Also heard that Kavanagh, the kid they selected a few years ago (there was some talk that North were interested in picking him and he knocked them back because he wanted to go to Essendon) wants out as well. At this rate they won't have enough players left to field a team.uhuh uhuh said:Kyle Hardingham now also wants out...
Bill James said:Cousins was an addict and almost finished as a player. Richmond took a massive cultural risk for 32 average midfield games. Going forward its highly likely Garlett will play more than 32 games and Winderlich will play less, neither will present the cultural risk Cousins did.
TigerForce said:Good to see that none of our players turned out to be addicts as well. Cuz was great mentor for Chimp, Lids & co.
Good point but cousins attitude towards training and preparing for games was second to none. I'm sure a lot of our young guns took note of what it takes to be an elite playerBill James said:Cousins was an addict and almost finished as a player.

I'm not sure. I don't think her identity was ever made public. I remember Robbo carrying on about her using her first name, because that was all that was given and how dare they protect the source. Has this guy actually got an recognised journalistic accreditation? Both North and Essendon were keen at the time, but I wouldn't be surprised if all this has affected the kid's game.BrisTiger24 said:Wasn't it Kavanagh's mum that was interviewed on SEN when all of the Bummer issues first came out and bagged the crap out of Hird and the club?
I thought he had a bit of class as a junior. Haven't really seen him at senior level. Is he just starved of opportunity or hasn't stepped up?

btoz_01 said:I have never seen any player at our club gut run like Cousins used to.
He would give it 120% and was totally *smile*ed by the end of the game. Good on Cuz for showing our players what to do pity none of them have continued with it
That was how Cousins was, though. I read in his autobiography that whatever he did he had to do it full on. It not only applied to his training, but also his drug taking.Jason King said:It was pretty funny seeing him always have to direct the players where to run to get a handball. His work ethic was so far above any player we have had on our list bar Richo for decades.

TOT70 said:Isn't half the team looking to get out? Ryder, Winderlich, Howlett, Hardingham, Kavanagh and how many others are they having to talk out of it every day? To say nothing about how they are trying to figure out if the coach is going to be Hird, Thompson, Harvey, O'Donnell or Sheedy. So much to do, so little time!
Every Essendon official must be busier than a one-armed sushi chef at the Tokyo Fisherman's Ball.
MackTiger said:He retired because of his body apparently yet after a couple of 'impact moments' in games (due to a reduced training load) he wants back in.
30 in 2 days.
No thanks.

What an absolute joke it will be if it is true, especially considering we let Matt White go for nothing.
