AFL: The Fox Footy panel were heavily critical of Collingwood forward Mason Cox's performance against Brisbane.
'No presence, no influence': Brutal call on struggling Pie as AFL great mocks 'Batman' shades.
“When you look at the two sides tonight, they were almost identical in age and experience, the list profiles of tonight’s team. “I think we’ve seen enough of Kreuger now that he can play, and Darcy Cameron can certainly hold his own. “I’m just worried they’ve gone really tall tonight, they’ve got two ruckmen already, do they need Mason Cox down there? I think the guy has no presence, no influence forward of centre, I just think this experiment has run its course.” Collingwood forward-ruck Mason Cox has “no presence” and “no influence” on the team any more and doesn’t fit in the 22, according to Fox Footy’s panel of experts. “I’m wondering what the function is that Mason Cox plays for the Pies. Because there’s just no influence,” King said on Fox Footy post-game on Thursday night.
