Background

Jones-Buchanan was born in Leeds, West Yorkshire, England. He is the half-brother of professional rugby league footballers Jodie Broughton, Austin Buchanan and Brooke Broughton.

He began playing rugby at Stanningley ARLFC and progressed through the Leeds Academy signing for the club when he was 15 years old.

Playing career

His Leeds début was on 7 May 1999 against Wakefield Trinity.

Jones-Buchanan played for Leeds from the interchange bench in their 2004 Super League Grand Final victory against Bradford.[7] As Super League IX champions, the Leeds club faced 2004 NRL season premiers, Canterbury in the 2005 World Club Challenge. Jones-Buchanan played at second-row and scored a try in Leeds' 39-32 victory.[8] Jones-Buchanan played for Leeds in the 2005 Challenge Cup Final from the interchange bench in their loss against Hull FC.[9] He played for the Leeds club from the interchange bench in their 2005 Super League Grand Final loss against Bradford.

Jones-Buchanan started in the 2007 Super League XIV Grand Final victory over St. Helens, scoring the final try in a historic 33-6 win at Old Trafford.[10]

In February 2008, Jones-Buchanan helped the Leeds side secure their second world club title as they defeated 2007 NRL season premiers, Melbourne in the 2008 World Club Challenge at Elland Road.[11]

Jones-Buchanan played in 2008's Super League XIII Grand Final victory over St. Helens.[12]

He was named in the England squad for the 2008 Rugby League World Cup.[13] Jones-Buchanan's testimonial match at Leeds took place in 2009. That year Jones-Buchanan also played a key role in Leeds winning the League Leaders' Shield[14]

This was followed by the Leeds club becoming the first team in the Super League era to win three titles in a row as they defeated St Helens once again at Old Trafford winning 18-10.[15]

Jones-Buchanan did not enjoy the same level of success in the Challenge Cup however. Having lost to Hull F.C. in 2005, Jones-Buchanan started all three of Leeds successive losses at Wembley between 2010 and 2012.

He played in the 2010 Challenge Cup Final defeat by the Warrington side at Wembley Stadium.[16][17]

Jones-Buchanan played at second-row for Leeds in the 2011 Challenge Cup Final which was lost to Wigan, and the 2010 Challenge Cup and 2012 Challenge Cup losses to Warrington.

He played in the 2011 Challenge Cup Final defeat by Wigan at Wembley Stadium[18] and in the 2011 Super League Grand Final victory over St. Helens at Old Trafford.[19][20]

However, along with team mates Kevin Sinfield, Danny McGuire, Rob Burrow and Ryan Bailey he continued his period of unprecedented success in the Grand Final. All five players, who had emerged from the club's academy would go on to win six Grand Finals together defeating old foes St. Helens in 2011 [21] before over turning Warrington in the 2012 Super League Grand Final when Leeds made more history by winning the title after finishing fifth two years running.[22] As well as winning back to back titles, the Leeds side had also started 2012 by becoming World Champions for a third time as they defeated Manly at a sold out Headingley Rugby Stadium in the 2012 World Club Challenge.[23]

He played in the 2012 Challenge Cup Final defeat by Warrington at Wembley Stadium.[24][25][26][27]

He played in the 2012 Super League Grand Final victory over Warrington at Old Trafford.[28][25]

In 2013, Jones-Buchanan crossed for a try in the 2013 World Club Challenge against Melbourne but the Leeds outfit lost out to the 2012 NRL season premiers 18-14 at Headingley.[29]

Jones-Buchanan finally got his hands on the 2014 Challenge Cup when Leeds defeated the Castleford Tigers 23-10 at Wembley Stadium.[30][31]

A number of years ago, Jones-Buchanan began an interest in journalism and reporting on sport and Rugby League in general. What began as a blog on the Rhinos official website soon became a monthly column in Rugby League magazine Rugby League World. From here Jones-Buchanan joined forces with childhood friend Alex Simmons on a new TV and radio project called Rugby AM. He joined the Rugby AM team in December 2013 and has been ever-present since, putting in an incredible amount of hard work in his spare time to help Rugby AM grow. When he is not playing or training, it is likely you will see JJB doing some form of work for Rugby AM.[41]

In 2016, Jones-Buchanan took on another new role, that of acting. Jones-Buchanan made his stage début in the Red Ladder Theatre Company production Leeds Lads. Fans had a chance to see Jamie in the play which ran between Friday 17 June 2016 and Saturday 25 June 2016 at the Carriageworks Theatre in Leeds.[42]
