Toast Dean Cox

[Quinz]

The 4-Time AA, Premiership winning, ruckman of the decade plays his 200th game this weekend, making him the 14th Eagle to do so.

Onya Coxy!

 

[Ochre]

pity the onyacoxy chant has died the past couple of year

Are you ready? 3, 2, 1, onyacoxy!

 

[DivideandMultiply]

I feel lucky to have seen him play at the Eagles.

One of the greatest ever ruckman, a well deserved milestone and I hope he can get back to his best.

 

[Be Aggressive]

I always wondered how the chant was orchestrated. Sounds cool from the other end of the ground as Coxy strolls the boundary!

Hopefully Coxy pulls out a performance like his 2nd half last week and we get a win for the big fella.

has done some things that ruckmen just dont do.

love all the lace out left foot passes to leading forwards, sublime skill.

the goal against essendon in 2006 when he turned mark bolton inside out, in the forward pocket was amazing.

hope he gets back to his best next year.

i think the guy who does it knows him

basically when coxy was coming he'd stand up and yell 3,2,1 onyacoxy

but as it got bigger he added, are you ready

and then in 07 he would call out the block numbers 1 by 1, "Block 149 are you ready? Corporate boxes are you ready? 3,2..."

fun times, coxy would normally laugh if we were winning

i still remember phil matera missing a very easy set shot coz the chant went off just as he kicked

Good on you Cox!

Hopefully the boys put in a blinder for you!

 

[Hap Hapablap]

Club legend, what a great story, still believe at his best he was the best ruckman of the decade.

 

[Majinbuu]

We have big cox!

Hi everyone

I thought I pop in and congratulate Dean on 200 games - wonderfull player and always gave the lions a few headaches but im sure Luey learnt alot from playing against him.

Injuries over the last 2 years have made people forget just how dominant he is when fully fit. Leigh Matthews called him the best he's ever seen and i'm with Lethal on that. Racked up numbers and ran around the ground like a man half his size and set the benchmark of what ruckman needed to be going forward.

watching his mouthguard fall out always makes me lol

 

[faisan]

Well done Coxy!

What makes this achievement even more amazing is that he had to work hard to get off the rookie list.
