Can't be forced to go anywhere.
Bens a big boy and a no show today indicates that he no longer gives a ****. Jail won't help - he will be feted and he will still be getting the drugs inside - may even get some more tacky tatts. Life is looking decidedly pathetic now and unfortunately not much anyone else can now do.
Maybe you are privy to some info, but I don't see what more his old man could have done. I am only speaking on behalf of a friend who talks to him.
The one issue with this is if he just goes through the motions for 6 months and then gets back on it as soon as he is out. If he doesn't put his hand up and actually want help there is nothing to stop him doing this.Needs to spend atleast 6mths in a secure rehab. If he can't beat his addiction, I fear for his next headline (after he surrenders to police that is on his warrant if the magistrate gives him that chance).

Mainy was completely different to Cousins. The joke is you bringing that up in this thread.I'm still amazed wce continue to have the mainwarring wing. What a joke
Mainy was completely different to Cousins. The joke is you bringing that up in this thread.
Have you not read about the influence mainy had on cousins?
Also what kind of message does it send

Why is the joke on him, Mainy died from a cocktail of drugs overdose and has a wing named after him.
Cousins is a self confessed junkie whose life is spiralling out of control,
You weren't one of the people holding up the " we applaud what you have overcome Ben " banners were you ? He really sucked you blokes in.
... aaaaaand he's surrendered.
I found a certain biography in a Subiaco bookstore of all places last year.the biggest issue for mine, is that out of worsfolds own words, cousins repeated the exact same speech word for word when he was confronted about his drug use, that mainy used when he was confronted about his off-field issues
then you have mckenna on open mike the other day saying the club tried to get mainy to go sober when he was playing, played a terrible 3 weeks, so they said to go back to what he was doing and they turned a blind eye to it
now they're immortalising one of the blokes who helped instil a poor and reckless culture that has affected the lives of many young players (now retired)
the reality is nisbert didnt want to deal with the issue back then and he still doesnt want to deal with it and tries to avoid it at every chance. gets very uncomfortable when its brought up
'Straylia's Tall Poppy Syndrome at its finest itt.

The irony in the following passage is sad beyond belief.
And no - I am in no way suggesting the Father is in any way responsible for the son's demise.
