I haven't watched the doco due to being away but have been interested in peoples opinions - the father (and family) and their incredible support along with Cuz's apparent lack of remorse.

Having a loving family who will do anything to support a son/sibling - nothing wrong with that. Would've thought was a major +ve

It's that simple Spud
"I discussed (it) with my three daughters, my wife and my 82-year-old mum, because it has really affected me … If those comments … were made about one of my daughters, it would make the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. I would not have liked it at all.”

After watching the docu i kinda of admire cuzz.To me he came across as a guy who is very driven in life and yes that has positives and negatives as we have seen,but on several occasions he mentioned the importance of family and to me this shows someone who at the very least cares about those close to him,and thats an admirable quality .
Plus i have always loved the way he played his football....at 100mph

Really, does it matter who got him to Richmond? I'm sure everyone played their part and am amused that people are putting their hands up trying to say I got him lol.  Sheedy played a part, the president, coach, the players and even the AFL all played their part.  At the end of the day, WGAF?

It's just pathetic, Jack, who cares? The supporters got it over the line I reckon, not one individual

Ben's biggest problem in convincing people is he is too good looking and admired by women and men for it that they think he should pay the price because he is.
He is charismatic, deal with it
That woman has probably done more harm than the documentary would have in not encouraging it
She's very petty, like a lot of people

same.  I asked her why she was so hung up on the fact he was good looking and if that was the real source of her bitter tirade.
She seems to have missed the point that the Cousins doco was pointing out that he was a selfish arrogant bugger and that was part of if it.  He was too busy having a good time to give a poo get it ?  Silly cow.
Lots of people name their swords......

He doesn't.
Cousins is a West Coast Eagles champion. Not a Richmond one.

I found the doco remotely interesting.
Cousins struck me as a pretty self interested individual who happened to take drugs.
I felt for his Dad and his family. That's about it.
He's extremely lucky some at Richmond decided he had enough talent to give him another shot.

Sooner this circus is over the better. :P
