Why would you care what Kane Cornes says about this?

Port have said it was stupid, then Lamb said it was stupid. There's obviously nothing there.

The SEN audience is less than 3% in Melbourne and doesn't exist elsewhere. The idea that we have to sign him up before Xmas to shut up Kane Cornes is laughable. Maybe some people just enjoy their beds being wet. 

As the other poster pointed out, Goody, Lamb, Gawn and many others made all the same comments about Jackson. Everyone does, until the truth comes out. 

We've all been through this enough times before (Jessie, Jacko) to know that whilst it may be a misconstrued, embellished version of the truth, it will not be 100% fabricated. It never is. 

I cant stand some of what Cornes says, but if he doesnt sign a contract early next year.. odd son he is right.

 

I would be very surprised if the club isn't working with Kozzie and those close to him to understand what he doesn't like about Melbourne, the city.

Clubs will go to great lengths to make players happy in all aspects of their life.  So unless Kozzie is miserable his unease in Melbourne, the city I reckon it will all get sorted.  Even North said they asked JHF's family to move to Melbourne to help him out.

 

The club loves to have a major contract signing announced at the start of the season.  Kozzie is a fan super favourite so an announcement in March perhaps... 🙂

The club should sue Kornes. The bloke has had it coming for a while. He literally called Tim Lamb a liar. If Tim thinks otherwise, it's time to attack the credibility of this twit. He is a modern day shock jock and rarely backs down

Kane Cornes straight out saying that both Tim Lamb and Kozzie Pickett are outright lying.

He'd want to be very sure.

He is just trying to save face as he started the rumour, propably for his own selfish reasons.

As they say 'attack is the best form of defence'.  I just don't like how he discredits good people.

The club should ignore Cornes and do two things

1. All it can to make Kossie happy with his life in Melbourne

2. Sign a new contract before the start of next season 

If they can't get these done it will become another ugly circus very very quickly 

Calling Kossie a liar should come back to bite..


More pragmatism, less emotion...

 

If Kysaiah leaves. What or whom do we get in return...

We must send Cornes across to the USA, to Florida. There, he can meet with Donald Trump to compare notes. He meets all the necessary criteria for Trump: narcissi tendencies, his own selfish reasons to speak publicly, attack to cause delays as a double-barrelled form of futile self-defence, an ability to discredit good people as if he was superior and could recognise it, and could exemplify that fictitious assumption as well. MOKGA (make our Kane great again). Hell, Trump might run him as his vice-POTUS or as a senior, advising counsel (Kane is so influential, opinionated and intelligent).

Those that get frustrated by Kornes need to understand that is what he wants. He wants to be controversial, he wants angry supporters ringing up and complaining. It is his style of trash journalism.

Sounds positive but until he signs an extension it’s up in the air and this is why the speculation will persist. 
Jackson take 2 🤮

On Lamb’s comments, Cornes – speaking on AFL Trade Radio’s The Early Trade - said: “That’s a lie.

Wonder if Tim is off to see his Solicitor.

End result if it went all the way could be Kossie called in to answer questions which possibly wouldn’t help the club.

I would expect some stern follow up with the powers that be at afl house. Can’t have people on afl endorsed channels calling people liars.

Is it accepted fact that he doesn’t like living here?

according to cornes, yes 🤣 so it must be true as he doesn't like lies

As mentioned in a earlier post by Jaded No More that he lives / lived with both Jackson and Bedford (one gone and the other looking to go) wouldn’t help one iota! 
Hope this gets sorted sooner rather than later for two reasons.  
a) team stability for 2023.  
 b) I don’t think I could handle another year of ‘will he, wont he’ like what happened with Jackson this year!

He’s a contemporary KB. I think he’s hilarious. The amount of people he is able to bait weekly astounds me. 
 

Like you said mate, it’s what he wants and it works a treat.

He wants to be Stephen A Smith

Ports main focus will be to pursue JHF. If they do that - as many have said - they will not have much left to pursue Kozzy. 

The issue is next year when his current contract expires. Don't think I can stomach another season of speculation and distraction like we just had with Jackson

He's still really young, I remember Jeff Farmer had his struggles with Melbourne the city early on but grew to love it here. Obviously he did end up going back to WA but I believe that was more for family reasons in the end.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
