Can't Stand Listening to BT
I'm sure BT is offended by the idea that an upstart can learn the fine art of being a key forward in not much time at all. It makes him less special.

I don't think todays conditions suited him that well, but he tried hard and never gave up, he dropped a couple of marks and will learn from that, he is still a work in progress, but he has a great heart.

Didn't have a huge game when we had the ball, but he saved at least a few WB goals/forward 50 entries with some nice defensive spoils and pressure.

The issue with Mason against the Dogs was that he didn't play out of the goal square enough where he can be dangerous.When he plays up ground sides like the dogs will easily run off him.

Didn't have a great game against the Dogs, but he's worth persisting with especially in light of the injuries to Moore and Fasolo up forward.

Why? If we had half a brain we'd be crumbling him front and centre. He's rarely beaten, but no one seems to understand what front and centre is.

he's alright and is a straighter kick than cloke will ever be. need to crumb him and give him chances out in front. doesn't help when we keep screwing up all the time.

if he was the caliber of Travis Cloke I would agree with you. however, in the case of cox, he rarely gets the ball down as he is usually out of position.

Not only is he a beginner, but he is clearly out on his feet. Time for him to work on his craft in the twos. Over delivered on my expectations of him, but this is AFL.

hmmmm, do I prefer 1 goal and no behinds from one mark and 1 kick. Or would I rather 2-4 from 6 marks and 16 disposals (as well as countless times where the ball comes down to the crumbers in a predictable fashion.

Was I watching? No, turned it off at half time actually. Sickened. Again.
So Pendles down forward eh? F*cking great, not like we need him on the ball or anything stupid like that.
But i know - let's drop Cloke again, eh Bucks! Muppet.
