What a loss
Afraid I have no sympathy for him also but I can't help but think what a tragic loss to sport this is, if ever there is a case to demonstrate just what can happen to a person who uses this rubbish he has to be it

Always has been scum and
Always has been scum and always will be scum. Showed no remorse in the poxy channel 7 interview the other day and in his first interview years ago spoke about how he'd get on it after games and woosha probs would cover his arse, probs played a key role in mainys death. People out there trying their hardest to get by and not getting ahead this clown had the world in his hand and burnt it in his glass pipe. No sympathy, being able to kick a ball doesnt make anyone a hero showing self respect and helping communities does and his doing neither. So set him free and let him be i feel sooo sorry for his kids who have to grow up always being know as his kids, coz surely that'll never be good for them. Just my 2 cents not much of a footy supporter so couldnt give two shits a out how good he was
Hi my name is rob............. and I'm a........... fishaholic

Not Unexpected
Would have got good dollars for the tv interview and that has allowed him to buy more gear. Was only a matter of time before he got caught.
Feel sorry for his family though

That's not actually the case. He did actually get between 50-100K but it's administered by a law firm and only genuine bills and invoices paid. he doesn't personally get to see any of the cash.
I didn't really want to comment on this thread as it's been done to death, we're all aware of his situation.
Love the West!

Only ruined it for himself. Was never a big fan but he could play in his day. Drugs stuffs up so many. . Self isolation for him now

integrity
the further it goes on it just confirms the integrity issues of the club and player at the time when he was still playing good football. Shame for the rest of the guys in the team at the time. there will be forever be an Asterix**

The further it goes has got sweet F all to do with the club . He is an addict with a greedy slag of an ex partner that is out for any coin she can get from him, and is not above using the kids to blackmail him to get what she wants.

I agree Willo. I fail to see how an asterix can be placed on the 2017 flag but the 2019 one was a result of the Tigers playing 10 home games in a row so fair cop.

Frost are you trolling with the Richmond comment...
Come on now sonny...
Frost you would be the first to question Essendon if they had success and then it was deemed they were "under the influence"....
I am not myself putting an asterix next to any Eagles flag but its fucking obvious a large portion of the team was on the gear BIGTIME during that era...
COUSINS, CHIC, KERR, GARDINER ( JUDD - YES AT TIMES EVEN THE GOLDEN CHILD WAS INVOLVED ) to name a few....
The AFL's testing policy during that period is where the asterix should be inserted...
Fuck my brown dog if you couldn't catch those fellas getting loose weekly - but they never did....
Rob90 that is a fucking dumb comment that he probably played a part in Mainys death, you wouldn't fucking know so don't trap off on a public forum with a dumb C%$T comment as such... From my understanding they were borderline best mates, Mainy was a grown man who made his own decisions...
Its another sad chapter in this fellas life, like a few above, I see the good in Ben as a person and hope he gets over his illness which addiction is....

I've never questioned the
I've never questioned the Hawk's 2008 flag after they went to the extreme length of taking out a court injunction to sweep their rampant drug use under the carpet.
I would definitely question a club who won a flag while on PEDs but am actually pretty bloody impressed that the Hawks and Eagles balanced partying and playing elite football in the 2000s.
I saw Cuz at a rave on NYE 1999 called Tasty at what is now the Amplifier Bar. Shirt off, mouth distorted and surrounded by about 15 very attractive females.

Well said Timboon
Lets remove the football/flags etc from his current problem which is He's An Addict and like many others in our society will not get over it till he's ether dead or hits rock bottom.
Slag him all you like it will do no good cause he can't hear ya.
The media only publish/broadcast his issues because it sells, what about all the other addicts being caught/charged no money in them!
Thoughts go out for the kids.
Old fishermen never die they just smell that way.

Frost you are a crack
Frost you are a crack up...
You didn't need to bring up the big headlines like court injunction ( which is first i've heard of it ) for me to admit that no doubt there was a period where Franklin ( and no doubt others but i can't think who else ) were playing up...
Trying to dig dirt to have a crack at my team is funny....
It was only thursday night me and a few mates were sucking piss in the cemetery down here post golf and we were talking about Ben getting thrown back inside... I was defending him kind of as i usually do....
I've always backed him in, I guess my nature is to give the underdog perhaps more leeway than i should perhaps but thats me... ANYWAY.... Two of the fellas grew up with Ben, played Teal with him etc etc...
They also didn't mind a dabble but there was no keeping up with ( gardiner, chic, kerr cousins ) once they had the fame and the cash... They were protected species in Perth ( and you know it ) ... The quantities these blokes were into was rockstar material.....
They were given the keys to the city, VIPS, the fucking highlife... All the while still holding it together and playing bloody good football...
Dont be thinking i'm knocking these blokes, good on em, they pulled it off - they were next level drug using and the useless AFL couldnt catch em....
Strange eh....

One that accepts that our players were taking drugs and happy to point out the rampant hypocrisy of opposition supporters for taking aim at us when their players were doing the same?

I have no doubt the spotlight in Melbourne was too bright for buddy who was arguably the biggest star in the game at the time he went to Sydney.
There would've been snipers everywhere ready to get video or take pics and get him in trouble when he was up to no good, rival supporters, journos etc etc...
That was NOT THE CASE during that era with WC...
Anytime you talk to anyone that knew that crowd has a story.
I could put a post up on here... " Tell me an eye opening WC Eagles on the drugs story " and I bet like my mates down here and a couple in Perth there would be plenty and they would be eye opening accounts of personally witnessing those blokes unashamedly off their heads with big bags of mostly coke back in the day...
Western Australia turned a blind eye because those blokes were revered through that era...
This isn't a pissing comp Jack, I know Hawthorn have had their issues but if you think it's apples with apples you are laughable my friend....

I wonder if Bud has settled down now?
Was watching fox footy other night and someone was talking about being in LA with him.
Sounded like even in some swanky club in LA the punters knew it was Buddy the famous Aussie rules player.
