He's 32. Steve Price is about to turn 35 and is still an international prop. Darren Lockyer is about to turn 32.

According to all reports Stacey has been playing fantastically in the Warriors 2 trial wins.

Pryce plays 30-40 minutes a week - Lockyear plays half a season and both have been playing consistently in the NRL for the past three years. Jones hasn't played any rugby for twelve months!!!

Jones is expected to play 80 minutes a week - control the attack in the super fast physical NRL - it doesn't add up to me - either the league isn't as fast ans physical as some on here would have you believe or Jones simply wont perform.

What was surprising was the progress the Catalans made after his departure - Jones struggled in SL ao it will be interesting to see how he goes






Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.
