    Liam Jones' First Outing In Carton Colours

    From News.Com.Au, 27/4/2015:

    "Carlton recruit Liam Jones, well beaten by Mackenzie early, failed to take advantage of the Eagles’ depleted defence and finished wth one goal in his first outing in navy blue."

    According to the stat sheet, worse. Five kicks, two handballs, one mark, no scores.
    More of an In Bruges guy?

    Looking forward to seeing how Caleb Daniel goes today
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

    Ah yes, I see the connection 2D. We swapped Jones for pick 46, then used pick 46 to recruit Daniel. Imagine if this turns into a significant trade win for us! I'm also watching the Cooney for Biggs and Hamilton trade. Higgins for Webb is the other one. Astute trading is one thing that will see us move right up the ladder over the next few years - but it is too early to call these things yet.

    Of course, there is also the Grifter + Marchbank for Tom Boyd.

    Yep agreed. It's to early to make a definitive judgement, but that won't stop me contacting Carlton supporting mates this week if Caleb gets more than ten touches today and letting them know.

    Watched the game from Mandurah.

    Same Tutt, different guernsey. Did his star jumps on the mark every time his opponent had the pill (which seemed quite often), ran around like a headless chook trying to get a kick, and when he did get it he kicked it along the ground. To be fair his first grubber found Tom Bell who slotted a goal for the Blues.

    Ditto for LJ. Led to the ball by MacKenzie until he went off with a suspected ACL injury, had no 2nd efforts and kicked a lucky goal off the ground. To be fair the conditions didn't suit tall marking forwards, as none of the tall forwards did much when the ball was bombed long into the forward line.

    Apparently Malthouse was not able to make it to the match due to family circumstances. So, Liam Jones will get to fight another day.

    A lot of our Bulldog members seem to take great delight in a poor performance by an ex player. I'm more focused on how the team goes today.

    And that is your perogative G. I on the other hand enjoy the occasional indulgence in some schadenfreude.
