Former West Coast champion Ben Cousins has opened up on the recent decision by the AFL to keep him out of the Australian Football Hall of Fame in 2024. Cousins had a high-profile drug battle at the end of his AFL career which continued after he retired at the end of 2010. But the former football star has got his life on track and now has a career in the media with the Channel 7 news team in Western Australia. He has also joined a Perth radio breakfast team, Mix94.
‘it’s obviously an honour, but you don’t expect it’,” Perth radio star Kymba Cahill put to Cousins. “Now the AFL have now said you won’t be added to the Hall of Fame this year now. “Ben, there’s no question that you were a legend of AFL and your performance is worthy of a spot in the Hall of Fame, which leads everyone to assume that the reason that you won’t be considered is because of your behaviour off the field and your troubled past.
