A BLUNT warning from Ben Cousins rings loud for Richmond's Jack Riewoldt as he sets about smashing the perception he is too cocky to be a team leader.
Hehe. Interesting article where Ben Cousins and DH asked Jack to tone it down in the celebration.

IT's a shame that Mark Stevens can't even distinguish the difference between Nick and Jack.

total rubbish, riewoldt has been a fantastic leader! everyone in the afl should watch how nahas and riewoldt celebrate and try to get the team fired up after a goal and learn from it.

I'm really starting to get sick of all these pathetic articles coming round.

I'm thinking that you guys are reading the article all wrong. It makes the point (that Jack acknowledges) that Jack was over exuberant in his celebrations (I read that to be acting like a ********) and Cousins pulled him into line. Hardwick also dragged Jack for carrying on. I didn't see it so can't comment on it but I would hate for our blokes to carry on like some of those prima donna Port players.

FWIW, that is great leadership on Cousin's behalf and a great sign of maturity that Jack acknowledges what he did is not on and taken it on board to not carry on like that again.

The article isn't meant to be having a crack at Jack or Cousins but highlighting the positives of both.

Let's not be precious about these things boys and girls.
