AFL chief executive Andrew Demetriou has not ruled out the possibility of former West Coast star Ben Cousins returning to the AFL next season.
Cousins, who last year admitted he was battling a drug problem, returned to Perth this week after a surfing trip in the north-west of Western Australia and is reportedly in good spirits, according to Demetriou.
"I know he's going particularly well, from what I've heard (and) I know he feels very good about the space that he's in at the moment," Demetriou told radio station Triple M yesterday.
"I do think he has the desire (to play) and if he wants to do that, there's a process in place with the commission, which includes our doctors and medicos and his medico, so we'll see what happens at the end of the year."
