There's nothing easy about comedian Tom Gleeson’s Hard Chat segment on ABC's The Weekly as Chris Judd just found out.
 
The former West Coast captain was grilled about wayward son Ben Cousins and the Eagles drug culture that 'tarnished' their 2006 premiership win over the Sydney Swans.
 
The issue surfaced after a 2008 report by retired Victorian Supreme Court judge William Gillard was unearthed which determined that a toxic drug culture had existed at the club but had been covered up by officials.
Former 2005 Brownlow medallist Ben Cousins, who is serving a six-month sentence for stalking and breaches of a restraining order, has had a long-running and public battle with drug addiction.
Judd has already defended his involvement at the club during the period in question but it was hard to avoid some of the questions that were thrown at him by Gleeson.  
"Can you tell Cousins to get his s--- together so we can tell jokes about him again?" Gleeson asked to retired Carlton star.
 
"It’s a bit hard to get onto Ben at the minute," Judd said. "He’s got a few prior engagements."
 
Gleeson then said that Judd had recently attended a 10-year reunion for the 2006 premiership team before asking him, "how many grams did you win by?"
 
"That’s a cheap shot, Tom, a real cheap shot," Judd said.
 
Gleeson then turned his attention to the International Rules Series which sees Australia play Ireland in a hybrid version of the game that combines elements of AFL and Gaelic Football.
 
"For my NSW friends, I want to explain to them that International Rules is Aussie rules combined with Gaelic football," Gleeson said. "So what’s it like playing a game that two countries don’t give a s*** about.
 
"The game I mean, International Rules, do you agree it’s like watching a dog try to f*** a cat? It’s ugly, and it shouldn’t be happening."

 

Ron, disappointing that you have posted this without stating who had written the article. I actually watched the show and there are bits missing. The other thing is that Jude had accepted the interview with Gleeson and it is no secret as to the interview style of Gleeson or what the segment is designed to achieve, it is called HARD CHAT

Bombers are favourites for the game against the Pies, just.

Alex stated the above.

 

The bookies have Collingwood  at  $1.74 and  Essendon at $2.10. The Tipsters have Essendon as favorites at  59% compared to 41% for Collingwood

 

It will be interesting whether the Bookies or the tipsters are correct.

See the Bombers fly up, up!
To take up the ANZAC flag.
Our boys who play this grand old game,
Are always striving for glory and fame!

Don't pick 'em. Give them a chance!!

 

 

Dam if i do dam if i dont...i changed my pick to Bombers i almost never change a pick once I've locked it in, pretty simple really, if the Pies were going to threaten this year they would have already 3 wins on the board they dont and like NORTH are going no where fast......Your team better not let me down OPTUS...

Interestingly the bookies have given the same odds for the Richmond vs Melbourne game as for the Ess vs Coll game which indicates the betting is similar in both matches yet the tips do not show the same.

My Bias, 

 

Punters, Anzac day is Australia day in many ways. And generally a bad omen for St kilda traders.

 

ANZAC day has content, sacrifice and loss, nation building and some ignorance too perhaps. ANZAC day has much history and tangible legacies and stories behind it. Jan 26th,  is for flag waving celebrations re the first fleet, it just seems as we grow these two days means different things.  

 

Not for St Kilda shopping ESSENDON's list however. ANZAC day bears gifts only a Saint Kilda trader could hope for and pick after an ESSENDON win on the day. In the last ten years, ESSENDON has won twice, and Saint Kilda coaches determined: 

 

2009 ESSENDON win./ Andrew Lovett. "Boy can run" said Ross. Recruited and never played a game.

2015 ESSENDON win./ Carlisle. "Boy can snort". 

 

Chook/ Who do you want this year?

In Alex's language of rank things, Lyon is a turd that floats.

Umpiring is a joking over west. Cannot control the biases.

Classic Ross Lyon football. 67/62 Freo win but who has the chococies. 

 

North Melb.

 

I detest Lyon football. Plays every element lower than it can be. Cannot move the club forward. I saw more young knagas than the traded  Shane Kerstens or Brad Hills . 

Pfffff

And this about explains what 'Lyon' football expects.

 

Delimit horizons and players capacities. Become a part of a caucus of negative results. 

Not at slit the wrist situation yet.

But absolutely gutted.

After watching the way the Crows move the ball,we are way off a premiership.

Some good highlights with Garners mark and the Williams chase down at the end.

Scott has to go and take Thomas with him.

Thanks I think you may be right but I think the issues go deeper than just the coach they have had problems since they have started I would look at the board maybe someone has pictures

What a magnificent game between the Swans and GWS. It was for the first 3 minutes.
