Press conference now

Don't know why he missed training.

Ben has a number of private and personal issues he needs to deal with. Over the last few weeks these issues have become public. Was asked if they were drug related and they declined to comment but its a sad day for West Coast when one of the champions is suspended.

BEN WAS DRUG TESTED YESTERDAY

His suspension depends on when the club believes he is right to come back, it could be weeks, months or years.
 
Listening to press conference now.

Suspended indefinitely, has issues that he needs to deal with.

A number of team rules been breached.

Issues are private and personal, not revealling what they are.

--------------------

Drug and alcohol issues me thinks.
 
Worsfold and Nisbett advised him he was suspended.

Ben has a lot of issues ahead of him, club is confident with right help and counselling he will be back.

Club once again would not comment on issues just saying they are private issues.

Will not play for East this weekend.

In fairness to the club they have taken the right route here and said he does have major problems.

Club believes he has breached his contract and that is the reason he has been suspended.

Ben has not given any explanation why he didnt turn up to training.
 
All Dalton Goodings apart from italics

We do not know why he didnt attend training there was a breach of team rules and thats why we decided to take actiion

Ben has a few private and personal issues to deal with , those issues have come to the surface

Are they drug issues

They are personal and private issues

Ben was drug tested late yesterday and wont know for several weeks for the results

Ben will come back when the private and personal issues are resolved and we decide he is fit

When Kerr was suspended we said we would be tough, this is a further example of that

Ben has a lot of issues , outstanding young man blah bllah counselling blah blah

He has a number of P&P issues

He will not play for East Freo

No knowledge of consorting with ''underworld' people

He didnt turn up to training yesterday

We said they would suspend players if they reoffend and we have , he has been suspended for reoffending for missing training????

He has breached his contract by acting unprofessionally, this is why has been given all the time to sort himself out

No explanation for missing training

Oooh " was there something happen between weights session and training session...

Thats all thanks
 
After all the other off-field crap that the E-girls have had to deal with over the last 12-18 months, and all the flak they've copped (quite rightfully, too, IMHO) for NOT being seen to send strong signals to the playing group that off-field crap, and breaking team rules, will not be tolerated, it's good to see that they've FINALLY developed some sort of backbone and suspended Cousins indefinitely.

Let's see just how long the suspension lasts!
 
Ben is apologetic, expresses those sentiments to Worsfold.

Dalton admitted its a sad day for the club

All from 6pr
 
ABC radio just said it is probably for missing training on Monday without permission. If this is true then it doesn't sound serious. Hopefully he is back for round 1.

Perhaps your mob should change their name to the West Coast Ostriches (nice continuation of the bird brain theme). Look I know it is really tiresome and boorish to say, I told you so, but I really did tell so many ostriches so.
