David King actually stated to the media 2 years ago that JON was to be the surprise packet after the pre season that he had completed.
This was also said by David at a Coterie Function before Round 1
Correct weight jack...I was at the Club 80 function that night held at Birdie Num Nums in Carlton...said JON was flying...
As for people not remembering anything special of JON....correct me if i am wrong buy ddint he kick the winning point against the bombers at a Dreamtime game (possibly his first year/first game).
Lovely kid, with a great attitude. I wish him all the best at WCE. I hope they can develop him, in ways that we never seemed to be able.
Lets hope we dont repeat this mistake with the current crop.
He did kick the winning point in that game.
It bearly scraped in for a point .
Same game Dean Polo was BOG and won the Glass Booomerang
