MATTHEWS BELIEVES AFL ARE GRANDSTANDING
BRISBANE Lions coach Leigh Matthews says yesterdays meeting between the AFL and the West Coast Eagles was nothing more than “window dressing”.
Matthews said the league could have sent an email or a letter to the Eagles to deal with the issues discussed yesterday, but instead they chose to hold a meeting the Lions coach decsribed as nothing more than “a public relations exercise”.
The Brisbane Lions coach also asked why the AFL wouldn’t use the “Bringing the game into dis-repute” charge on Ben Cousins just as they used it on him back in 1985 when he had an on-field altercation with Geelong’s Neville Bruns.
Matthews believes Cousins, who arrived back in Perth today, should be suspended from the game for a minimum of twelve weeks for his alleged drug abuse.
