'greatest afl player to ever live'      ???


Ben Cousins!!

LOL

Nah.




IMAGE....
...

Tony Lockett


Sorry Agnes,

It was probably Tony Lockett.

And Tony Lockett was never a 'dope head' while he was on the field.

But Ben Cousins was, frequently.



Ben Cousins = = a very sad fellow.

Ben Cousins story is one of the saddest most tragic stories in sport.

He was one of the greatest players of his era but sadly he never fulfilled to the potential he had.

He could have been one of the greatest but sadly drugs have ruined his life and his not out of it yet.

I truly hope that he can beat this rut that he's in and come out the other side a better person.

Cods and h--Ajax totally agree- but his drug use cast a shadow over  just what a brilliant player he was- look at that video and tell me he wasnt the best you have ever seen/with or without drugs- there is no doubt that his club and the AFL let him down- he is still battling this thing-- very sad-Tony Lockett was  a hack-

warick capper what a wank he was- lol

Gary Ablett- a drug user as well- but was never hunted down the  way Ben was- disgusting bias becuase he was from the right end of the country- West Coast was a force to be reckoned with and Cousins was the force behind West Coast- with cousins gone well---

The greatest afl player to ever live?

By what judgement? Greatest goal kicker? Greatest marksman? Contested possessions? Uncontested? Most Brownlows? Most premierships?

Or just pure unadulterated excitement on the field?

You will never find the answer. It is the beauty of our game. They are Titans, standing tall. And we will always be divided on who is the best.

Some will say Jock McHale, Peter Hudson, Leigh Matthews, Ian Stewart, Sam Mitchell, Adam Goodes etc etc.

All that matters is who is the best in our heart. Because choosing the the best from a powerhouse of players is an exercise in futility.

AFL should have had a stricter / earlier intervention for Ben.

I cant put Mathews on any good player list for his criminal assault on Neville Bruns, he should never have played again after that.


BTW what a great thread topic

agnes   you cannot put all the blame on the clubs.. this young man is still trying to destroy himself...he is and always was a drug addict..maybe it was the drugs that made him so good......sad but true... Lockett was never a lout to the code....


everything was done to help cousins...he just spat on it..
