Can we all agree that Caro was outrageously stupid to ask Benny if the AFLPA boss job is a bludge? Is this guy going to say yes to that after he's held it for years. Of course not! What a moron.
Anyway, at least Caro admitted that Cousins' hospitalisation had nothing to do with drinking. Which is funny because if he was warned last year, and she knows this, then she conveniently waited until he went to hospital for unrelated stomach issues, and then dropped the claims. Or made them up.
In regards to the innuendo flying about his summer, Benny shot that down. He said that leading up to christmas Cousins had some thumb surgery, then had some personal issues. The coaches had words with him about his lack of effort at training, and he improved and obviously is in great shape now. Said they were very satisfied about Cuz's summer.
For those that didn't watch, Benny also had a big rant about how Cousins just isn't that big an issue at the club. He is one player of many. Said the media have an obsession with him, but that the club don't need to hold secret meetings about him, don't need to have regular consults and talk to the leadership group. He is just another player.
At this Caro backpedalled and said that she didn't say that they held meetings for him, that they just warned him of his drinking. Benny again said that hadn't happened in his time, and that she was implying the club held meetings, which she was IMO.
Anyway, Caro pushed and said she could guarantee that he was told last year. Gale said it hadn't happened in his time at the club, or any of the current employees.
Did well, great to watch, I was particularly happy with how he said he was proud, not embarassed of the leaked plan. Good on ya Benny
