THE RUMOUR FILE

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

Oh, and tell them Yze_magic sent you

I'm assuming that West Coast has tried to trade Cousins and no club wanted him, then West Coast delists him.. If so, that doesn't make too much sense, as if one club is not willing to take a punt on a superstar, albeit a wayward one.

I will be amazed if Cousins goes into the PSD.

Amaze me YM, amaze me!

What is with the Dees history of stuffing around our ruck division? We really need to fix it! Here are the top 5 ruck stuff ups in the last 10 years.

5 - Getting rid of Stynes so white could be no. 1 forgetting the fact that a backup champion ruckman is quite handy.

4 - picking up paul johnson for a pick the ended up being Matt Rosa!

3 - Letting Jolly go to Sydney and become the half of the best ruck duo in the afl.

2 - Watching Simmo go to tigers and almost have an all Australian year. (For Craig ellis no less, who missed the first few games of the season for belting Nieta the year before!)

1 - Well there is no 1 yet, but with jamar trades looming and a very old and tired jeff white I feel like the no. 1 spot is about to be filled out. Can't wait to see what they do to keep the ruck curse going!

We haven't had a Nm 1 Ruckman since Strawbs O'Dwyer in the late 80s. Stynes and White are both Followers. We did get Dunn for Jolly but I would have preferred to trade White meself. Jolly and Simmo left because Daniher just did not believe in playing 2 rucks so they were only getting very modest game time. Johnson is very athletic and skilled for his height - needs to work on his overhead marking - shapes more as Q Lynch type forward than Ruck. Its hard to rate Rosa given he has played in an amazing midfield but he is certainly not a great kick. Even if we get Meeson for mine we still have to keep Jamar. As above Johnson is more forward than ruck so we do need at least 3 rucks on our list.

agree entirely, johnson is a forward. Great long kick, can be used around the ground at times. Dont forget he won the jj liston after playing only 11 games!

[Dee*ceiving 1,674]

Breach of said contract?

Correct. If he has breached the contract in some way he could be de-listed

I would assume the Eagles would look to offload him in a trade next week but assuming they fail in that endeavour its not improbable that he could be de-listed. It was stated this week that Chris Mainwaring and the Eagles had a major falling out at some stage this year and not doubt Ben Cousins would have been invlved in that is some way considering their friendship.

They could end up with 3 top 20 picks in this years draft and might be looking to start fresh while their 4 main KPPs are still quite young (Glass, Cox, Hunter, Hansen) in an attempt to have a crack at a flag in 2-4 years.

On top of that Ben has been one headache after another for the last 24 months. One would think the saints may look to land him to re-create the old Gardiner-Cousins show. What a ticking time bomb that could be

[deanox 9,910]

As if Ben Cousins will get delisted.

Yze_Magic - I've been a member on this site a little over 24 hours and counted at least a dozen rubbish posts by you. Your ability to post dribble is astounding.

Please lift your game.

there is a reason why yze_magic was recently voted the most entertaining poster on this site. you're right you have only been around 24 hours. learn a bit about the posters before you criticise them.

he has a beautiful left foot kick doesnt he? follows through nicely, drops the ball well...

[Bring-Back-Powell 14,816]

I'm not supposed to say this..but I will. Yze magic. You are the biggest sh$@*(@&t talker I have ever heard.

All last year, you blabbering about how melbourne will win the grand final after losing 8 straight and then that whole judd speech and now this about cousins.

You are clueless matey.

CLUELESS I SAY !!

At least Yze Magic has something interesting to say and you get a bit of a laugh out of him, and you know 75% of the time he's taking the [censored].

Sorry are you his boyfriend? I think he's old enough to defend himself. There's a fine line between taking the [censored] and making a dik of yourself, which Yze_Magic repeatedly crosses.

Anyway lets move on. Yze_Magic think long and hard about your next post. It will be judged on validity, humour and insightfulness. Try and repay the faith shown in you by Powelly.

Pull your head in, Yze_Magic is a very funny and passionate poster on this site, and you've been here 2 days. If it was all serious on this site we all wouldn't come here as often.

I've got a feeling that this poster has been around a lot longer...

Just so you know, he ignores crtiticism.

Take it with the proverbial grain.

Lighten up mate no point in abusing someone especially when u haven't been around here for even a week maybe u should read other peoples posts and u'll find they have alot of speculation and possible trade rumours so yze magic is doing nothing wrong ur just being an idoit

Maybe u should post something worthwhile on here.

[Geddy Lee 582]

The thought had entered my mind.

[redman 28]

Paul Haselby may be entering the PSD, he was the next big thing a few years ago? Might be worth a look?

Sam Power has asked to be traded...

Mitch Hahn & Jordan McMahon still havent signed a new contract... leaving it late arent they...

One of Mark Blake or Steven King maybe on the move too...

All interesting...

[Gorgoroth 12,942]

Whats haselby's pace like?

[WonnaJurah 5]

didnt haselby have op?

[IWAP 170]

Whats haselby's pace like?

It can't be as bad as people make it out to be. He represented Fremantle in the Grand Final sprint

[dee-luded 2,959]

Whats haselby's pace like?

Like taking honey from a fridge.

[dazzledavey36 54,827]

Mark Jamar would be quicker then hasleby

[ChaserJ 5,083]

It can't be as bad as people make it out to be. He represented Fremantle in the Grand Final sprint

Didn't represent them very well. He is a ball magnet though.

[shimmo 0]

Yes it is true

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

YZE_MAGIC, didn't you bag someone on this very thread I believe for posting garbage? Quite hypocritical of you I say. Cousins will not go in PSD. Where did you get this information????????

[Demons 32 235]

If Hasleby was around PSD pick 3. Id be [censored] if we didn't take him

[ChaserJ 5,083]

From Wikipedia:

Whilst not the quickest player, he is noted for his quick hands and strong marking ability for a player of his size.

since the beginning of the 2002 season, Hasleby has not missed a game, despite suffering at times from a hernia-like injury during the 2005 season [2]. In seasons 2003 and 2004 he was ranked in the top 10 in the league in total disposals (kicks plus handballs).

Well well listen to the demon faithful object.

How long I've been here is irrelevant. Each post should be judged on its own merits. I didn't realise there was a hierarchy among fools.

Unlike you cretins I'm not here to make friends, or start rumours.

Cousin to be delisted - Yze_magic heard that one from his mum, who overheard it on the train yesterday. Don't believe everything you here mate.

[Demon Disciple 12,118]

If Hasleby was around PSD pick 3. Id be [censored] if we didn't take him

Well i suppose it depends on the $$$ that he puts on himself. That's why Freo are reluctant to give him a new contract.

He reminds me of Bruce, gets plenty of it but doesn't hurt teams as much as he should, ain't that fast, kicking ain't his best attribute. Would we need another one of these types???
