Going to win it without a nomination

I’m pretty confident that will be the last we see of it all year barring a further run of injuries to our talls.

We now have all 4 of Draper, 2MP, Bryan and Phillips all fit and available so there’s no excuse now.

I think it depends on the opposition ruckman.
If its Gawn - no.
If its a pinch hitter - then maybe.

Nah it wouldn’t matter who it was because whenever 2MP and one of the other three actual ruckman has been fit, we have always picked them.

And if you are playing one of Draper, Phillips, Bryan alongside 2MP there is absolutely no need or benefit to rucking Cox.

Actually my OCD prevents me from changing my avatar.

Somebody else should definitely use it:

Should have been nominated at least 3 times

Yep.

He’s going to end up going against guys like Coleman Jones etc, I’m fine with him having a 5 minute spell here and there.
Just want to keep him away from the real ruckmen.

He was thrown in against Nic Nat and threw him to the ground.

David King said the same thing that we are risking him by playing him in ruck what if he does a knee on knee injury and does a pcl and misses a chunk of the season.

Said just leave him on the wing

Didnt realise David King was a high performance expert on top of being a statistics genius…

He’s none of those things, he’s just a garden variety farkwit.

Hes right, though.

Cox could injure himself playing anywhere doing anything.

Maybe we should just not play him.

How often are player injured in the ruck? The dangers of ruckwork are massively overstated. I reckon it’s great they we throw him on-ball where he gets to be around the action and develop his ruck craft. And he does pretty damn well too when he goes in there. Better than 2MP.

Of cours shouldn’t be playing him in the ruck anyway Cox was getting owned by Chol.

so was Phillips.

At least Philips was putting on a body

Cox didn’t even get a touch it was like Chol was rucking against no one

Mason Cox will get a rising star nomination before Nik does.

You must’ve missed those intercept marks Chol was taking around the ground in the first half
