As you are aware I have been at an overseas rehabilitation centre for the past month enjoying, what would be for the non-junkie, a complete expenses paid vacation, where I was able to enjoy the relaxation methods provided by the 5-star resort-resembling institution.

I will endeavor to resist the temptation of buying drugs in Perth, however if that temptation overwhelms me I shall be required, from time to time, to leave Perth and go on vacation again until I am happy enough to live without drugs.

I hope my team-mates don't get caught like I did. They will blame me.

that must be one hell of a drug rehab clinic if someone so deep in drugs can rehabilitate himself in less than one month. come on who actually believes it worked. and as for the clubs little demands for him to nont talk to the underworld. come on theres ways and means of hiding it all. he just thought hed be smart ass and show it off.

I hope Ben Cousins returns to play AFL level Football and the West Coast Eagles go on to win the flag this will silence the critics and stick it right up them. As for the SOOKY LALA DORKERS well thats another story.

FISHING IS MY ADDICTION
