I have to admit I had a fear something would click for Liam (from my POV not on him personally). But after 6 games, he's averging one goal, 3 marks and 6 touches a game. He's actually gone backwards this year statistically which I didn't think was going to happen.
I think credit must go to our list manager for being prepared to trade him and getting top 50 pick. I didn't think pick 43 was the high water mark for trading, but again I'm wrong and our lads in LM got it right.

Re: Liam Jones' First Outing In Carton Colours
Have said Jones was crap for years and copped shit for my view.
I was right.The fight is here; I need ammunition, not a ride.

Re: Liam Jones' First Outing In Carton Colours
Dropped within 7 games when Kruezer, Casboult and every other tall has done nothing. Such a waste of raw talent, but obviously this caper isn't for him at this level. Again, our team must be saying 'no returns' every time Carlton offers the trade back in bizarro world. Originally Posted by Remi Moses

Re: Liam Jones' First Outing In Carton Colours
Nice to see Carlton embracing the rebuild - Boekhurst, Buckley, Graham, Whiley and Clem Smith all dropped. Plodders like Carrazzo and Simon White back in.
