Career

The younger brother of former West Coast Eagles player

Tasmanian Devils in the VFL for 2006, Jones managed three consecutive games for the Kangaroos in rounds 11–13, but these were his last games for the club as he was de-listed at the end of the season.[4]

Jones was recruited by the

interstate football against the Victorian Football League (VFL), kicking two goals. After spending the first three rounds of the season in the WAFL, kicking 15 goals for Claremont, Jones played three more games for West Coast from rounds 5–7, kicking five goals, but severely sprained his ankle at training, missing a month of football.[7] He returned to football at WAFL level in round 14 against Peel Thunder,[4] but was unable to break back into the Eagles' line-up due to the form of Quinten Lynch, Ben McKinley and Ashley Hansen. He was de-listed by West Coast at the end of the season.[8]

Remaining with Claremont, Jones emerged as a full-forward in 2009, kicking 77 goals to be the club's leading goalkicker, also winning the Bernie Naylor Medal as the competition's leading goalkicker. He continued this form in the 2010 season, kicking 85 goals, including two eight-goal hauls and one haul ten-goal 27-possession game against Peel Thunder, to again win the Bernie Naylor Medal. He was also selected to represent the WAFL against the VFL in the 2010 state game, kicking four goals.[3] He missed the first games of the 2011 WAFL season with a hamstring injury,[9] but returned to the side for the latter half of the season, kicking 41 goals in 13 games, which included the 2011 Grand Final win over Subiaco.[3] The following season, Jones kicked 45 goals from 20 games, and again played in Claremont's premiership side.[10]
