Odds on Ben not making the reunion?

Odds on Ben not making the reunion?

I heard a few weeks ago he hasn't RSVP'd yet.

EDIT: I think it was mentioned during the Barrett "investigation".

 

[javaguice]

Sounds like he had a little prang and was directing traffic. Tried to get a lift with some bloke on a bike. Meh.

 

[kane249]

There are people who are willing to follow directions from Ben Cousins when he's standing in the middle of Canning Highway? And we let them drive?

You see a guy standing in the middle of the road directing traffic, you may not realise who it is immediately.

 

[Godfather32]

But he didn't did he? Yeah not unlike WOPOL to waste resources like that is it? My point still stands. He's not the bad guy everyone makes out to be. Does have issues though feel sorry for him.

I don't think anyone really beleives he's a bad guy, just a guy who's lost the plot due to drugs. Most seem to feel sympathy for him.

I get the feeling if Ben or someone had been hurt you would have blamed WAPOL for not acting to stop him....

Yeah ok cool.

 

[Here2tellyouwhy]

Shame to hear this.
You just know if something bad happens the flog media will tear it to shreds and ask for the cup back.
Would like to see the club and his family intervene at some level.

 

[ioppolo]

It's a shame because he's apparently one of the nicest blokes you could meet. Heard this from multiple people who've met him

 

[mattyc75]

Really get annoyed at the people who are supplying him with gear and enabling his habit.

If they want to make a living by preying on innocent people and ruining lives they should have to spend five years getting a law degree like the rest of us.

More opportunity to destroy lives as a teacher. Cheaper degrees, less time. You don't even need basic literacy or numeracy either.

True but if he kicks another 20 odd goals in the next half of the season. He would have to get it

Depends if "having a punchable face" and "ability to draw high contact" count as RS criteria.

Darcy Parish would have to be a chance. Ultra impressive.

Yeah he's paying $9 .... If Sicily kicks 40 to 45 goals would be hard to look past him..Hogan kicked 44

Usually player's that are good have punchable faces. Would love to Snot Mitchell ....

I can attest to this too
Met him at work a few years ago

No shit.


Except for Paddy McGinnity. Not sure what happened there

So from the AFL fan footy survey, only 57% of the public want Jobe Watson's Brownlow stripped from him.

Pending the appeal, he was found to have taken a banned substance in the year he won the medal, isn't that pretty much an open and shut case as to why he hands it back?

Alot of that would be Essendon fans in denial #standbyhird

 

[RookiePick]

I just means 43% of people don't want Mitchell and Cotchin to have a Brownlow.

I have talked to a lot of people who don't see any disconnect between a drug cheat holding the leagues fairest and best award over the past few years though. Just further evidence that a lot of people are stupid IMO.
