I am a WCE supporter through and through. However, calls for Cousins to return are misguided to say the least.
Firstly, there is the risk highlighted so well above - if Cousins stuffs up again it will set the club back 10 yrs. No player is worth that risk.
Secondly, WCE's supporters must...
Mate - Cousins running amock during schoolies (which occurs during the non-testing period) would be an absolute disaster for Cousins and any club associated with him. Talk about putting him in temptation's way......
As a WCE fan I find this attitude totally misguided and short sighted. Yes we want to win flags but by taking the stand "it doesn't matter what players do off the field - lets turn a blind eye" a club actually opens themselves up to more failure as sponsors (the lifeblood of a club along with...
Why is everyone quick to blame Chick for Cousins' behaviour. I'm not saying he isn' guilty but how do we now he's the driving force behind Cousins' spiral. For all we know Cousins may be the leader and he's the bad influence on Chick.
Personally I would be gald to see both of them (and...
Sorry but I can't condone keeping him - he must be sacked. After saying that though he is one sick puppy (even if it is at his doing) and needs help.
This is an opportunity for the AFL and Eagles to practice the line they preach in that they look after their players welfare (where they have...
Its only a subtle difference but that scenario is fine until the last bit - its the bit where Agent says they are doing it to scare off club Y. The answer should have been (and too late now as Connors has shot his mouth off) just put the price on your head and don't say anything else.
If free agency was in and Judd had sat out the year he may not qualify as one of the regular suggestions when free agency is taked about is that players service would impact on whether they qualify. In Judd's case if he sat out the year he would not have any service per say. In that case he'd...
Why is anyone off limits. The way I see it is that players are only off limits if what else has to be given as well as that player is too high (ie the overall trade is too unattractive). Surely any of thsoe players would not be untouchable if all the club had to give was them (ie Thomas/...
Re: If Judd chooses the Pies and West Coast won't deal, should we take the AFL to court for Free Age
Firstly I think free agency is not a good idea - and that's coming from a WCE fan which is one of the teams to most benefit from it. The draft system is a unique system that levels the comp.. I...
Lets all see reason. Unless Judd lied at the start the fact he wants to go to a contender means $1.5m is not possible as you can't be a contender and pay one of your players $1.5m. If you do pay this you other 35 blokes will all be on minimum wage and opposition teams will be able to put 5...
As something that hasn't been put out there yet - and I know its probably out of left field.
If Judd says I want to go to (say) the Pies and a deal can't get done for whatever reason (and more so if the Pies aren't willing to offer a fair trade), and Judd has huge aversion to going to the...
I'm a WCE fan and an am absolutely gutted. But you can't heap shit on Judd for this. Yes he's our captain and yes the club has done heaps for him. But he's done heaps for us as well (he won us a flag for God's sake) and pretty much held the club together this year when most of our other stars...
Everyone says Judd has everyone over a barrel by nominating for the PSD. That's rubbish. Its a two way street. If he says it (say "collingwwod" he wants to go to and the Eagles hold out for too much the Eagles lose him for nothing but at the saqme time Judd dodesn't get what he wants (ie...
