Cousins girlfriend walks in and goes ballistic. Cousins girlfriend is close friend of Embley's wife and calls her. Embley hears what's going on and goes around to try and clear things up only to be confronted with a coked off his head Chick. Bust-up continued to spillover at training and that's when the media found out.
According to sauce, one of numerous other incidents with Chick as the common denominator.

doesnt sound good for him.
if convicted of being in possesion of drugs what would the afl/wce be doing?

[n1ck]

Story talks about "potentially two of their current stars".

Chick wouldnt be a 'star' would he?

[congorozides]

I just saw the footage

1. there were NO handcuffs
2. He was alone (no other player)
3. he looked a bit wired

may be 8 months old Dan. And yes is of no consequence now except to underline that the drugs issue has been going on for years at WCE with Chick as the common denominator. Nicknamed "The Vending Machine" by some at WCE due to his ability to supply Coke on demand.

[Behind Play]

Channel 9 reporter, reporting the story as the footage was being shown, claimed Ben was led away in cuffs, as i mentioned before there were no cuffs.

Are they just trying to sensationalize this?

If they are reporting the story at least they can report what their footage is showing.

[The_Dud]

it appeared that at the scene (his car) he was in handcuffs

[Behind Play]

it appeared that at the scene (his car) he was in handcuffs

IMO there was no cuffs even while he was in the car.

[claystreet]

Mate saw it while trying to follow his stolen wallet around the area looking for the thieves (completely unrelated). Says Cousins was handcuffed at scene, and Chick was arrested down the street. Don't know how true, but he's shattered (hardcore Eagles man). Reports also say Gang Taskforce made the arrest in pre-organised sting. My friend says they were driving a little girlie car at the time.
