More info on Kane Cornes

A product of Glenelg in the SANFL, he made his AFL debut in 2001 after being selected with pick 20 in the 2000 AFL Draft. Prior to his professional football career he attended Sacred Heart College which, today, is known as one of the most highly established schools in Australia when it comes to producing Aussie Rules footballers. His All Australian brother Chad Cornes also attended Sacred Heart College and played for Glenelg in the SANFL. Kane and Chad are the sons of South Australian football legend Graham Cornes.

In 2001 and 2002, he played in Port Adelaide's two pre season competition winning teams, and then in 2004, the team made the step up, and Kane was in the team that won the 2004 AFL premiership, Port Adelaide's first in the AFL. He continued his good form into 2005 becoming All Australian, and in 2006 played his 100th game for the club in round 7, and topped the AFL dreateam competition, despite his team Port Adelaide having a bad year.

In 2007 Kane once again continued his good form, winning All Australian selection for the second time, in a team dominated by Geelong players. He was also the leading possession winner in the AFL, received the most browlow votes for the year for Port Adelaide, and won their best and fairest the John Cahill Medal ahead of brother Chad.

Unknown yet. He stayed in Adelaide because his wife was expecting, and a boy was delivered only in the last hour or two.

He might still fly up to Darwin tomorrow, but who knows.
