Would give him a go again myself.
Would love to see Power or the Dees give him another shot.

Just a sidepoint here. Matt Maguire finishes on 99 games, unless the Saints re-draft him. He's been going out with a girl Sophie for a fair while now. Sophie happens to have a brother Luke Ball, who's a pretty fair player, albeit with injuries restricting him recently. Sophie also happens to have her mum's brother being Peter Russo, with nearly 200 senior games and a couple of premierships. Sophie also happens to be related to the Hawthorn Kennedys - John, Josh etc
So, I guess I'm saying that if they stay together and have a couple of sons and the family footy gene kicks in yet again, the Saints are one game short of claiming any father-son access. IF if if if I know, but still........

Magpie shock: Cox throws it in
Magpie Shannon Cox
COLLINGWOOD defender Shannon Cox has retired.
The 23-year-old made the decision after realising during the off-season that he no longer had the passion to play football at the highest level.
Originally drafted from WAFL club South Fremantle in the 2005 NAB AFL Rookie Draft, Cox was elevated to the senior list at the end of 2006 and made his debut in round three the following season against Richmond.
He played 25 games in three seasons for the Magpies, including two finals and will be formally delisted by Friday's 2pm list lodgement deadline.
He played 11 of the first 13 games this season but did not return to senior football after the round 13 win over Fremantle.
Cox, who has battled weight and fitness problems during his time at AFL level, did return to training when the Pies started their pre-season campaign on Monday but later informed the club of his decision.
Interestingly, he was the final member of the Collingwood playing squad to leave Gosch’s Paddock on the first day of training. As his teammates returned to the changerooms, he remained on the field and endured some extra running - under the eye of several coaches.
Collingwood chief of football Geoff Walsh admitted the decision came as a surprise to the club but said he understood if he had lost the motivation to play AFL.
"Shannon returned from the post-season break and decided that he no longer had the desire and hunger to commit to the demands of AFL football,” Walsh said.
"We fully expected Shannon to be part of our 2010 list however we respect his decision to retire and wish him well."
Collingwood now has selections 30, 62, 78 and 94 at the NAB AFL Draft, however that may change when clubs lodge their final lists with the AFL on Friday, November 13.
