If true, and I highly, highly doubt it is, I have a couple of abnormal psychology text books to throw Swanny and Icke's way, doesn't paint a good picture

Disclaimer or not, I can't believe you succumbed and glorified the suggestion with one of your own...where's the 'tsk tsk tsk' face?

It is one of those unique situations where, I think there's only a 3% chance we will select Ben Cousins this Saturday, but if we do I won't be surprised. If that makes sense.

Its one of those unique situations where you think its 3% but the reality is 0%...

Pretty unique...

Has the club ever come out and made a statement either way about Ben Cousins?

Has the club ever come out and made a statement either way about Ben Cousins?

Ratten said something once, that Cousin's wouldn't fit into our policy of drafting 100 game players, or something along those lines, can't quite remember.

"Does that take away from the gametime that Bryce Gibbs might get in the midfield or someone else? That's probably why we didn't go down that path," he said.

"It would be great for the romance to get back with Juddy and play there, but it's about what we can do as a football club and our needs and I don't think Ben fits that."

JUst got back from a meeting in the CBD and can confirm that this is looking very likely.
Blues are intending to use Pick 80 on Cousins this Saturday, and have a 1 year deal wiith around 250k as renumeration for Ben.

The contract has clauses that stipulate that Ben can be fired and paid a pro-rata figure in case of any indescretions. There are also other behavioural conditions and a 1 year option if Cousins plays at least 12 games during the H&A season.

Blues are keeping a big eye on Ben, and are prepared to sack him if he proves to be a bad influence on any of the younger Blues stars.

Was this the same meeting where you heard the Judd to Carlton deal had fell through ? ASW

there has been nothing official, but behind closed doors there is something going on...

not too sure if im happy about this... having said that if we are to draft him we are confident enough to be able to control him...

I just got back from a meeting in the CBD and when I was at JB Hifi they had a poster of two african american Cousins who played Blues music. And I have it on good authority that the owner of that store knows someone who is related to one of Carlton's board director's nanny. They wouldn't have a poster like that unless the deal was already done.
Welcome Benny.

 

[BlueYoss]

[thylacine60]

You're just asking to become extinct with a diet like that...
