What did Kane Cornes say on Footy Classifields last night?

[sr36]

Cornes is just another talking head on the TV. Less credible than Caroline Wilson (who occasionally has some actual dirt). He should know a bit about footy as he was a premiership player, and had some ability too. However that doesn't translate into being interesting or relevant, so he's settled for being annoying to garner attention.

Cornes was an irritating player too, I recall him sledging our blokes after Port beat us in the H&A and giving our blokes the one finger salute, I think it was 2002. He should have fingered himself, we beat them in the finals later that year, and the next year as well.

I don't watch these people on the TV, I get better footy craic on this site (seriously even on Bay 13) or chatting to my friends and family than Talking Footy or any of that crap. I mean I can listen to Wayne Carey, even though he's annoying he's smart and doesn't just trot out bland truisms or provocative nonsense, he makes interesting observations and backs it up, and corrects himself when he gets it wrong too. Brereton is the same.

Sadly the ones worth listening too are sorely outnumbered and get teamed up with utter clowns like Kornes, or Wilson, or Robbo, or Gillon's phoney-arse little brother.

You've hit on one thing that I feel dirty admitting to: Wayne Carey is the bloke in the media most worth listening to.

No thank you.

 

[Albert Parker]

No thank you.

So Josh Kennedy in from WCE for 2 years and possibly Darcy Moore to Richmond? I'm with you. Big fat pass on that combination.

 

[barrackers]

No thank you.

His views always come across as opinion based rather than source based. Further his opinion often seems to be seeking controversy or a headline. For mine his profile as a past player is all that separates him from your average bigfooty/sen nutter. Sure he'll get the odd thing right, but comments from Moore seem to be pretty positive about staying without actually stating he wants to stay.

I think intellect and insight wise Kane throws to the mothers side.

Just wonderin if Cornes' boorish personality/opinions/statements happened to be largely pro Collingwood, would he be viewed a such?

Short answer.... Yep.

YES, I am glad that KC is not our list manager. When there is no footy being played, obviously padding out these shows is bloody difficult.

 

[Help My Club]

Short answer.... Yep.

At last, an honest response. Well done to you sir.

 

[KrispyKremePie]

So Cornes believes one of Collingwood’s problems is that they have an old list and it’s now a good idea to bring in a player that is probably older than Pendlebury... how does that help?

Sorry for the intrusion he also said Josh Kennedy to move to Collingwood the guy has rocks in his head.

Most of these "let's get 'insert player name'" hypothetical discussions are pretty pointless at the best of times but with the uncertain future of list sizes and TPP it becomes even more so. I just don't know why these media morons are given air.

Cornes seems adamant that we can't keep Moore and Jordy so he uses the links to the Tigers to justify his stance. Before the virus Moore said that negotiations were going smoothly and that he was seeking a long-term contract.

Cornes is a hillbilly. Straight out of Deliverance.

 

[Prestigerrycomo]

He's a tool, but he's at least a little different to the other media robots.

I treat him like Kohli- a dicksnap but makes the game more interesting

 

[Soups]

At least he’s moved onto trolling Carlton atm.

Everyone trolls Carlton, and so he should

I reckon if you looked in Kane's pantry you would find sunblest bread.
He just seems like that sort of guy.

If he like us, l would still feel the same about him. Rubbish commentator.
