Friday, April 3, 2015 - 7:02 PM - by Chris Pike
THROUGH no fault of his own Peel Thunder captain Brendon Jones will notch his 200th WAFL match on Saturday without a final or State appearance, but he hopes the former will change later in 2015 and the fact he has never played for WA remains bewildering to many. It has been nothing but bad luck that has meant that Jones' career is without a finals appearance given it has been spread between Perth and Peel Thunder both of whom have not played finals either since 1997, or ever. Jones' form over his entire 199-game career at the two clubs has seen him win three fairest and best awards, one at Perth and two with Peel Thunder, and his remarkable consistency and professionalism has seen him only miss five matches since making his debut in 2004 at Perth.

The now 27-year-old spent three years with West Coast and played 13 AFL matches, but even when with the Eagles he still played 10 WAFL games in 2010 with West Perth, 19 in 2011 and 14 in 2012 before then returning to the Falcons full-time ahead of the 2013 season.
