He's got form, Crackers. It was on the same show he was the first commentator to let slip that Matty Knights was getting the Essendon coaching job.
hmm just a thought he shaves and waxes in a clear attempt to avoid the hair test he succeeded. if it was athletics swimming os some other sport he would have got banned for two yrs.

Ben Cousins Tribute Thread
Just getting in early.
I've pre-empted a Wiki entry for Cousins in 2013.
Ben Cousins, after nearly two years out of the game due to an alleged drug addiction, was controversially selected by the Richmond Football Club with the last pick in the 2008 Pre Season draft after moving injured defender Graham Polak on to the rookie list.
At the time the decision received a mixed reaction with Richmond Football Club supporters generally supportive but with rival clubs opposing the move claiming Richmond should not have been permitted to move Polak. However, after successful lobbying from Cousins’ Manager Ricky Nixon and then Players Association President Brendan Gale, AFL Chief Executive Andrew Demetriou confirmed the unusual drafting scenario would be allowed under AFL rules.
It was unforseen at the time but Cousins would go on to play 82 games for the Richmond Football Club between 2009 and 2012 playing an instrumental role in the Tigers back to back Premierships of 2010 and 2011. Injury eventually forced Cousins into retirement but not before he became a Tiger fan favourite.

Understand the Brownlows (although you failed to mention 1 was tied with Richo, and the others shared with Lids and Cotch and whoever else)
I get the back to back Norm Smiths
Not sure about the 6 JDs in 4 years though.

If he could assist in bringing home 2 flags in the next 4 years he can have a lifetime supply of JDs
