2005, September 12, The West Australian, Story and photo under headline “Eagles vice captain in a win win situation”.  A photo of Rowan Jones front and Claremont captain Jaxon Crabb celebrate after the last goal at Subiaco on Saturday.

No matter what happens Rowan Jones believes he will be a winner.  Jones is in contention for the West Coast side to clash with Adelaide in the AFL preliminary final.  If not he will play in the WAFL Grand final the following day for Claremont.  Jones shook off a tag last week and had 33 possessions, 4 marks, 9 tackles 11 hard ball gets, eight ruck hit outs and three goals in one of the most complete WAFL performances in 2005.
