I have to admit I love how Kane goes about it. Yes he can be a pain in the [censored] but he cops it right back. Love him or hate him, at least you will get an honest opinion from him.

You'll get an opinion out of him, but I suspect it's not always his honest opinion.  It's an opinion he knows will be click-bait and create the most attention.

    Didn't take him long to get over us being 'pre-season champions' due to the documentary we've put together.

    He flip-flops more than a politician does.

    For an SEN website story there's not nearly enough wacky predictions. You're supposed to say Gold Coast will finish fifth and Collingwood 14th to make sure everyone furiously clicks through and Hutchy gets the ad revenue. Back to Clickbait College for Kane.

    I agree with him about Brisbane, I predict they will have a tough year. No hodge, a young team will struggle with expectations.

    I always think the Cats will struggle but they finished top last year so who knows.

    Sydney have zero chance of top 8, not sure where he is coming from on this one.

    Only if clubs start learning how to beat them down at GMHBA stadium.

    The home ground advantage to Geelong is overrated.

    They've had a very good team over the last decade and that coincides with their winning record.

    No surprise there.

    They also didn't play the bigger clubs there.

    ...and the talk of them not winning finals at the 'G' is also an overreaction by the experts.

    They've been good enough to get into finals but have been on a slow decline for a while now.

    It never hurt their premiership teams, they won anywhere.

    Now with Geelong in decline Kardinia Park will no longer be a bogey ground for opposition.

    I hope you're right,

    It just seems that every time we play down there it's a complete disaster.

    We either lose by 80 + points, or get knocked off after the siren.

    Look away Dees fans Kane Cornes has tipped us to make the 8. 

    ? Kane Cornes has made his top eight predictions and premiership tip for the 2020 season! ?

    FULL PREDICTIONS

    1. West Coast

    2. GWS

    3. Richmond

    4. Western Bulldogs

    5. Melbourne

    6. Collingwood

    7. Port Adelaide

    8. Sydney

    interestingly this is in line with historical trends with around 3 changes to the Final 8 each season. Based on his commentary and effusive praise of Melb this morning I think he is clearly  Believer.

    Not just you. Tries so hard to sound intelligent but just come off as over-analyzing and petty. 

     

    Exactly right! Couldn’t have said it better.

    Geelong, great home & away team, poor finals team.

    Not sure if it’s just me but I find Dal Santo adds nothing to my footy knowledge and is boring as bat poo. 

    I call him Splinters. Always sitting on the fence and predicting a no change to the 8 regardless of historical trends is an example. 

    Cornes has admitted he was wrong on a number of occasions and is aggressively opinionated which is more than most in the media. Doesn't' see himself as part of the club like Dal Santo.

    I see Kane is still stealing oxygen from everyday Australian's. Didn't he say we were getting ahead of ourselves a couple of weeks ago?

    Over a greater period of that time we were also the worst team in the comp.

    Things will change 'Bring-Back', have some faith mate.

    It's not just you 'Nelo'.

    I put him with the vacuous Cooney.

    You could sit and listen to both them for hours on end if you had time to waste and absolutely add nothing to your footy knowledge.

    I choose to turn both off.

    Must be buying the beers when Hutchy is around, can't think of how else they get a gig...

    Normally I get a headache reading anything Kane says but I like that he shares my views on the so-called "leadership groups".

    They are complete rubbish. Real leaders lead without being told they are a leader. No leadership group means that at any given point, on any given day, anyone can be the leader we need. I love it.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
