Seeing Jamie Elliott wont be back for weeks, is a forward line of Cameron, Cox, and Checkers a viable option ? That way, Cameron can play CHF, and Moore can go back to CHB, where is his true position. ? Yeh, its a tall forward line, but opposing defenders would have their work cut out for them, if the ball can be delivered better too our forwards. Be worth a shot, change things up a bit i reckon.

Yep Piesnchess, I see no reason why this can't be tried, along with any other
reasonable option. There's a bit of a mystery though as to what Cox's "soreness" might be that kept him out of the VFL last week. Could he have fallen out with Bucks?

Cox is intelligent so I assume that he has.
In major sports in the USA players quite frequently just stop playing if they decide that they want to be traded out in the next season, as they do not want to injure themselves. I may be way out of line there, but it's a possibility.

Very funny re the intelligence of Coxy!!! :lol:

That's an interesting option to explain his "soreness". Makes a lot of sense for players to do that and particularly in Mason's case, where I believe he still has further eye surgery to come? Or maybe he just want to do a "Dusty" and go home to visit his family. (It must have been particularly tough for him in this regard during the Covid outbreak).

It's intriguing and interesting to speculate :)

Or, he might just have been "sore". Liam McMahon missed the game "ill" and I don't think we thought that was code for anything.

Quite a viable option of course :wink: Just having some light hearted banter :)
The injury report says he had "hamstring tightness".

Years ago General Soreness was an unpopular member of the injury panel. Looks like he has made a comeback
