Mate...I know your still upset he went to Richmond and did not stay with your club but yes, I have an opinion.

I dont give a toss what this guy has done.....he's a tool.

There are more people in life that deserve more recognition that this toss bag has ever done in his life believe me!!!

He gave the finger so bloody what, I dont agree on what his past is about, but if it had been someone of no consequence had done it, it wouldn't have been shown, gutter journalism at it's best :roll:

I'm sure there is, name some.

You'll find the difference is, these 'more deserving' people dont get talked about all the time.

It does suggest his basic attitude towards people hasn't changed much - it displays a basic disrespect.
There was no need to broadcast it though. He should have been ignored.

$5,000 fine, the AFL will be richer, Cousins will be poorer, and nobody else will give a toss.

Cousins is a person who just doesn't seem to understand what is required of him. I doubt he'll ever learn.

The look on his face when he does it gets me.
He says he was 'joking' around but that's one serious/I mean business look on his face.
If he had done it, and then 'laughed jokingly' then it would probably have been taken in a different context.

I don't know :ymsigh: silly boy.

My lad asked who he was doing the finger too.

My answer was all of us mate, all of us. 'Cos the 'Cuz only cares about himself.

Who gives a rats arse. So what....

Channel 10 made the choice to do so, and only did so to stir up some more muck raking.

Poor form by the TV station.

And what's worse ? Ben sticking the finger up, or them showing Harvey in the coaching box, after every Richmond goal using every expletive
known to man.

Is the AFL going to fine him for swearing too much ?
