Dean Cox,

Born August 1st 1981

Champion who in tandem with the Russian means that we would have the best ruck combination in the league now whilst developing the likes of Gawn, Fitzpatrick, etc. Simultaneously fills our desire for a gorilla forward (when resting) and less chance of us "breaking" the Russian with too heavy a workload.

Why would he come to us? - desire to play finals again during his career (3 year left?)

Why would the Eagles let him go?...their list needs a major overhaul and trading valuable commodities can expedite the process.

    Interested but depends on the cost...

    A quality player but don't see the point in chansing Big Cox.

    I'd only go for someone like Cox (at his age) if we needed a no 1 ruckmen and we were already in our premier window.

    Cause neither of those apply I'd have to strongly disagree.

    Much preferred to Hale, only needs to get through 2 years while our kids mature. Should be cheaper.

    Will cost us Cale Morton and probably pick 12.

    Way too expensive.

    I'm not so sure. Cox makes us a top 5 team imo. Jamar and Cox is a wonderful duo that could last well into the decade. Morton is a great player, but can he be as influential as Cox could be? I'm not so sure.

    The onlt way I'd accept that would be if they threw one of their 2nd round picks 26 or 28 in with Cox with us throwing in pick 49 with Morton.

    Morton is a gun. Plus he has two years on his contract.

    Cox is an old hack. Be like ecruiting Dean Irving all over again.

    He's 29 & carrying nagging injuries. IMO your imagining he'd be way more expensive than I do, or would pay.

    I'd give a 4th Rnder.

    Maybe we should see if Simon Madden wants to pull on the boots again?

    We can trade Scully to Essendon for him...

    Hey, no need to go that far, I just don't see Morton becoming a dominant force like everyone else, I would love to be proven wrong.

    is cox out of contract? how long has glass got left? if cox is 29 and wants out and is out of contract the eagles have to be reasonable.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
