We as Australians have truly been blessed to have a citizen as noble and brave as Ben Cousins. Lets be honest no one here is perfect (although im so damn close its scary) and neither is Ben Cousins. Last week the Eagles and Cousins decided it was time to give his body a break. Fair enough considering hes the hardest working player in the AFL (take note Mark Ricciuto).

On his well earned and deserved break, Cousins has decided that during his time off he will better himself as a human being (take note Mark Ricciuto) and rather then spend his time adding on the kgs like a certain Docker midfielder who exposed himself a while back he has decided to spend the time on curing what is really a very small problem in his life. Even though his drug "problem" is so insignificant and small he has decided to tackle the problem in order to not only lead the way for all young men in the country but lead the way for all other AFL players who fail to admit they are not as good as they may think they are.

If only fellow AFL players followed the example set by Ben. Maybe Farmer could take counselling sessions for his wife beating. Maybe the entire Freo team could have a crash course on how to treat women correctly. Hitting them isnt a correct way. Maybe Melbourne can cure the clear gambling culture amongst their team. After the 2 losses to Carlton this year can they really be trusted.

Ben Cousins has set the example. Its up for the rest of the AFL to jump and solve their teams REAL and problems which actually exist rather then Bens which is only minor. We can all be grateful that such a noble genteleman like Ben is leading the way. Question now is will other AFL clubs and players follow or will the head in the sand rule apply for a few more years yet. My guess is sweep it under the rug for no one to find :)

I suggest you take a crash course in English so you can gain the intelligence to read my gospels in the future

Oh thank you! You have shown me the light!:rolleyes:

No, I think you give all Eagles supporters a bad name(well, worse than what we already have) and are a blight on this board.

But, you're a foil for Pav4AA, so you have your uses.
Keep it up:thumbsu:

The troll has surfaced from under his bridge. Good to see you've emerged now some of the heat has gone out of the drugs debate. You'll disappear again if there are more revelations about West Coast.

One word for you. Culture.

3 flags in 20 years is the culture Eagles are about. Unlike most clubs Eagles confront there problems even in this case when it is so small and insignificant. 2 female beatings in a space of months yet Fremantle continue to reward them for there mistakes....That is culture for ya

Ever since 92 when the Eagles turned up at the start of the season significantly larger than they were the previous season theres been questions over them on drugs. You're happy with that. Thats why culture sums up your club so well.

Woosha gets told theres a drug culture at the club in 2001. (Like he wouldn't have known from his time as a player...)
W: "Are you guys taking drugs?"
BC: *wipes white powder off from under his nose* "No, sir"
W: *ruffles BCs hair* "Go on then, ya scallywag. Just make sure you play well on the weekend"

Sums up the ill-eagles and people like you F-U. Ignore the problem as long as you're winning. Use 'em until they're no good to you then show 'em the door. Gardy found that out and now Ben has learnt it the hard way.

Delusional! That's all you are.

Or, it a very narrow set of blinkers.
Oh, Rucciuto = no drugs.
Cousins = Drug Lord!!!

How do you waste 3k a week. Just ask Ben Cousins!!!! He's damn fine at it.
:eek:

This post sums up Victorians lack of intelligence and fear, Believing everything they read in the mere hope Eagles may slip up and allow them to win a flag or two in the next decade. Newsflash it isnt gonna happen. Eagles are the most dominant team in the league and tall poppy syndrome is causing everyone to turn a non issue into a issue. Jealousy is generally a good thing but in this case the bitterness has turned it into a curse.

Check the tacklebox ;) . I think the difference between the 2 is Ricciuto has admitted he is a thug and never changed believing his own hype. Ricciuto is happy to be a flawed player and a flawed individual

Here at West Coast we strive for perfection. Unlike down at the Crows were third place is good enough. Typical Glenelg mentality :rolleyes:

Do you think all your trouble's will go away by stating the "HISTORY" of the FFC???

Stop living in the past, get back to reality FU and the reality is the WCE are ****ing drug fuct criminals...

Can you supply the source where Rucciuto claims he is a thug? No, didnt think so.:rolleyes:
If flawed = 8 All Australians, a premiership and a Brownlow, then what are you. I know 99.9% of Big Footy could answer that!!;)
If WC are striving for perfection, maybe in a couple of generations you might get lucky. Aint gonna happen now or in the near future though.;)
And as for Glenelg. Not my team. Who cares about them.

If winning premiierships is troubles then be prepared for ten more years of turmoil. Lets face it. I have only stated the tip of the iceberg in the case of Fremantle. Their players however are treated like gods (cough Farmer) and so believe they can bash whoevery they like no matter what their gender is. When you look at it the fans have alot to answer for in this respect

Since I have been on Bigfooty, I have enjoyed then banter with certain Eagle supporters (never thought I would) but you F-U are a disgrace to the decent Eagle supporters out there....an absolute disgrace :thumbsu:

Keep telling yourself that, druggy boy. June 2006.... Woosha gets told theres a drug problem in the club, so what does he do? Brushes it under the carpet. After all, you weren't going to win the flag without Ben Cousins, were you?

Culture.

Nice reasoning :rolleyes: . I think Im just saying what every Eagle fan truly believes whether they can admit it or not. Its a bit like Hawthorn admitting tanking in the past 2 years. Its hard to admit but we all know the truth in the end

I love it when people take trolls on Bay 13 so seriously... It's Bay 13 for Christ's sake! That is the whole point of the board. F-U is actually a good poster on the club board and if you take his threads seriously at all, then you really need to wake up to yourself, you're probably taking life far too seriously...

Exactly my point, we all know the truth..that you are a moron but you just won't admit it...so go on, be a man and admit you are a moron and I am sure you will get the kudo's you so richly deserve after that..:thumbsu:

Yes, we all know that, nobody is denying it :rolleyes:

You honestly think your smart by continually repeating all this don’t yah, Tip of the iceberg ha ha ha anyone would think you know something the rest of the world doesn’t...Now the fact is Jeff did one wrong thing and he has not done anything like it since, now if you want to complain about them being treated like gods then you must also be complaining about your very own Daniel Chick, can you please tell us what it was he did...

And im supposedly ignorant. Bashing female policemen is as low as it gets. Only way it could lower would be if she was disabled. Too top it off he ran away too without even apologising. No need for apologies at Freo. Bash whoever ya like :)
