker, Hannebery, Rampe, Grundy, Buddy or even Heeney or Mills, just a hole. And one that I am confident that we will fill.

Having said all that, I remain confident that he will sign on the dotted line and there will be no hole!

 

[BloodySwan]

I know I'll get panned for this but I'm not too concerned should Jones move on. He has the aggression and skill to become and extremely damaging player, but I also get the feeling he'll become a player who is always teasing us of what he could become and never actually becoming that player. Should he move on we should get a first round draft pick. With that we can replace him with another 20-something disposal outside gut runner - that will match what we currently have with Jones.

The hold is what I was told is that the swans are way off money wise

And there it is.

 

[Tuco]

I hope this Zac bloke goes and Zak stays

Yep. I hear you.

I loved watching Plugger. But that Plugga bloke we recruited in 2002 was a liability.

And that Akker bloke really destroyed Akka's rep post career.

Which Tippett/Tipett/Tippet do we want

lol. I would be prepared to sacrifice Rowan if it meant us keeping Rowan. I mean Rowan is a much better player than Rowan is. Faster than himself. Brings more tackle pressure than himself. We definately need to pay him more than himself too so we can keep him.

It's obvious what he meant. Where is your comprehension?

You won't get panned by me as I completely agree.
I love Zak, he's up there in my favourite half dozen players, but if it came down to only being able to retain one of either Jones or Reid, Reid would be my vote (and he isn't in my top 6 faves) as his position is so much harder to cover.

Apparently was in hospital on a drip on Friday. Explains his quiet game.

If this is true, then it was foolish to play him.

Confirms the rumour he collapsed at training then that was posted here.

Dr's call surely. Could have probably done with a rest, but he played and we won.
Just don't want Horse & co getting back into the habit of playing injured players
that can cost us games. Like the GF for instance.

More like rounds 1 to 6.

Last few games have been quiet so maybe something's been brewing. Could be like a car that starts playing up. Time to trade him in

 

[SwansProudly]

But if Zac collapsed at training on Friday and needed IV why did we play Zac on Saturday night?

To run him into the ground for his next club?

I think we're all a bit confused. You proffer a ridiculous opinion and when it's easily challenged you claim it means something else entirely. Then you have a little tantrum and wail that we don't understand you. Honestly, it's like conversing with a 6 yr old.

I have a 6 year old. They just ask a lot of questions

Is that your medical opinion Dr Ted?

 

[Registered User]

Was he just badly dehydrated? It can happen, especially after being on the piss the night before

I had two six year olds (nice age). One has reached teens and finally stopped asking questions. Now that he knows everything
