Fortunate enough to be a West Coast Fan and watch two of arguably the best ruckmen the game has had.
BUT comparing an inside midfielder beast to an elite running wingman is almost whats being asked.
Like comparing Marc Murphy and Patrick, Dion Prestia
and Cotchin, Burgoyne and Mitchell, Libba and MaCRae etc etc.
For what it's worth Cox had the ability to read the game better and hence get into more damaging positions. BUT Nic could make the 5 or 6 person tussle on a contested ball end up falling our way..
