So whats the go with him now.

Will the AFL or the Eagles take action. Suspension? Delisting?

On the news they showed footage from the eagles president from April 30 when he said cousins is on his last chance and if he does offend again he will not be playing at the eagles...The plot thickens
He actually signed a revised contract a few months back that said he would be sacked if he got into any trouble with police.

fancy being charged with unlawful possesion of viagra.

The chick who was in the car with him must've looked a bit ordinary.

viagra and ice is a combo that is well used..... ;)
 
Re: Ben Cousins Arrested

Would RFC pick Cousins up in the PSD if he was available, or would they not considering potential damage from loss of sponsorship?

Brilliant ToO...Who knows he could well be swapping that for the famous yellow and black guernsey....

Would we want him? fantastic footballer but would he be a "hinderance" to our list or an "asset" baring in mind his pros and cons

It makes you wonder how a guy with the world at his feet can go so off the rails given what is at stake for him.

The nectar is sweet.

The AFL are the one's in the shitter. This is a PR nightmare.

You have a whole truckload of parents of draftees watching all this unfold very closely.

Re: Ben Cousins Arrested

I forgot AFL players dont smoke, drink, take drugs, have relations with the opposite gender, swear, gamble, go out past 9pm.....please dont be so naive....Cousins if they could get his head right (thats a big if)...got him away from Perth...would be perfect in our side....it would be mighty hard to refuse a player of his calibre if he wanted to walk into the PSD....might hard.
 
Re: Ben Cousins Arrested

Either the cops couldn't keep their mouths closed or the media have their scanners/radio's set on the police channel.

Maybe they had a lady friend in the car with them, hence the no shirt...

Might blow up in our face too 8ty. Ever consider that?

This guy is starting to develop a criminal record. How many of these AFL players you are talking about have those?

Re: Ben Cousins Arrested

Don't want him. 28yo obviously mentally unstable drug addict who has reached the highs of AFL despite being heavily entrenched in drugs.

Why the hell would you want that sort of person influencing our crop of kids ?

I can't understand why anyone would even consider it.
