Unfortunately as I stated a little while back it's almost impossible to retain two viable No.1 ruck options on your list now unless one is prepared to spend a lot of time playing VFL.
Is Cox that player and if paid an increased salary will he be happy to play second fiddle to Grundy?
Cox has shown more than Grundy as a forward but I still don't see him as a permanent member of our 22 in the role of forward/2nd ruck.

Very happy that Grundy is re-signing but if we lose Cox i will spew. 
He's a smart bloke and he comes from the US, a culture where professional athletes change teams more frequently than many Pies supporters change their underwear. He'll go if we won't play him.

With increased rigors of an AFL season, I don't get why there isn't more thinking outside the square. Why not roster them. 1 week on, one week off.
It keeps them fresh. Its like 2010 interchange, but between games, not 10 min bursts. Especially considering a team needs about 1.2 ruckman per game. Redline one ruck man each game, but give them 2 weeks to recover.
I said the same for Witts and Grundy. Footy is so much follow the leader, rather than tailored independant thinking. |

Great news though the players today love making us supporters wait and sweat for that signature.
