Hayfever said:The incident in Melbourne where he was supposedly found "inebriated" on the street in thw wee small hours....... was he actually tested for alcohol, or was it simply assumed he was pissed?
More recent events, as well as the Perth runner, raises the question of whether it was cocaine(or ice) then as well.

crackertiger said:Yep your 100% right Tiger of old. I think you will find that the police know a fair bit more too!
There is so much more to come in this saga imho.
glantone said:Is it fair to assume that if the Tiges offered Cousins a contract, then the club is by default accepting of (champion) players committing such crimes and misdemeanours providing they don’t commit them while wearing the Tiger gurnsey?
And if that’s the case where do the Tiges draw their moral line?
For me, I’d say YES to any Brownlow champion junky, booze hound, party animal or mad transvestite but draw the line on suspected serial killers, rabies carriers and conservatives...... unless they’re a KPP of course.
jb03 said:Yes all very humourous.
Where do the tigers draw the line?
They are obviously happy with players that punch the living daylights out of other people. Considering Cousins has only harmed himself whereas the other has harmed another human being, I know which I consider worse.
Where do you seriously draw the line?
Redford said:Silly post.
Cousins has harmed his family, friends, team mates, girlfriend, AFL brand, along with the entire western civilisation as we know it.

jb03 said:I get it now, so anyone that harms any of the above is not fit to play. Your push to sanitise the game is pathetic.
LOL at you worried about the AFL Brand. You really do bring the worst of Caro and Patrick Smith to this site.
Where's Momentai when you need him - c'mon Miller, get Cousins. Stuff 'em all.
Redford said:Is that code for: “The Y&B brand is pretty valueless right now anyway, so what the hell.” ?
Fair enough.
hopper said:If Cousins had already been playing for us, I'd suggest we should boot him - and the criteria for getting or keeping any player should be the same.
Tigers of Old said:*smile* Smith doesn't think we have no value.
He might if we bring Cousins on board though.

Game, set, match.
No club in the competition will hire a drug addict.
