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.

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.

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.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?
