www.williamhill.com – Ben Cousins arrived at Melbourne’s Tullamarine airport last night to a heroes welcome, a reception he has not received since leading the West Coast Eagles to a nail biting premiership victory over the Sydney Swans in 2006.

Tiger supporters have been one of the key factors in drafting cousins to the club, which has the reputation as a bit of a bridesmaid.
