In terms of possessions etc Cox is going ok. I reckon if he stays fit he can push into the 20-30 goal mark.
Look at his mark average
He's on track

He stacks up well against Eric Hipwood, who is 12 mths older, but not as well as Charlie Curnow, who is 18 mths older. He stats aren’t as good as Curnow’s last year either. He has the rest of the year to make his numbers better, though.
Curnow looks distinctly quicker to me and that would definitely help. Coxy was much cheaper though.

Cox caught my eye in the game the week before and his stats also told a good story.
Before Sunday's game I posted this in another thread;
Brennan Cox has really impressed me this season ... lots of contested marks, goal assists and I've liked his decision making. If he could develop his goal kicking he could be very dangerous.

Great to see he is getting some well deserved recognition;

Best available. Would love Rankine as a Walters clone. Start as a small forward, slowly work into the midfield.

No, no it's not.
I thought watching him last year if he fixed up his set shot kicking he would turn out fine.
He took a fair chunk of contested marks last year in just about every game but didn't convert his opportunities he kicked i think 2.9 from set shots. Which was his major deficiency.
Still got a fair bit to go has brennan i remember he missed a sitter against north a few weeks back. And i am still not yet 100% confident when he takes a mark that he will kick the goal but the belief he would have got on the weekend would have been massive.

Good info on his background, working on goal kicking, fitness.
Everyone seen this? Quite unbelievable
Better than every other key forward apart from hogan to this point in his career..
Honestly a bit surprised that people have been unsure or unimpressed by Cox, I think he's shown his marking ability in every game he's played so far. Obviously it all came together on the weekend but there aren't many 18-19 year olds who have been sticking their marks with one grab like Cox does. Certainly Taberner didn't until recently
Total area can be determined for sure.
While, draft picks is comparing apples with oranges.
Square area = 2m*2m = 4m2
Pentagon area = 1/4*sqrt(5(5+2(sqrt5))*1.8*1.8) = 5.57m2
We use our first round draft pick on the pentagon.
Wrong.

His first half against St Kilda last year was all I needed to see to know he had massive potential. He probably would've got a nom in that game if he didn't get a bad corkie in the second half. A lot of hard work to do still though.
Why?
Why wrong? Best available for your needs I can agree with. But if the 'best' player in the draft is a ruckman and we had pick one and took him, that would be stupid IMO.
