AFL: COUSINS TO ANNOUNCE HIS PREFERRED CLUB

MELBOURNE, Sept 25 AAP - Fallen star Ben Cousins will reveal on grand final morning where he wants to resume his AFL playing career.

Channel Seven have announced the Brownlow Medallist and former West Coast captain will appear on their pre-game show.

Cousins, who is fighting drug addiction, is serving an AFL ban for bringing the game into disrepute and has missed a whole season.

Nominating his club of choice will only be the first step in his comeback, because Cousins also has to convince the league he is ready to play again.

"Cousins will appear on a panel ... and will answer the question the football world has been awaiting for almost 12 months," the Seven network said in a statement.

--- AAP

And yet Cousins appeared on the show and revealed nothing.

Misleading, deceptive and a pathetic con!

    Game Day is the worst AFL-related program in the history of the game. I'm surprised Cousins even appeared on such a nothing show.

    Cousins is a moron and proved it by going on that rubbish. Who wants to hear what he has to say anyway? Who wants to see an interview with a 3yo geelong supporter?

    Ch7 ruined the olympics so they thought - "why stop there? lets [censored] up GF day as well!!!"

    Why the hell didn't they just show the under 16 game that you could see in the background?

    How do you know? What if Eddie everywhere got wind of his announcement & threatened him to not announce it on 7, but to wait for 9?

    He actually never said he was going to nominate for re registering either, it was more if the afl are willing to give it to me I'll re register...........

    Agree its a crap show, but what do you expect from 7 they have the worst boundary rider, tim watson who is terrible, ox not much better, bruce who is still living 15 years ago, commetti who I loved on 9 but has fallen badly at 7, Buckley is the only worth commentator/ special comments on the whole network.

    I respectfully disagree. Tim Watson and the Ox are terrible, but Dennis Commetti and Bruce McAvaney are like the Batman and Superman partnership - absolutely special. But while their commentary is centimeter-perfect, I'm probably one of the few who think that Nathan Buckley's commentary is light-years inferior to his Channel 10 contemporary Michael Voss.

    Agree, Voss is much better, but bucks and commetti are the only decent thing on 7 and cometti is still down on form from his 9 days.

    Ricky is still the worst, seriously the guy stutters and fumbles his way through every cross to him. COMPLETE MUPPET!

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
