FORMER West Coast captain Ben Cousins has nominated for this Saturday's national draft.
Cousins, who is also eligible for the December 16 Pre-Season Draft, said he always intended to play football again.
"As part of my ongoing rehabilitation it was my goal to nominate for the 2008 AFL National and Pre-Season Drafts," Cousins said in a statement.
"I wish to clarify that at no stage did I say that I would not play football again following the conditions set down by the AFL commission, while they are onerous they are understandable and achievable."
"I hope to get the opportunity to return to the game that I love. Playing football at the highest level again is an important part of my ongoing rehabilitation and I believe that I can be a valuable contributor at an AFL club."
