It was probably the most frustrated Ive ever been at a football game.

Can't imagine how a bloke of Cousins calibre and confidence would feel being actually apart of it.

He probably wants to be coach

He's such a competitor that he probably wanted to go back on and the bench said no you're done for the day.

I imagine that if he stays fit and healthy over the next 5 years that he will one day become coach of the RFC. Id certainly back him infront of others who are wanna be coaches.

Ben Cousins sat out the final term on the bench in what Rawlings said was just a precautionary measure due to tightness in his legs.
