Contracted Mason Cox [out of contract 2020]

[Red Bull]

Pies facing a cap squeeze and see an opportunity to offload him they know Essendon are on the hunt for a ruck/fwd and would have called Dodoro to see if he's interested.

Bellchambers is still the man in the ruck.
Cox would have to play forward.

Won't be anymore once Draper is over his acl

So Essendon bomb it to his head and because Cox is hopeless below his knees if he doesn't mark it the ball will rebound with ease no thanks rather take my chances with Stewart or Jenkins.

Yeah, clubs don’t do that buddy. They allow players to explore their options, they don’t call other clubs begging them to take players off their hands.

When Fantasia walks out, Mosquito gets his chance as a crumber at the feet of Cox ?

Would say so Mozzie finishes year 12 I think so he'll be ready for a full pre season

Just for those who swallowed the garbage Essendon fed to Stevo about Collingwood being the ones who approached Essendon

Essendon not being candid.
astonishing scenes.

I do not understand why they denied it. It's easy enough to say that you had a conversation about Mason Cox, and then say you have conversations about a lot of players at this time of year - its become a way bigger deal with them denying than if they'd owned up to it.

Bellchambers body is cooked IMO.

 

[Underarm]

No surprise the American would use Trump tactics to shoot down a bad story about himself.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Why did the club deny it? could have easily said "Yes we did have a chat to to Pies about Mason Cox but like every club this time of year we are looking at multiple players"

 

[scratchy09]

Just a question, what is Cox's reported salary?

Not if you play Richmond.
He will take 10 contested marks and kick five goals.

half a mill a year I heard.
Hard to believe he is on that much though.

We will just wheel out for Dreamtime only then haha

guranteed 2 wins a year.

If it is half a mil, I'd happily give him up for a late pick and target Jenkins who will be under half of that

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Half a mil? jesus stay away Essendon

Pies had to pay him that much when Brisbane was after him.
Have heard a few times on trade radio from different blokes that $500k is correct, but really what would they know.

It’s because they don’t want to show Sydney that they’re preparing for life without Daniher, which would weaken their hand at the trade table.

Nah, he is just shit.

Sure but the Swans could easily find out if they are canvassing alternatives. The posturing is purely for the fans at the end of the day.

 

[Dank Academy]

Unless it progresses beyond the initial discussion, clubs enquiring about players during trade period isn’t really worth reporting on*

If he is on that much, I'd be so keen to off-load him, target jenkins. Offer Grundy 5 years 1 mil. De Goey, 5 years 900k and moore 4 years 800k. Might need to off-load a few more players or convince older players such as Sidebottom and Pendles to cut some of their salary for the pursuit of a flag.

I think Grundy has been offered five years. Has rejected it.
That's what I'm hearing.
Could be bullshit.
Gotta hang onto him and De Goey at all costs.
We had to offer Dusty seven years and it's paid off in spades.
