Everybody is talking about this(judd) but what is the price you would pay.

Whose says he's an addict ToO?

It is alleged that the fight with Embling and Chick eventuated after there was a chat about Cousins getting some "treatment" for a problem he might have. Cousins strongly denied he had a problem and the frustrations from the other two came to the fore.

All hearsay at the moment evo but the pattern of behaviour doesn't suggest evrything is rosy. Far from it.

However IF indeed you were looking to make such a trade you would damn well want to do your homework on Ben.
 
Re: Ben Cousins in trouble again

Crystal Meth is 10 times more addictive then Heroin, one hit and your hooked!

It's hard for anybody to come back from a Crystal Meth addiction without some time in rehab. I heard a rumor a few days ago that some AFL players had experienced ice, if this is true it's nasty business. I hope no Richmond player ever tries ice, because if they do their career will be over with one hit!

Yeah good one CC, im laughing hard....its a bloody tough one but i think ill just wait and see what happens with Judd and if and i say a big if....i still think he will stay an eagle but if he was to come back to VIC i would hope that we would give it our all to have him at punt road, Judd and lids...sounds good to me.
 
Re: Ben Cousins in trouble again

Obviously you'd do some serious homework toO,I agree.But I think alot of people get confused with someone who's used and an addict.

Anyway,lets see how it comes out in the wash.It wouldn't suprise me if he's back around round 5 or 6 and carving them up on the field.

I think it will be longer than that Evo, he has some serious problems and it wont be resolved within weeks, id dare say months....
 
Re: Ben Cousins in trouble again

If it was a Greek tragedy the Cuz would have killed his father and slept with his mother by now and Caro would be all over it! >:D
 
Re: Ben Cousins in trouble again

Id have both of them in a heartbeat. Not many will agree with me but its my opinion. Drugs are a major problem in the AFL in every club....thats a fact. This guy is a superstar....we dont have them falling off trees at punt road. It wont happen....but there you go.
 
Re: Ben Cousins in trouble again

Unfortunately this is only the tip of the icebrrg for West Coast.

Their iceberg is capable of sinking the Titanic.

And I it wont be too long before one big Melbourne based club has a similar problem?????? 8)

Thankfully we don't have them comatose in gutters either.
 
Re: Ben Cousins in trouble again

I'll take Kerr kthnxbai :wavey

As for Cousins...hmmm, well look at the other similarly aged recruit we picked up recently...sure Cousins is a heap better player, but would we really get full use of his potential, given where we are? Cousins is a premiership winning player at his best...but as a team, we're nowhere near a premiership...and add to that what we'd have to give up for him...

Too much cost for mine. Pass. Even ignoring his off-field exploits...
