    Would a fit and in form Ben Cousins made a difference for us last night?

    Would this guy take us to the next level?

    Would we want him?

    Could he be trusted?

    Do you want him?

    Would a fit Ben and in form Ben Cousins have made a difference?

    Of course he would have.

      A 24 year old Cousins would, but those days are gone, and we are crazy if we hitch our wagon to him

        Possibly because he has a lot to prove

        Doubtful because I think Eade is on record saying that we don't want him

        That is the million dollar question.

        No. We don't need to recruit another player at his age.

          A tall forward that can kick straight is the only thing we need

              I though we lost because we only able to take 5 marks inside 50 and we failed to capitalize on other opportunities.
              Could Cousins have helped us in either? The guy was a champion so its possible but I don't think we should focus an ageing midfielder with problems.

                The Age today says Collingwood was chasing Cous the hardest but that Cousins has 'links' to the Western Bulldogs. Just curious what those links are?
