52% cbas and 88 sc from 68% tog in the practice match, probably a 100sc game there in normal minutes.
Seems like he will be right up there in their centre bounce midfield rotation switching between there and half back. Also become somewhat of a big body, 191cm and 85kg and I think it was Brad Johnson commenting on Fox Footy that he looks very comfortable with the rigours of inside midfield work. Hes said in interviews that he wants to play midfield
His injury history cant be ignored, but for what its worth I've switched Yeo to him

I can't tell you that, but I did plug in Jones scores from his last 5 years as a defender to see how it would work out. I can't recall the exact numbers, but 3 out of 5 were a 150k profit success, 1 was an OK 130k or there abouts, and 1 was a fail at only 100k profit. They all have some up and down scores so be prepared for a roller coaster.
He was swapping between midfield and halfback, basically going where he pleased, which could throw tagging plans somewhat?
If he's in the guts you play your midfield tagger but then he moves to the flank and your tagger is suddenly a defensive half forward. Meanwhile Pendlebury, Mitchell and Adams are still coal-facing in traffic.
