Cox injury

[WakeUpPies]

i heard they are putting steel screws into him and getting him metal arms, we can can him Coxbot

 

[Cruiser23]

Not sure it would be that serious. He played pretty much the whole game after the injury. I would be amazed if it was broken.

 

[kenny712]

Didnt Kerr play the whole of th '05(?) Grand Final with a broken foot? Or am I wrong? I swear I heard it on the news the next day

Stupid Channel 10. All they said was that he is facing an 8 week stint on the sidelines... if x-rays show a break. Thanks for the insight.

Ah shit.........hrrrm if its 8 weeks then i will have to trade out Cox, but for who?

I will wait until the details are 100% certain.

I'm actually super happy i didn't get him last week i was almost going to trade Gilmore for him but traded Masten for Tuck instead.

This has just made my week.

His a champ but lets hope it's 8 weeks. Cause boy would i get a boost on the op.

BTW did anyone see last week RAW TALENT was 341 and is somewhere in the top 500 this week, with one of his 13 teams.

they should change the title to the eagles and 60,000 dream teamers...ah man he better be fine

Maybe they could transplant his nose to the end of his leg and he could use that as a foot.

You must have a very very boring life if a player getting injured makes your week

Yep.

Poor form

Instant Karma...

I know it would be crap at the start but i reckon it would make the rucks a much more interesting field.

ATM most have cox and simmonds. this way more will have to choose from Hill, White ect... more variation

 

[Juddy88]

If he is out will people be keeping him on the bench for up to 8 weeks and playing Kreuzer or trading him to McIntosh(or another ruck)?

Either way I'd have to make a trade

Yeah, that's the way i saw it. Sure it is a blow to lose Cox and waste a trade but now people would have Mcintosh, White, Fraser or someone like that instead of everyone having Cox.

Meanwhile, West Coast has denied Dean Cox has broken his foot, saying he would travel with the team to Sydney this weekend.

 

[Benno_900]

Too late, half the board already traded him ...

 

[encino_]

Sports tonight say he's out for a week only.

 

[weagles_fan]

Max he's out for 1 week which means emergency's should be used.

 

[sante]

So who traded him out?

 

[Kid A]

Why would you trade him out. That's the whole point of having a good third ruckman like Kreuzer.

 

[Petterd4Brownlow]

only a dumb ass would be trading him out.

 

[FandangoDingo]

only a dumb ass would be trading him out.

So who are you going to get? Or have you already made the trade?

I have kruezer eagerly awaiting on the side lines, he's itching to make 100+

on the afl website the eagles have released a statement saying that they will assess him over the next few days but there is no real damage....

it smells of a he will be in the side then late withdrawal. Probably miss this one and another i would think. It just unfortunate that his injury coincides with Trent West getting dropped (Ottens coming back). Probably means im going to have to get Kreuzer this week.... Damn....
