Ben Cousins

Peter Walsh on ABC radio reported that Cousins was told to come in for a random drug test prior to training. He then did a Rio Ferdinand and pissed off over the back fence, went missing, phone off, rendered himself uncontactable et cetera. He has form for this (remember the running away from the Breath Test? For mine, that should have seen him sacked, as it wasn't his first offence).

I'd imagine that the AFL has broader rules on this. If it is true, he'd be facing at least 18-month ban, I'd reckon.

What a dickhead.
