I wasnt supposed to say this, but I will

Ben Cousins will be delisted next week by the Eagles

And will definitely be in the PSD

So a good chance we will get him at pick 3.

Even if that is true, which I highly doubt, Richmond will most certainly grab him at #1.

Carlton obviously won't take him because of Judd.

Oh and PLEASE don't take Jolly back. He's as useful as the rest of the rucks we currently have.

I lvoe it how you complain about not doing anything to try to fix our rucks, yet say that we shouldn't have traded a high 2nd round pick for Johnson.

Jolly is an ordinary footballer. Wanted to leave, so we traded him while we still had him under contract. We traded him for a first round pick, which was used for Lynden Dunn, not Bell.

I also like it how you say that he is part of the best ruck duo in the league, yet then name 4 others who are better!!!

Simmonds also wanted to leave for more opportunities. There is a myth that he was traded for just Craig Ellis. He was traded for Ellis and pick 26 in a three way deal with Freo and the Dogs (Daniel Bandy being the other player involved). We didn't use this pick well, which is why people ignore it. But the deal in isolation was not that bad.

Jolly and Simmonds were victims of Jeff White's ability and ethic. He was such a good ruckman, and he was able to run out a whole game which was incredible. He was also very durable, which meant that the opportunities for the second ruckman were always limited. They both asked to be traded to get more game time.

We have not been hurt in the past in the ruck because White is such a warrior. But with White's career coming to an end soon, we need to develop ruckmen to come through the ranks.

Fair point Bob. Although a few things...as far as I know and I may be wrong, statistically Jolly and Everitt were the strongest for a ruck duo. As far as marks or goals I'm sure Port or Geelong had them. But this whole thing about Jolly being crap is very odd. I wouldn't call him a crap player, not when it is so hard to find mobile ruckmen.

Also PJ was very new when we got him and had done little in the ruck. I don’t see him ever taking over from White or whoever we get. And we never really groomed him as a ruck.

The simmonds trade seems terrible to me and always has. Just my opinion. And yes white is a warrior but football has changed. When he used to play full games it was not uncommon for ruckmen to play on the field from start to finish. But not anymore, he has been struggling with the workload, and just like friaser did it for a year and stuffed his body I think that whites time will be up quicker then it should.

Not gana happen.. They lost part A of there champion midfield team, too lose cousins would be fatal for the eagles. Word around Wcoast is that the young boys look up to cousins due to his work rate at training and on game day

You are going to look like a real idiot when he is delisted then, arent you?

And meanwhile, I will look like the genius that I am

But we both knew that already

Sorry about the Jolly/Bell/Dunn mistake, all I remebered is we did all right out of it. But you hit the nail right on the head about White.

So not only will the Eagles let themselves be shafted by those cheating pricks at carlscum for ju&$, but they will delist this bloke with no compensation? Your posts are always interesting to read, but contain more fluff than fact.

It wouldn't be fair if they kept Kerr and delisted Cousins, atleast Cousins came out and admitted he had a problem and has tried to get back on track, gotta give the bloke a chance. But if anything fishy comes out of this Mainwairing death I'd say his career will be over as he will have no credibility

I'm pretty sure that Cousins hasn't admitted to anything.

Heard something about him not being ready to admit to anything because his therapist said he wasn't quite at the stage to apologise and right his wrongs.

Of course, the Weagles rushed him back into a eagles jumper in the mean time, so not everyone taking his recovery too seriously...

Cousins asked for a drug test straigt away so he is most likely clean.

He did pass a test reported on news tonight, but

He could easily pass a Urine Drug Screen because they don't test for MDMA ( Ecstacy )

Yes it is true

He will be delisted next week and is going to put himself in the PSD

Someone go and post this on BigFooty, seeing as it will be the only rumour that is posted there that turns out to be true

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.

    2024 Player Reviews: #2 Jacob van Rooyen

    Strong marking youngster who plays forward and relief ruck, continued to make significant strides forward in his career path. The Demons have high hopes for van Rooyen as he stakes his claim to become an elite attacking forward.

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

    Date of Birth: 12 November 1999 Height: 197cm Games MFC 2024: 20 Career Total: 82 Goals MFC 2024: 9 Career Total: 28 Brownlow Medal Votes 3 Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level.

    Originally an NBL basketballer with the Brisbane Bullets, he moved across town in 2019 to the AFL Lions where he played 19 games before crossing to Melbourne where he was expected to fill a role as a back up ruckman/key forward. Unfortunately, didn’t quite get there although he did finish equal sixth in Casey’s best and fairest award. Date of Birth: 23 February 1999 Height: 198cm Games CDFC: 14 Goals CDFL: 13

    Sadly, had to wrap up a great career in midstream on the back of multiple concussions which culminated in the Maynard hit in the 2023 Qualifying Final. His loss to the club was inestimable over and above his on field talent given his character and leadership qualities, all of which have been sorely missed.
