Any interest in Liam Jones of the Bulldogs.

It seems every time he has played against us he has out marked anyone we have put on him.

As another forward option he would be handy.

What do you think?

Big NO, cant cut it for a game at the bulldogs who have sweet F A forwards, so why would we be interested.....rookie at best

Rookie spot or real late pick. In a forward line that actually has some forwards he could do OK as a 3rd tall.

Blooz are keen apparently. Read it in The Age.

if only to stop him playing his one good game of the year against us.

If you aren't an automatic selection as a tall forward in the dogs front half, then you have your limitations. Please, no more list cloggers.
We haven't even got a game into Karnezis yet, this kid at least needs his chance as a half forward before we start looking elsewhere.

He smashed us & did the same in the VFL GF. Played a ripper & kicked bloody straight.

Wants to play for Carlton.

Have to say I didn't realise he was 197cm always thought lack of height was one of his problems. Now he just has to work on his tank and he could be a player. Losing a key forward at 23.5 is bad for the Dogs.

He's a good VFL player. Flash in the pan when playing seniors. Good luck Caaaarlton.

Very hot and cold. A mate who is a doggies supporter said he's the most frustrating player on their list, just marginally ahead of Ayce Cordy.

Happy for the blues to add another very inconsistent player to their list. Danger is though the kid has all the tools and is coming into what should be his prime years. Hope the doggies screw the blues on the deal.

He's a 23 year old KPP. Not many of them are tearing it up at that age. Take Lachie Henderson as an example. The kid's a very good mark and a great size (to my surprise). What he's not, and this is a killer in the modern game, is an elite runner. If he can get fitter he will develop into a very good player.

Whichever way you look at it the Dogs have stuffed up by not holding onto him. They've been waiting so long for a KPP, now they've just let a decent one go at the age where he could possibly blossom as did Henderson. A mistake.

To be honest, I think we should be having a serious look at him. I'd have him over Clark.

Don't think he offers anything more than what Gault could next year.

a shocking kick, can miss some absolute sitters and we already have several guys capable of that.

He has 65 games more experience, and I thought you wanted more baskets?
