Cousins Hamstring!!

[STC]

Frankly, I don't currently approve of you as a person either. Tell me, how does that stop you being a person or alter your personage? If it does neither then my opinion of your personage is useless and by extension so is your opinion of Cousin's personage.

Whatever you say. You expressed your opinion and I expressed mine. Welcome to the internet.

How many of Richmonds new members will be cutting up there memberships? What a con.

Well I guess we will all see tomorrow night once Geelong smash you. Oh wait that's right you guys are 'under done'.
Already conjuring pathetic excuses for your Premiership Defense.

So there is a God!

If there's a God, cretins like you would have been stillbirth.

 

[damochandler]

not good at all. i wonder if he was the one to make the decision to go out in the last qtr

 

[efcboy]

this was very predictable - i don't feel sorry for player or club. anyone of club doctor, coach and player (cousins) should have known after tightness not to go back on. blatant stupidity.

as for cuz there is little doubt he has caused many others including family and friends pain and suffering through his off field antics in recent years. its time to suck up the disappointment and relate this to how he disappointed everyone in his life.

and for tiger fans thinking this recruit would propel them into the 8! dreaming...I'm wondering what will happen first - Cousins return from injury or Wallace sacked!

 

[tandino]

To all those people who were bagging people for saying they didn't want Cuzzy at their club because his hammy was dodgy, we were right & you were wrong.

I'm jumping on that bandwagon.

I'm laughing at all the people getting upset at the people laughing about it.

Sure, you can be upset about it if you want to, but who cares if other people are laughing about it? What do you expect with what the drug addict has been through?

It's just an injury, which was a very stupid one after him knowing it wasn't good. It's not like he got shot.

HTFU.

poor bloke, what a tragedy.

SEN 1116 just reported that Ben Cousins has done his hamstring 6 times in his last 12 games he played. Ouch

 

[Dry Rot]

As a footy fan, I was looking forward to his comeback regardless of who he plays for.

I can't believe the glee from some here over an injury to a player, whatever his background or history.

 

[Skids]

Well it's good proof of a vicious demon. Which is what God seems to be.

 

[Silvagnis]

I don't like Cousins, but I felt sorry for him watching that replay and seeing his hamstring "go".

Though it serves Wallace right for playing Cousins without a proper preparation.

Wallace is gone.

 

[Roughie]

A real shame for Cuz, its terrible seeing any player get injured. I hope the medical staff were 100% on Cousins, and not played him just because of the outside pressures.

 

[Big Jols]

send me a postcard

You dont kick a guy when he's down

Setanta O'hailpin does

Wallace is gone.

something similar happened to dew last season. cuz is fitter than stu was then.

he can still be ready by the end of the season, as long as wallace manages him properly...

Inspired drafting by the Richmond football club, you can tell they are gonna go places with thier inspirational drafting and superb medical team they have down there .

The Tigers never played one AFL debutant tonight..Carlton played 3 ...hmm i wonder which club drafts for the future.

How is rewording my comment to you a refutation? Or did you miss something there?

Such is life........

I'm sure there will be plenty more news on Cuz in the morning.
Shocking for him and I wish him well on his recovery.

The decision for him to go back on though- *shakes head*? Why would you risk him, especially in Rd 1 and your side is being pantsied?

 

[King Elvis]

I just said he was over 30 & had dodgy hammys & got told I had no idea, his hammy was fine, hhhmmmm who was right?

Well done mantis.

Gotta be one of the achievements of your life that.

Just out of interest. Can I see your predictor device? I'd love to know how much the premier (whichever team it is) will win by (whatsoever that number be). I assume by the tenor of your comment that you are over this issue and with your knowledge (given by predictor device or sheer brilliance) I can thus be rich after the last Saturday in September by virtue of the bet I will make presently on your infallible advice (with your money of course, because you're over the issue).

 

[King Elvis]

Richmong are a joke of an organisation.

Tell me how this is logical;

- Player is over 30 years old.
- Player hasn't played a game of footy for 18 months.
- Player has a history of hamstring injuries.
- Player feels his hamstring tweaking in the third quarter.
- Medical staff give him a rubdown.
- Team is 10+ goals down.
- Coach sends said player back on.



That is ****ing pathetic.

 

[saladin]

cousins was always going to be a risk on several levels. it was part of the deal. but the circumstances surrounding the injury are utterly contemptible and incomprehendable. that was blatant incompetence from the team officials, both medical and coaching.

 

[TassieSaint]

Never good for a bloke to get injured but this does make me feel good for us not picking him up. Did shit all before it as well.

Hopefully he makes it back though.

 

[madvass]

U gotta feel for the cousin doco producers - "edit that out"
