[Beerfish]

Contract Status: Out of contract 2024
My Boy Draft 2024: Pick 6, Rick Ross

 

[Zach Package]

Apparently lankos has agreed to an extension

how many inches is he getting?

 

[VelvetSledge]

how many inches is he getting?

As many as he wants

how many inches is he getting?

He needs extra girth not inches .

 

[Blind Turn]

He needs extra girth not inches .

It’s not the size that matters but how we use him.

At the moment he fills a hole out wide and it seems to be his MCG spot. He covers that area back and forth over and over and over again. He seems to have amazing endurance which is what the fans want. He only stops when the climax comes which is a tribute to his understanding of the game.

I'm stoked to see he had played himself back into form and the injuries don't look like they are hampering him anymore

Hopefully the days of getting pulled out early are now behind him.

Look, so long as he has enough protection in-game I don’t think there’ll be any need to pull him out early.

Good. Hopefully keeps him in the game for longer, nothing more disappointing than him going off prematurely.

Fits in the team pretty well as a your classic Ruck/Forward.

Nice mix that he can play a more medium HHF role and has good pressure.

Finding a mix with Caddy CHF Jones Wing Cox Ruck/Forward has been one of the best parts of the season for me as it means we can fit all our talented talls at the same time

Weird that he was 200cm when we drafted him but hasn't since put on a cm or two. He still seemed to be able to win taps, even double-handed. I'm interested to know how well he jumps.

I remember him taking a screamer during his first preseason in an intraclub game.

He can pinch hit to plug a hole out the back too.

Sorta makes you feel for these guys - The coxless 4.


. When there is no cox, it is referred to as a "coxless four".

Less likely to need cover when he plays that role too unless we’re concerned that he hasn’t been tested in a while.

Yet sharing your cox is preferred?

I think we’ve jumped the shark on this one….

I like what Cox is doing for us right now - but I fear his ability to perform as he gets older. Can see him struggle to get up for the big game as he ages.

thankfully there’s medication for that particular issue

You totally had that ready before we even drafted him!

I got aroused just writing it. Phew!

Is it on the prohibited list for athletes?

 

[Godzke]

Is this thread about Nik Cox or an advertisement for Pilot?

 

[Old Campaigner]

It can be both

 

[TheFrenchCut]

He may be 200cm tall but the bar is incredibly low for this dude. Does zero damage with his disposal, rarely makes use of his supposed speed or height at his position, and while he's improved at the contest he's still a bit of a turnstile without the pill.

 

[Who are ya]

Absolute cat, delist or trade if anyone’s dumb enough to take him
