He is the best in the comp at flailing his arms about when there's the slightest contact on him in the ruck and duly getting a free. He's a champion player that doesn't need to be doing this.

Glass gets away with a lot more, in fact I think that all of Glass, Fletcher and Scarlett tend to get away with a bit of holding.

Is this what bigfooty has become? The main board clogged with conspiracy theories and whinge-fests. He does get some frees for ruck infrigements that look dubious at best, but is he the only one? Hardly. A champion player who takes the ball at the highest point, hence he milks frees.
Agreed, a very frustrating player and an umpires pet.
I was pissed when North played WCE in round 6.
He kept holding Mcintosh out of ruck contests yet getting a free for it.
He always gets cheap free kicks from the goal-line as well.

We probably wouldn't of won, you guys had more scoring shots.
Alot of goals came from questionable free kicks though.
Oh well we have rematch in Hobart soon, away from Perth they might be vulnerable.

I complained about the soft free kicks Cox gets after the West Coast v St Kilda game and got howled down by West Coast supporters.
He is a great ruckman/forward and a lot of his free kicks are probably justified but he also seems to get a lot of soft frees that other players don't get and also tries to milk them more than most other players.

AJ did not even have the ball and had a knee in his face when called for holding the ball, Jammo has his arms pulled away from him and from that he ran into goal, The Cox free was fair but never paid at the other end no matter what.
Be honest and admit you got a good shake, its not like you did it or that i can do any thing about it. It does not matter now anyway.

That HTB decision was a joke, but it was one of many stupid HTB decisions we have to put up with these days. Directly in front of goals, just makes it worse.

Don't know why, you are always so fair and unbiased when it comes to West Coast and umpires.

With Cox the free kicks are technically there, but he certainly makes sure that the umpire sees it.
