I don't believe they use him properly.
He is a forward ruckman not a ruckman forward.
I respectfully believe it's the other way around.
I see him as a #1 ruckman first, chop-out/resting forward second. In fact, when it comes to rucking, I actually have him as the best centre square ruckman on our list...
I'm not convinced he's done enough in the VFL to deserve a senior berth, but if Cloke is out injured this week, then there's hardly anyone else to play as a tall forward. If he comes in, he should be played in the goal square and Darcy Moore played at CHF.
I think Bucks needs to pull out big Cox this week and show him off on the biggest stage of them all - the mcg. Slip him in and see how hard he can go. He can slide in and out of the forward line and fill a hole down there.
I think he's capable of rising to the occasion when needed. I don't think it's premature to release Cox into the seniors like many here believe. He's had long enough. Time to shake things around now and hand it out to the dopers. He can make deep defensive thrusts when we're short on numbers too.
