Cousin's fate to be known within an hour.
 
Re: Cousins: The poll. Do you want the Tigers to draft Ben Cousins?

Just said on 3AW the hearing has now wrapped up and a press conference will be held sometime after 6pm.

What ever the outcome I will be glad to hear the end of this.

if the news isn't good for hime I'd hate to think what he might do to himself. It would be irresponsible of the AFL to turn their back on Cousins whatever the decision is.

SEN just crossed to Sandy Roberts and he said that an announcment is expected within the next 20 - 25 minutes and that Ben will is expected to issue a statement but will not field questions.

Bad sign.
 
Cousins to be a Tiger

Very pleased that there have been no announcements yet. I think this means that the AFL's attempt to do a deal which involves Cousins agreeing to stay out of football until 09, has been rejected by the Cousins camp.

IMO the longer it goes on the more likely it is that Cousins will be permitted to register and subject to conditions relating to his health and welfare, join the Tigers immediately.

Gone for 12 months,stand by for legal action.
 
Re: Cousins: The poll. Do you want the Tigers to draft Ben Cousins?

apparently he has been suspended for 12 months and cannot play this year
 
Re: Cousins: The poll. Do you want the Tigers to draft Ben Cousins?

Cousins found guilty of bringing the game into disrepute and suspended for 12 months.

Can apply to enter the draft in 2009.

Good result for all IMHO.

Suspended for 12 months. ??? Tanking will be given new meaning next season.
 
Re: Cousins: The poll. Do you want the Tigers to draft Ben Cousins?

bring on the lawyers but if he doesn't get a place on a list this year at his age - he's played his last game.
 
Re: Cousins: The poll. Do you want the Tigers to draft Ben Cousins?

Which club would want to draft him after 12 months out of the game and a year older?

No club imo, why would you?
