Recommitted Mason Cox [triggers contract extension for 2021]

[Scodog10]

Sorry but you will need to keep his 600K on your books for another year.

The salary cap fallout next year should be fun...

Let’s chat again early next week.

Let’s chat again early next week.

It's a date.

 

[Scodog10]

It's a date.

Perfect in the interim from our board.

To quote McClure: "I'm not really sure why Essendon are denying it. But this is the same club that rang me after I broke the Daniher story and told me to take it down because I'd be embarrassed by it. Two months later, he requested a trade."

Should be a fun date!

 

[Altum Volantes]

Trade will be worth it, if only to stop commentators and news reports referring to him as "American Pie"

Went to college in Oklahoma...

Surely they wouldn’t...

 

[Linda_Lovelace]

Pretty much anyone is up for trade if the price is right.

Clubs sit down, run through who might be available, other club says not interested, or lets discuss player x further and move on.

Good call. They've already had a McVeigh on their list.

Didn't he win Collingwood a prelim against you guys last year?

He did. You should definitely try and get him. Would secure a Dreamtime win and a future Essendon dynasty.

 

[legendstatus]

Smells of typical Dodo / Ess bullshit. Well known the worst club to deal with

Souva Larkey rapid development sealed his fate. Hard to see another club taking him.

 

[Visions]

Damn. A 29yo giant who can't mark, can't kick past 40 metres, gets bumped off the ball easy, plays one good game in every 10, I was getting my hopes up that this trade rumour was true!

just heard, Collingwood offered Grundy 5 year Deal, Grundy still said NO, i bet this is why Collingwood wanna hang onto Cox

No they didn’t. That was McLure pontificating. The offer is still currently 3 years.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

So we have have Dodoro denying the trade and Cox him self saying it's fake news but yet Sam McClure stills claims we are after him? Just admit that you were wrong Sam.

Just like he was wrong when Tom Harley and Joe Daniher denied their meeting was anything more than a friendly catch up?

I think it's the Pies who offerd Cox rather than us asking. Pies have cap issues.

If we give up 33 for Cox i'll be fuming.

 

[Red Bull]

Dudoro should be sacked.

The forward line would be locked and loaded with Stewart Brown McKernan and Cox.
Cox comes at $600,000.00 per year

Since when has a club ever approached a rival with an offer of a player? Essendon fed that garbage to Stevo because they don’t want to weaken their bargaining position with Sydney by admitting they’re planning for life post-Daniher, and you’ve gobbled it up like a chump. The $600k per year claim is patently wrong too.

 

[Red Bull]

Regardless I don't want him.

Would rather back in James Stewart give him the number 6 and tell him he's the number 1 fwd.

Along the same lines as giving Langford number 4 and watching him rip up the midfield ... might work ...

 

[Jobe Watson]

Collingwood desperately trying to offload Mason's inflated contract.

Langford isn't a midfielders arsehole don't know why the club keeps persisting with this.

Yeah, should take the number 4 off him

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.

******* oath.
