Player Watch Mason Cox

[Mostfamousclub_Pies]

If he stays in the team for the next 4 games, he will play his his 100th game on the same day as Sidebottom plays his 300th, assuming Sidebottom also plays the next 4 games.
That would be a great occasion indeed. Unfortunately it will be at Marvel and not the MCG. At least it’s in Melbourne though.

Without jinxing either of them that seems likely. Both deserve their own occasion I reckon.

gees if that lady can whisper over his shoulder, she’s huge, would scare the shit out of me too

I watch all matches with a watchafl subscription included in my overseas membership. Also gets you access to just about anything fox footy has ever shown.

Same, and getting WatchAfl through a Collingwood membership saves me a few dollars. Love it.

I've been hot and cold on Mason throughout his career, but he honestly makes me happy everytime I see him play for us.

I want to see him have a huge impact for us coming back this week.

He has cemented his spot in my all-time pies cult hero team for life!

 

[magpies42]

Mason’s kpi for tomorrow is not goals or hit outs but the number of intercept marks the opposition get. Unless they am handle him or illegally block him he always get a hand to the ball. Big in!

 

[lenny&carl]

Yeah I've watched the Pies in BBK. My thai gf was not impressed.Unlike my Filipino wife tho.

I bet you have fun juggling those two. BTW, Phnom Penh is a top place.

I'd be keeping Mason expectations low today. Just bring a few to ground big fellar and make the job easier for our other forwards

Agreed - realistically he's not going to take contested marks in the conditions - hopefully he manages to keep his feet under him and gets through with no issues.

I’m keeping expectations high. He will be better than Kreuger.

( in wet conditions we might even find he does a little extra ruckwork)

He should at least be able to play out a quarter, so much more valuable than Kreuger

 

[coolidge1000]

Great return from the big man have been a fan on him for a while but he was the dominant ruckman on the ground and I don't think it was a coincidence that we got on top in the middle when he was in the rick

 

[manicmagpie]

We were noticeably better with Coxy in the side, and that’s what matters.

He changes the entire dynamic of our team. He gets the crowd going and he played with real passion and zest today. Great return Coxy!
Wait till Darcy Cameron comes back in.

 

[Jelly Bean]

Was good.

 

[pz5151]

Frampton starts to look dangerous with Cox in the side giving him freedom to drift forward. It’s hard to see Howe fitting back in the side once Cameron is back and Frampton plays more as a defender.

Are we better off with Frampton/Cox than Cameron/Cox?

Serious question here, but I don't feel Cameron is a lock.

Cameron is 100% a lock. He was playing excellent before injury

 

[pablo disco bar]

Sign him for 2 more years

Coxy may retire on top of his game to pursue media opportunities

Very intelligent and skilful man

Frampton is nowhere near the tap ruckman that Cameron is and is slightly inferior as an around the ground target. Frampton should go down back once Cameron returns.

Cox likely only has a year or two left so the transition to Cameron/Frampton may not be that long away

 

[Looney]

The pleasing thing is there now seems to be a better understanding between Cox and our midfield at ruck contests. We are now getting consistent clearances at ruck contests. Good signs

 

[Sub_Zero]

he seems bigger and stronger this year, not sure if I am just imagining things though lol

Cameron was in all Australian form before he hurt his knee. Your question is insane.

Cox could go on for another 4 years. He won't get shorter. He started footy late so he isn't as banged up as some and only started rucking in the past 2 years.
