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..

    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?

    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.

    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: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
