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.

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: Gold Coast

    From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

  • CASEY: Gold Coast

    Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

  • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

    It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.
