Well his uncle is a horse trainer and he does horse riding lessons.
I am a Collingwood 6 footer and my worse experience in life was being president of a horse and pony club.
The politics in one of those is shocking!!!
we don't eat our own at collingwood we just allow them to foul our nest.

I'm like a sack of potatoes on horseback, my grandfather looked like he was part of the horse. :?

My son hit 183cm when he was 12, finished up around 186 so I can still call him shortarse too. 8) :wink:

^ Cam, excellent analysis there. That is really strking, and it probably explains Trav's poor percentages very well. I wonder if they can fix it ?

This may have been already answered. As a Rookie how many games can Cox play? I thought if you had a player on the LTI he could stay in finals included. We have three on the LTI at the moment.

I'm pretty sure international rookies can play all year including finals. They come under separate rules to normal rookies.

Mark my words, the big tall Texan Cox is a future version of our own Paul Salmon, he could well be that good. Hes only known the game for two years, and look at him already, like a duck too water. Bring it on. !

ONLY good thing Watto ever did I reckon. Didn't he break salmons leg at Vic Park, or was that Mick Gayfer, I cant recall. :P

I must say I'm one of those who was very skeptical that 'Doodle' would make it as an AFL player. Given that it normally takes ruckmen 5-7 years to become decent players, I figured that he would be 32 yrs by the time he was good enough to get a game.

I was wrong and I've never been so happy to be oh so wrong. Apart from clunking a couple of good marks and kicking a couple of goals each week, his great positioning has straightened up our whole side. We are playing much more direct football and I credit a lot of that to big Coxy.

i'm not so sure about that. given that cox was an lti elevation for schazza it's a moot point because schaz won't play this year.

Not sure about that. Thought that they still needed a LTI or pre/mid season elevation. Either way we've got it covered. Gault got the PSE, Smith must have another player, but we had elevations for Shaz, Ramsay and Swan up our sleeves and a mid season elevation if needed.

After the announcement of the Collingwood Netball licence, Coxy tweeted "don't know what netball is but I think I might be good at it". Gotta love the big fella. And don't forget the look of absolute disdain he gave big Sauce when he outmarked him at the Gabba.
