General AFL thread 2016

Cousins had addiction issues that can be managed pretty well for a year or two like fat people losing weight before ballooning back much harder to manage dickhead.

Really. I don't believe that to be slightly true based on a very bad experience. We did the right thing for sure not getting him.

I think Cousins may have won us a GF and then hit the drugs again but Fev needed to bomb out of the AFL to get insight into his issues

 

[Joffaboy]

We should have got fev for the same reason why we should have got Cousins.

We get Cousins we win 2 flags, its that simple.

Unmittigated bollocks

Reckon Cousins would have got on the juice, implicated Gardiner who was at the Saints, embroiled the Saints in back page scandals and innuendo and we would have even made the finals in 09 or 10, resulting in Riewoldt leaving for Hawthorn who then won every GF since.

Was on it the night he got drafted by Richmond

 

[Mowman]

We did not want him at Stkilda

All hypothetical now but despite his problems, Cousins was a big game player. If fit and firing in 09 he would have made a massive difference.

Once Lenny was tagged out of the game, a player like Cousins would have run amok.

So would have Judd, but we didn't have him either.

Irrelevant... Judd was never available.

Irrelevant... Judd was never available.

Technically he was, but we took Ball instead.

Are you arguing with yourself VDS66?

That's failing to take the baggage he brought and we all know the MG cousins thing.

Yes.

Sadly I can't press "like" for my posts.

Someone's gotta humour the joint.

Baggage shmaggage... it's all about the Silverware!

Yes I 100% agree and that is why I said what I said. I'm still looking for the SC space to pay him anyway.

People forget how many soft tissues he had at Richmond. He wouldnt have played enough for ross to back him in (see maxy)

Except cousins wasnt playing in the midfield by the time he got to richmond

But he had enough aerobic capacity to evade police, poor call by the Tigers to not include him in the guts.

Don't think you will be able to use them with the numbers blackened out.

 

[Ekomaira]

Josh Kelly is so silky. one of the best kicking styles in the AFL

 

[hayes]

I'm sure WC are spewing they had to put up with Cousins and his addiction when they won a flag. I would've shouted him if he helped us get one.

That would have been great after the School Girl, Sleeping pills in NZ and Andy Lovett issues...
