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.

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.

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.

That is one of the absolute stupidest comments I've seen made on this forum.

Wowza.

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.

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.
