Direct answer

• Mason Cox joined Fremantle on a two-year SSP contract in late November 2025 and is part of the Dockers’ ruck/forward depth for 2026 and 2027. He’s been driving pre-season preparations and has been publicly described as all-in for Fremantle.

What this means for Fremantle

• Cox provides additional height (211 cm) and experience, backing up Fremantle’s key forwards and ruck options as they build their 2026 list. He’s expected to compete for spots alongside players like Sean Darcy and Luke Jackson and to bring versatility in forward/ruck roles.
