Ben Cousins has been readmitted to the Epworth Hospital for further tests.

“Ben is under the care of a Gastro Enterologist and at this stage it looks as if he will stay overnight,” Richmond Football Club Doctor Dr Greg Hickey said.

“Unfortunately Ben’s symptoms from last week have not yet fully resolved so we have asked for some more tests to be performed,” Dr Hickey said.

The Club will provide updates when the results of these tests are known.
