Ben Cousins return to Senior AFL tonight was, by all acounts, a success. Wearing Number 32 for Richmond, Cousins collected 21 disposals in his first match back, sticking it up naysayers like Tom Hafey, who this week publicly shared his view that Cousins had a chance and blew it.
Dispelling doubts of his fitness, form and ability, Cousins got some good possesion and used the ball well.
In front of more than 37,000 people at the Dome, despite a good game from Cousins, Richmond lost to Collingwood - 2.3.15 (51) to 1.13.10 (97).

Terry Wallace (Richmond coach) has announced that Ben Cousins will start on the field for the Tigers' NAB Cup match against Collingwood this Thursday. Wallace is keen to get Cousins back into the game and immerse him in football as soon as possible saying that all going well, he'd expect to play Cousins for at least 60% of the game.
