Total Tiger said:I don't. I hope his kids find peace. A junkie is a junkie. The further he can be away from our players, the better. Let him go annoy the West Coke players. He was with us for 5 seconds anyway.
James said:I think we may have let Cousins down. Don’t really know but unless he was using during his time at the club, the decision to let him go (rather than put him on staff to continue in a Hodge like role), immediately made him vulnerable.
The AFL has special rules in place for players who have issues n they do not record strikes against while the player with known issues has medical intervention to assist them through their issues. WADA would have had absolutely *smile* all to do with Cuz issues.James said:It seems clear that he was using before he arrived and again immediately after he left.
While he was with us he would have been monitored closely by I think it was WADA at that time? I understand that only the player and club Doc were privy to testing results. And those results were meant to be confidential.
The rest is speculation.
You are suggesting an agreement between AFL and Richmond to allow Cousins to continue to play in a period when he was detected to be regularly useing. That’s a huge allegation.TigerMasochist said:The AFL has special rules in place for players who have issues n they do not record strikes against while the player with known issues has medical intervention to assist them through their issues.

No need for speculation at all,unless you're happy to play ostrich n pretend nothing ever happened, everyone knows the problems Cuz had right through that period, it was simply sat on by everyone concerned in the hope that somehow he'd get himself sorted.
