— HOLD

Jones posted 56 in the Bulldogs' 6-point away win over Hawthorn — 38 above his 18 BE. At 24 games his role is established and the 62 average at $239k represents outstanding forward value. Cash gen flat at $0 but the scoring consistency (R12 hold, R11 hold) confirms the hold verdict. Hold without anxiety.
