Judging by Red's post I think that's a given Tooheys.

Yeah it's a worry but I think for the long term benefit of the game and players welfare they need to start naming individuals, so if some of our guys are named so be it. no point in glossing this *smile* over anymore.

I wouldn't name them.The clubs know who they are.-despite Woosha's bleatings.Thats enough.

What does it acheive publicy 'outing' and humiliating them further.It only makes future players more retiscent to seek help.

Joel Bowden made this same argument yesterday on SEN on behalf of the AFLPA.
 
Re: Ben Cousins in trouble again

Do the Clubs know who they are though Evo? I was under the impression that they don't... well at least the coaching staff.

The two strikers they do.Hell,we on the net evenknow them.

Maybe with the 1 strikers some aren't known,but even then the club doctors are informed.

Not even, but only.

What about the reference in one of the papers yesterday (sorry, forget which one it was) that there are rumours of a video tape circulating that involves, WCE players, girls and illicit substance consumption ! Geez, if that is true and it gets out, all hell will break lose !

Classic email doing the rounds today involving Cousins, Embely, Chick, the two girlfriends of Cousins and Embely, 6 chicks, not many clothes, a table that like Tony Montana's desk in Scarface, a fight, 20k worth of something going out the window!!!

This is getting like Pulp Fiction!!! I rekon this has beaten the Carey story!!!!!!
 
Re: Ben Cousins in trouble again

Apparaently a drug dealers phone was tapped and it was found Aaron Edwards amd Daniel Kerr were caught. This is from ABC Radio.
 
Re: Ben Cousins in trouble again

Ben's parents were on 7 news and said he has substance abuse problems, he's made some wrong decisions but they're behind him all the way. It's the kind of thing (addiction I suppose) you don't think will happen to you. Ben is going to be treated at a clinic in Arizona. Pretty sad story for all involved and I hope he has a successful recovery.
 
Re: Ben Cousins in trouble again

Now the're digging up 2005 stuff.

The media are going to crank it right up.Probably other clubs 'news' as well.

Baton down the hatches,a storms commin'-possibly for many clubs.

Put on your Anorak if you won't batten hatches.

Don't tell me the No-Doz is being used again.

Re: Ben Cousins in trouble again

for what it's worth,
the hypocrisy of the media is amazing.
when we have tv media stars constantly rubbing their nose whilst mocking drug use you have to wonder just how much hide they have
spin and more spin...worsfolds hand was forced last night, so why praise his honesty, what else could he have said?
bleat about not having proof all you like john - but until it got to a state where he was embarrasing the club you did nothing.
everybody loves a winner
