Some interesting things with jones going on from what im told.
Jones is a durable consistent performer who has delivered on the field rather
than hype or what the NRL might do.
Saints have let him slip into his last year without sorting a longer term deal.
On the strength of this somebody has got in his ear.
Saints either have to up the ante or cut him loose.
Given the shocking contract extensions offered to other domestic non stars
signed up well in advance ,who were then either loaned out , dumped or left on
the physio table, Wheeler, Clough, Gardner etc.
Gardner and Clough were both signed up then told there were surplus to requirements
before their last deals kicked in. Bonkers!
Saints have made a bit of a howler in letting it get to this standoff/stalemate.
He should have been signed up before seasons start or offered out.
If if his being a bit of big time Charlie then goodbye, but can't help thinking
Saints have not been smart enough or early enough on this issue.
