Hmmmm...strange sighting/rumour
A workmate of mine, who I have known for approaching five years gave me some strange info this morning...Now this is completely random....RANDOM...
Fair bit of WTF about it..
Anyhoo, here goes...This happened yesterday Wed 24/09/08
Albert park indoor sport centre @ the pits.
Bally, Joey, Roo & Dal....walk down into the kiosk after watching a game of girls netball... Boys dressed casually, jeans & T-Shirt sort of thing...
Guess who is with them........
Ben Cousins. Dressed in a suit, well dressed suit.
Said, and I quote: "see you later tonight boys"...and Cuz left.
Now...as I said, there is a fair bit of WTF about it....
Our boys were there apparently watching some girly friends of thiers play netball....
With Ben Cousins....
o.O
Make of it what you will...But the only thing I am missing is a photo. Its that genuine.
I wouldnt post this shyt if I wasnt 100% on it...

Thats a good sign. But what is there to say any one of the clubs before us won't swoop on him before we get a chance?? Clubs have drafted plenty of players without even talking to them before hand.
Just don't think he will be around by the time we get to him.

Like a midget at a urinal, I was going to have to stay on my toes.
Same thing has been posted on the Collingwood board on Bigfooty.

Thanks Jeff, didn't know if it was one of those rumours where the names change dependant on which club the poster was aligned to.JeffDunne wrote:No Roo & Dal only.GrumpyOne wrote:With our players named or four Filth players named?JeffDunne wrote:Same thing has been posted on the Collingwood board on Bigfooty.

My word it would be - cheaper and probably less risky (now) than Kerr. Imagine a midfield of: Hayes, Cousins, Ball, Joey, Dal along with Goddard and Gram. It's starting to get that wow look about it.markp wrote:That's probably as good an indicator as you could hope for.... and confirmed on another forum.... hmmmm.
He would be such a freakin awesome get.
I want to stand for something. I'm a loyal person and I think at the end of my career it will be great to look back and know that I'm a St Kilda person for life.

Let me put this scenario to you.
With all the discussions that this seasons draft is the most important due to the gold coast and west sydney in the coming years - what if - Mr Cousins is not going to elect himself for that draft - waiting for all the clubs to fall over themselves stock piling up on the young talent available.
Say the Saints strategy is to ensure they have the first pick in the preseason draft for which Cousins is cleared to be part of???
Would this be the strategy to ensure we definitely obtain his services????

If everyone speeds, why haven't you been overtaken?

All seem quite confident he is going to them next year because of the simple fact they have a pick before us...But cousins can elect St Kilda as his club of hoice can't he, so Collingwood can't pick him?The Saintsational Man wrote:All the pies supporters will be sh*tting themselves.

'Depends I guess if he nominates the Saints then we KNOW he hasn't changed and wants a culture more suited to his former lifestyle....''
And that looked like serious coming from them
Ugliest thing I have ever seen.
As for Cousins - what will be will be.
Lance or James??

St Kilda cannot have first pick in the pre-season draft. Pre-season draft picks are not tradeable, so we are stuck with pick 13.Banger2Plugger wrote:Say the Saints strategy is to ensure they have the first pick in the preseason draft for which Cousins is cleared to be part of???

That is merely an opinion / speculation from the writer - Greg Denham. Not from the Saints.ralphysaints35 wrote:do not like the Dal santo PIck 13 offer for kerr one bit.

Yes but often clubs are already over their salary cap and can't afford a pick, as few as 5 or 6 clubs participate on occasions....FortiusQuoFidelius wrote:St Kilda cannot have first pick in the pre-season draft.
