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.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      After five consecutive defeats, the Demons have now notched up back-to-back victories, comfortably accounting for the Tigers in the traditional ANZAC Eve clash. They surged to a commanding 44-point lead early in the final quarter before easing off the pedal, resting skipper Max Gawn and conceding the last four goals of the game to close out a solid 20-point win.
