If Adam Goodes was caught with an ecstasy tablet would you really be carrying on the same way?
I don't condone anything Ben Cousins has done, but I can understand why some Eagles fans, especially the young ones, would be more than a bit confused at what's happening.
As for the Eagles' just cutting him loose, I would say that would be the absolutely worst thing for them to do. Sure he may never play football again, but to be cut him adrift from the club he's been at for his entire adult life would be a devastating blow right now.
People should temper their anger, and for some their joy, with the fact that the AFL world and WCE as his employer still owe Cousins a duty of care.
No you're the one with no idea. If you think duty of care is a black and white issue then you are an idiot.
I thought the way the Eagles handled yesterday was most admirable. They might not have many friends on here judging by the blind hatred espoused time and again, but they have some impressive people in charge of the club, and the way they've offered to continue to support Cousins is most commendable.Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.

All those posts you've quoted merely back up my previous post, and most were in response to people including yourself celebrating the fact he'd relapsed.
Just because I wasn't popping champagne corks with you doesn't mean I support his actions.
What is your answer to Sanecow's question?"As everyone knows our style of football is defensive and unattractive, and as such I have completely forgotten how to mark or kick over the years" - Brett Kirk

You shouldn't be feeling sympathy for him. That's my point.

You have no sympathy for someone who loses a friend and/or father-figure, who just happens to be one of the people who helped get Cousins into rehab earlier in the year?"As everyone knows our style of football is defensive and unattractive, and as such I have completely forgotten how to mark or kick over the years" - Brett Kirk

He died of an overdose of drugs and alcohol.

whatever.
I fully admitted that the only person I've put down here was ben cousins.
I haven't called anyone an idiot (or agreed with anyone who called someone an idiot).
I don't need to resort to personal attacks (like some of the people on this board).Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
