The epic untold story of Ben Cousins - the footy god and hero to fans across the country whose life went dramatically off the rails. Now he comes clean and nothing is off limits.

    A complex character. On one hand he took his life from the penthouse to the ****ehouse .

    Yet while he was at at Richmond he was a terrific support to a young man of my acquaintance who was suffering from severe mental problems

    My Foxtel TV guide says your are correct. Interesting that Channel 7's own social media got it wrong.

    Even the good of heart,  can go the wrong way in they're own life.

    I am sure he is a good person.  simply struggling.

     

    Same could be said of Gablett snr.

    That's fantastic to hear BBO. Watching the show now. The show itself is all over the place (not Ben's fault) with no real narrative arc.....imo

    Really?   (re Ablett)  I doubt that Alisha Horan's parents would agree with you.

    Alicia Horan's parents would beg to differ.

    GAS should feel ashamed for the rest of his life

    Edit. Beat me to it bingers

    I've written this before, how when I stayed at a motel in Mudgee I chatted with the manager. He was a W.A. lad, organising a local rugby match. I said, A W.A boy promoting rubgy. He replied, When in Mudgee you do Mudgee. He then said, Don't you worry, I'm an AFL man. My brother played full back in the first WA Premiership side. It was February, 2018, around the time Essendon was in the news. I mentioned it. He replied, Essendon got sprung. All clubs have a drug culture. He said it was rife at West Coast from Day one. He made mention of a certain player who apparently played in the side as well. He's still involved in the game at a high level, at, shall we say, a certain other club...

    Winning masks or makes a lot of bad stuff go away.  The Club severely failed with a group of young men.

    And so did the AFL itself.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
