Although Hislop is only 20 I fear that Cousins might not the best person for him to have around.
I don't know why Polak/Cousins turned you away at a bar one night, but don't take your frustration out on them.
So you're essentially saying Polak chose to get hit by a tram.
You're a joke.
Lol at using Hislop to support your argument... he's only 20
In that case, Polak cant be rookie listed. You cant have it both ways.
He's either rookie listed, and that creates a PSD vacancy, or he isnt rookie listed, and they dont get an extra pick. Thats the way the system works.
As much as i am against the method Richmond are using i totally agree. It will be so good to see COusins back playing footy again. I just don't see why the Tigers couldn't use their Pick 6 on him and do it by proper avenues.
By round 1 when Cousins runs out, all this will be forgotten....its just a dangerous precedent the AFL will be setting. The Rama decision was the first of its kind...but this may open the flood-gates...especially since Richmond had the option of doing this earlier in the year.
But when Cousins gets his first kick, i doubt anyone will care, it will just be good to see him back out there.
But it is a clear abuse of the rules and i fully agree with all that are against it.
Ah, I see...so it's not about Graham's welfare really is it?
LTI + Promote rookie = Graham looked after, within the rules.
Take a rookie and promote him and take Cousins in the PSD.
Surely they have more than one youngster in mind. Even in this thread there have been half a dozen names mentioned and not even Tiger fans can agree which one the club is targetting. Remembering also theres a few interstate clubs ahead of them in the rookie draft and they are quite likely to choose locals anyway.
Exactly.
Its not about Cousins or Polak.
Its about Richmond wanting the youngster it is targetting (and may or may not have made promises to) and being 100% sure he's available, AND getting Cousins as a bonus.
spot on, its also about the AFL wanting cousins back on the park, I'm just waiting for them to announce that he will also be salary cap excluded as well
New 'veteran' category
As an environmental ambassador?
no way is cotchin giving up his number 9 he will have for 15 yearsWill he keep the #9?
Good on the Tigers for having a crack !
Just for one moment can everyone just look at the POSITIVE THINGS that can happen to a club if they took a chance on cousins.
1) Memberships will go through the roof.
2) make sure cousins becomes a spokes person for an organisation ie;health or community related against drugs and alchohol. plus the relevant club could pick up a huge sponsor.
3) imagine the money that would pour in to that club re Cousins making community appreances,this will help his recovery enormously.
4)the chance of having a GUN player at your club that would lift the profile and possibly a top 8 position,having a gun like that at the club.
5) will i believe have positive effect with the players at the club,especially the younger players who will benefit,enormously with regards to preperations for a game .
6)Could end up becoming a strong leader fopr that club ,and after all the crap has settled could help inspire that club to dizzy heights.
7)the relevant club cannot lose,becuse even if there was a relapse,the club would be seen by the majority of doing the great Aussie thing and that is helping and giving your fellow man another GO !

Cousins? What does Cousins have to do with this? My opinion is based purely on Richmond's attempt to bend the rules by placing Polak on the mature age rookie list. Oh so sorry that I don't have the same bloody opinion as you sunshine.
Making things up doesn't make you right. That is not what I said. He chose to walk in the path of a tram, unless of course the tram jumped off the tracks, or someone pushed him. However, I clearly said that I'm sure he did not choose to be hit and injured by doing so. That is what happened whether you want to accept it or not. Wake-up to yourself and read the words that I actually write and not what you twist and manipulate in your mind to suit yourself.
You're on ignore now understandably. I won't be reading anymore of your posts. I hope you read the words that I actually typed this time.
No way, there was way more on the Cuz bust

Cuz looks hot - assuming you mean the one on the left... if he came out of the accelerated time machine looking like that my man love for him would increase further!
I get it, dont you worry. They want it all.
