PORT Melbourne coach Gary Ayres says Ben Cousins will not play in the VFL this season.
The 2005 Brownlow medallist registered with second-placed Borough before the June 30 deadline and must play one game to qualify for the finals.
But Ayres, who expects Cousins to start training with the club in August, said it was unlikely the four-time West Coast best-and-fairest winner would play for Port this season.
"I spoke to him the Monday after the registration went through," Ayres said.
