He's a pretty straight kick too. I'm fair dinkum wrapped that he's staying. As a self-confessed nomad on a big Aussie adventure I was worried that he might look north.

The way this bloke has developed in such a short time is astonishing.
It would be no surprise to me if he is a brownlow medalist... big call?
Yep, but the skidstronamus has spoken
Wonderful news that Cox is going to stay. We need to make sure that we play him.
Over the break we need to focus on getting a quality defensive forward in particular

Careful there Skids!! I said he might get a Brownlow VOTE for his game against Geelong and was told by someone they'd walk backwards from Perth if he won a Brownlow. Having said that I agree that he will be something special for us.

He really started to come on in the last few games of this year.
Do you remember how well Crocker played in the final few meaningless matches of last season! It means nothing to do well when the season is over.
I think we hope that he continues to improve (and i think he can), but i hope that the brains trust at Collingwood aren't just penciling in a forward line of Moore and Cox! I hope they are being a little smarter than that.

What you fail to see E is that "Meaningless" game was far from "Meaningless" to the Dreamons and they were literally playing to WIN a spot in the finals. I guess you need to redefine your "meaning" of the word "Meaningless"!!!
You don't judge players on the worse they show. Anyone can have a bad day. You judge them on the best they show. Cox had a good day against Melbourne and there's something now to build on. I would be very disappointed if we aren't structuring in a forward line into the future that includes the two tall ruckman rotating out of the centre. That all depends of course on the continual improvement of Mason Cox.
