This is getting a bit off topic, but surely it's not aero. eng... I think the job he turned his back on was with Schlumberger, which is basically a multinational oil company.

Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

I think he (or the Hun) is not being strictly truthful there. I guess it's more catchy than "I can talk for hours about drilling for oil." (Oh, ... I see on playersvoice.com.au he says it was Exxon Mobil, not Schlumberger...) My non-technical tip for his goalkicking is that he should take a longer runup than two steps... but if it feels unnatural doing so I guess now is not the time to start.

OK, so it was a degree in mechanical engineering, and the job he left was with Exxon Mobil, he was still never going to a career as a soccer player.

Yes, I agree. And it was only as goalkeeper anyway, I think, which is hardly surprising or amazing.

Cox improved 150% from the Eagles game. I reckon he's primed for a big one. Along with Stephenson and WHE.
Get back on top.

^ Okay, but is his better performance partly because GWS did not illegally hold and block him, as surely RICH will?

I just heard (I believe) that he became only the third Collingwood player to take 8 contested marks in a game. Some effort.

Most this year I think -great game. Well Done Mason! Best thing is - he wont be happy. He'll only be happy when he's got a premiership. Mark my words - we have Paul Salmon mark 2 here...

Here it is! Did he take strutting lessons from John Travolta?
