I have to be honest, I also agree that any player who brings up the camp now is just using it as an excuse to avoid their real reasons for leaving (or a journalist is).

We were pretty happy for Eddie to go, he knew he had been dropped and would probably be dropped again in the future. This seems a strong motivator to go to Carlton.

Still being upset at not having his mobile and misuse of a message stick at a camp two years ago? It just doesn't seem logical or realistic.
My honest opinion is that Eddie isn’t trying to ignite any hatred of the club. It seems more to do with the click bait journalism, with leading questions and then saying “Eddie said it”.

Note how there was no mention about his hamstrings issue and the fact he was limited in his kicking? It’s the same type of article that NcNure/Wilson was aiming at - choosing to focus on the saga of a 3 day camp as opposed to the saga of an entire season of physical injuries train wreck.

You mean when someone has quotes they shouldn’t refer to the person who said them? Come on John, you make it so hard with these insane posts.

Quotes directly from Eddie’s mouth I would agree. Quotes written by a journalist, particularly from Victoria, doesn’t carry the same weight as from Eddie’s mouth.

It’d be similar to an article with Kornes “quoting” Eddie. How much would it mean to you if reading such article?

So he made up what Eddie said? I’m surprised Eddie hasn’t come out and demanded a retraction.
 
a bit late here but that Kane & Lucy Cornes rubbish with Cosi

Holy Moly - You really have to have your head so far up your arse to jump straight onto your social media to 'out' a wrong doer rather than confront them directly and sort it out behind closed doors

Just a complete lack of awareness on how to interact like normal, functioning, social humans

If the journo uses quotation marks and follows up with Betts said, I'm pretty sure they're indicating it's a direct quote.

I've missed all this and can't find it on their FB account...what was the take home message?

Cosi was doing a puff piece for SA tourism (as he does) post fires and spruiking a Barossa caravan park. He asked the park for some footage that they provided and he aired.

The Corneses jumped on soc media, literally calling him a thief for using footage they shot without asking permission, and destroying the film industry.

The footage was paid for by the caravan park and (I assume) they had rights to it - otherwise pointless to pay for it to be done. They gave permission for it to be used.

Cosi called them out. The offending posts were removed "at the request of the park", not out of decency, and she was did a radio interview saying she did what she did because she has a bit of a feisty side. Total non-apology.

In paper yesterday Cosi has engaged legal representation.

It's business as usual for the Korneses. The incessant pathetic and desperate scrabbling to cling to any kind of relevance by bombarding social media with their shit. For some reason, obviously according to them, they think they are somebodies, and that their opinions actually mean something.

Puzzling.

I might have missed it but has Kane apologised?
 
OK, not Crows but not AFL… This is a call out to the Bigfooty community, to help a young man.

He is a 17 year old Ugandan refugee, who can’t live at home because his mum has mental illness and there is domestic violence. He is living in supported accommodation with Baptist Care SA, where Mrs Arrowman works.

He is in school (Year 11) and doing well. Baptist Care staff describe him as a fine young man. Soccer is his life, he is passionate about it, and he is in the Adelaide City U17 team and he is a prospect for the U18 team. But…

It costs $1400 for the year (kit, referees and other costs). He has a Saturday morning job and has arranged to pay in instalments, but he needs help.

We have two donors 😊 who are paying half, and we are looking for help to pick up the rest. He was told about this first half this morning before school, and he was jubilant.

Will the Adelaide Bigfooty community help? You can donate here at the link below, please make sure to select “Youth” as the Program. You will receive an email receipt and it’s tax deductible.

https://baptistcaresa.org.au/donate-now
I'm delighted to report that with a combination of new donations (thank you BigFooty) and some further support from the club (waiving some fees in return for referee duties and suchlike), our boy is now sorted for the 2020 U18 season! He is absolutely over the moon.

Thanks to those who supported this (I don't know who you are, Mrs Arrowman is distinctly ethical when it comes to donor confidentiality!).

I can't give the lad's name - don't know it myself - but I hope that we will be hearing it in years to come!

Well, to be fair, your average person who doesn't have any knowledge of how media rights work, could be forgiven for being upset and using the wrong channels. I mean, it's not like she has 15 years of experience in marketing and communications, with a career including stints on radio, television and print media.


Oh, wait...

Quitter Kane has probably lost interest in it and moved on

But that's the point.
Footy players aren't surgeons, they kick a footy all day and make more than people who save lives.
If they're so salty over a stupid camp that lasted for 2? weeks, clearly they are living in some sort of deluded world.
Spoilt brats they are.

At least theyve pissed off now and looking forward to a pretty good season.
Your empathy is overwhelming. Eddie has never had a bad thing to say about the club despite the debacle of the camp and the following two years. You'd struggle to find an AFL player who is less spoilt brat than him.

I guess you didn't read the article either.
