Agree Daz.

I recall the quote” opinions are like a…holes, everyone has one.”

 

All except Kim Jong Un dear leader of Nth Korea. He apparently never defecates, bowls a perfect 300 and hits 52 on a round of golf.

Cornes is now concentrating on calling Norff and Eagles fat unfit footballers. That should keep him busy for rest of the season.

I am excited to hear his take on Freo too.

He did tell me last week that Grundy is better than Jackson, which is somewhat a revolutionary opinion.

I just see Kane Cornes as the Andrew Bolt of the football world.

What really? Don't tell me he has blamed Dan for the booing JHF?

Bontenpelli at No.2, interesting. 

On a related note, if I recall correctly BT's famous line in the 2021 GF after kicking that 3rd quarter goal along the lines that if "the Bulldogs go on to win, he will be remembered as on of the greatest Dogs of all time" following which 'The Bont' was bearly sighted and we all know the rest of the story.

Hopefully Kane's player ratings can have a similar kiss of death influence on those he's named?

Interesting that he's not included every other Ch 7 comentators favorite for the Brownlow of Daicos.  Guess that will get some more clicks and chatter for going against the grain.  On the general Kane strategy, I'm not sure if any have read the below published  reciently in The Guardian, but I think it generally hits the nail on the head:

This.  Dangerfield was useless first couple of rounds.

Absolutely useless if he wasnt Dangerfield he would have been axed if Scott had any guts

Dan would have got someone else to boo for him and then denied any knowledge of asking them.

This man is a jerk, and 40 good posters have fallen into his trap. Why are we giving anything he says oxygen?

I’d like to propose that nothing the jerk says should be referenced on DL. If people didn’t react to the [censored] he writes, then maybe he will get back to being a half decent football analyst. Let’s please treat him like HWCBN (if that’s the correct abbreviation), and ignore him. His treatment of Kossie and comments about Jackson were the last straw for me.

WOW - that guy is SO on the mark. I wonder why no one else has picked up on it and written about it with such accuracy before (or maybe they have, and I just haven't seen it).

I’ve heard those top three a bit recently. Funny, I remember in a particular game at the end of 2021 when halfway through the third quarter, the commentators were raving about Bontempelli. Oliver went on to him, Bontempelli was hardly seen again, and Melbourne dominated. Doesn’t that say something about the respective quality of the two players? It was, after all, a reasonably important game. 

I am not knocking Oliver, but the Bont is ALSO "very special". i think the beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Dangerfield did not have much impact in the first couple of games ala Curnow. But then Cornes cannot remember past something that happened 3 weeks ago ( way beyond his recogisence limit "

Agree with you in reference to his treatment about Kozzie but I thought his comments about Jackson were spot on.

Essentially called LJ a poor key forward and that's exactly what he is.

Further to above, wholeheartedly agree.  

In the Melb Commentary they all seem to wrap Oliver but contradict the whole process by not following through, which, by the way, i'm not displeased about.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    POSTGAME: Rd 09 vs Carlton

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.
