Enough

[chook2734]

I'm over Ben Cousins and the weagles and all their rubbish that has been going on for too long now. I really don't care about any of it (other than it is obviously sad to see someone screw up their life so badly, but that is Cousins' own choice). To the Freo players and the FFC - don't let this happen to our great club. If ANY player is taking drugs it's time to come clean - deal with your problem or get out. As much as I'd like a premiership, I don't think it's worth going through what our friends down the road have in the past 2 years. The time for zero tolerance has arrived.

I guess we should be thankful our players are a little more discreet with their recreational activities.

Im laughing at the Eagles and loving every moment of it, as far as theyre concerned. However, I do feel for the guy himself and his welfare.

some of them are even trying to compare Jeff to Cousins. Oh well, at least we will be able to square up the ledger of derby wins for another hmmmm let's say 5 years?

The whole sorry state of affairs just won't go away. I sincerely hope Harves pulls aside the ENTIRE Freo' squad as has a word to the lads to keep a low profile and behave themselves. This saga isn't going to fade away any time soon...My Schudenfraude almost makes me feel shameful... almost

Heck, it didn't take any time to make wikipedia

maybe i am a bad person, in fact i probably am, but i was looking forward to next years dockers home derby, so i could really let cousins have it, to let him know that 90% of australia thinks he is a c..k, wont happen now, and his problems seem like they are really getting the best of him, which even i wouldnt wish on anyone

I think installing Harvey as coach will help your club. He has the backing and isn't afraid to suspend players who he think are doing something shifty. Atleast he has the balls to tackle the issue head on, unlike Worsfold who knew what was going on and did nothing about it.

i hope your right hustla, because woosha seems like an uncompromising sort of fellow, and he was getting lied to his face, im not sure woosh had that much control over everything. the board on the other hand. nisbett, gooding etc, they have more to answer for, and i think their handling will eventually lead to the eagles losing draft picks

Donno, Worsfold would have been around other "alleged drug takers" at the Eagles in the era he was in. So it isn't likely it would be that surprising to him I think if the allegations are correct.

Exactly, I think people get Wooshas on field personality mixed up with his off field one. He knew the culture of West Coast, he has been around the club for most of his life.

We're hoping that Harves is the right tonic for the Freo' Football club as well.

If it makes you feel any better, pretty much every Eagles fan is over the rubbish too

 

[poshman]

The West online says Cousins sacked! though no official statement by the club yet!

I get the feeling that Woosa would have been quite happy to let Benny go quite some time ago, but he isn't in charge down at the weagles, regardless of what they try to tell everyone. Nisbett is the head honcho and he can't see any flaws in his Ben - they've let their personal feelings get in the way of doing the right thing by the club for too long.
