Eagles premiership player Daniel Chick is suing for defamation. Source: PerthNow
FORMER West Coast Eagle Daniel Chick has launched legal action over claims made in a series of articles last year.
The 36-year-old, who started his career with Hawthorn, is suing the SportsNewsFirst website, a journalist and the AFL for the publication of a series of articles which mention the former footballer.
In a writ lodged in the WA Supreme Court this week, it says Chick, who is representing himself, is seeking a permanent injunction over the articles, which he claims are defamatory.
Jurrah blew five times legal limit
The writ says three separate stories relating to Ben Cousins, a former teammate at West Coast, being admitted to hospital which mentioned Chick were false. They were published between January and February 2012 on the SportsNewsFirst website, SEN Sports Central and the AFL website.
Chick is also seeking damages, aggravated damages, as well as costs for the publication and republication of the offending articles, claiming that he has suffered hatred, contempt and ridicule as a result.
Three years ago the former footballer was fined $7000 after pleading guilty to importing performance and image enhancing steroids from Thailand.
Chick was caught on arrival at Perth Airport with nine vials and a number of pills concealed in his luggage on October 9, 2010.
PerthNow tried contacting Mr Chick but he did not return calls.
