Well Harry is out of contract and had a poor start to the year and now out for the season just about. So no big dollars coming his way for next contract. His manager would be ■■■■■■
Port Adelaide were going to pick him as a first rounder also needing a kpf
But someone got through to them weren’t expecting, Georgiades IIRC
Twomey had an article/vid piece on behind the draft
….
Jones came in and showed plenty. The continual ankle injuries no one can predict and not the clubs fault (certainly not the recruiters). And now this back issue which maybe is on our S&C team.
From what I’ve been told from people at the club some have questioned his professionalism- does he prepare himself in a way to give him the best chance of success as an AFL player? Without much more to go on ……this may include his rehab from injuries, the work he puts in outside of the club and overall attitude/desire …….he’s mikes behind on fitness /conditioning you’d expect from a guy in his 4th year with 4 preseasons under his belt
This just sounds like the same drum you’ve been beating since you said you wouldn’t pick Jones until he got a haircut.
LTIs every season would tend to stifle development and enthusiasm.
We know 2 things about Harry 1. he can play; and 2. he gets injured a lot.
We won’t know much more until 2024 when we will find out if he can get through a preseason and play footy each week.
