Cogs thread [merged]

[Smokey]

Unfortunately he has shown nothing, and he knows it to.

And more a case he can't show anything even if the mind is still keen as the body is gone for AFL level.

And to rub salt into our wounds, he will drop down 1-2 levels and star.  Just to highlight the difference in that 'final' step up to AFL.

No surprise but this was posted by RichoRox12 on BF:

"Heard today from a friend that Mark Coughlan has been told tonight will be his last game for the RFC.

Not sure if we will trade him or simply de-list, but apparently Hardwick is keen on a running style plan which Cogs just isn't quick enough for.

I'm not 100%, but is believed to have come from his manager."

Farewell Cogs.

One of those players who you can't help but like.

Unfortunately this is the absolute correct call.

Bummer - Shows no excuses or sentiment from now on, will have a tiple at the 23-24 margin for Cogs

Sure is. Sad for Cogs but its what the club needed to do.

For a couple of reasons I would love him to play a real good game tonight.  He deserves a break to go his way but from a more selfish perspective we might just get a nibble from a 'home' club - a pick around 50-60 might be a reasonable return now.

Cogs used to be a deadset gun

it is a shame we were robbed of the best of Cogs, Brown.

We should trade for Luke Ball.

Luke Ball and great skills should never be seen in the same sentence.

Showing just how little you know.

Why do you think he isnt get a game?

Cant kick the ball 40m anymore, the poor guy has had his career destroyed by injuries.
Lets get rid of one cripple and bring in another.

Luke Ball = Mark Coghlan

[Judge Roughneck]

We should trade for Luke Ball.

Why?

- captian of his afl club @ 20
 - gun footballer
 - good age
 - we have lose cogs + johnson

- That was 5 years ago
- That was 4 years ago, declined every year since, he's marginal now
- 26 next year, very borderline age for us, especially as he may be lucky to be playing when he's 30
- Not sure that means we need to chase recycleds yet

He used to be one of my favourite players, doesn't change much now though

[Judge Roughneck]

There is not chance Luke Ball will come good?

McMahon for Ball would be brillant.
