The AFL has addressed the elephant in the room concerning Ben Cousins and his place among the sport’s all-time greats.
While he would spend two more years with Richmond playing top-level footy, the next decade of his life was spent making headlines for all the wrong reasons, including a spate of court appearances and time behind bars. “It’s time. There are others in the Hall of Fame who have had checkered history off the field and it’s time,” Cornes said on SEN Breakfast.
“It’s an incredibly high bar to be a Hall of Famer in the AFL, and it’s even higher to be a Legend, so we’ll look at those things in due course.” “As a four-time premiership player for Hawthorn, four-time club best and fairest, three-time Coleman Medallist and 12-time leading goalkicker for the Hawks, he is a Legend by any measure in our sport,” Goyder said.
