Do other clubs cop these constant vindictive attacks from certain individuals in the mainstream media? The level at which dildo, Caro & corn-Francis are willing to go is beyond belief. Hopefully these 3 clowns keep escalating so we can do something about it legally.

Jack Watts was smashed from pillar to post, for years. For being shit and for being a young captain.

A good handball is better than a 45m kick to a lead. Handballing is super underrated. Cunners kills zones with his Handballing skills. Would Cunners go down as one of the best Handpass players in history?

As far as North players, Cable would be no. 1. Cunners maybe 2. Jimmy and Larkin would be up there.

Was trying to think of a funny way to put "nose beers don't count as actual beers" into a comment, but I'm a bit tired and I am not sure if he's a drinker or not. Who was that footscray fella that just went to the Dees? He'd get a gallop :-D

remind me again how many premierships gold coast suns have won with "all their facilities" ?? ( not to mention the draft concessions) in fact i cant even find any evidence of them playing in a final?? ( same period we made 2 prelims! ).

I take extreme exception to Kornes sitting in the media having opinions like this. I went to a lot of Port games in the 00’s/10’s when he was playing. I saw the tarps covering entire bays at Footy Park. I saw the Primus years first hand and how people supposedly on the same team turned on each other. They’re doing it now! Hinkley turned that club around and look how the fans are treating him.

I also saw North’s record vs Port for the first ten years of their existence. So maybe that has a bit to do with it. And further to that, how did our club cope when the chips were down, when we were training out of dog boxes and pigs like Caro were trying to destroy us? We galvanised. We got together. We supported each other. We made a prelim. We didn’t throw tarpaulins over our stadium and point fingers at each other and fall apart - we did what we had to do. I’m not going to suggest that he’s jealous by any stretch, but at the very least maybe he resents the way his own supposedly strong organisation dealt with adversity. And at various stages of that era, he wasn’t even good enough to make the team let alone show leadership and shine a torch in a dark time.

But I’m speculating. I don’t actually know what his problem is or why he feels he’s in any position to be arrogant against us and unlike him, I wouldn’t claim to know as fact.

But one thing he would know first hand as fact is what it is like to be in an organisation that is “cash-strapped”, he saw it at Port in years even worse than our darkest. But then he’ll harp on about history and tradition, but be the first in line to drum us out of town with all of our history and tradition.

He’s a hypocrite. One minute, he’ll call the McGoverns traitors, the same week he’ll happily have his photo taken with JHF who betrayed a club that took him in the draft. No issue there when it’s your own club, hey Kane? He’s biased and unprofessional.

Then he’ll kick us for being unprofessional in the support we gave Jason. Without a thread of proof, he’ll run with it knowing as much about the CCJ situation as indeed we did about Tarryn Thomas. And of course we weren’t great. That’s why we got the number 1 pick! Where’s his hate for all of the other clubs that have finished last and not been the best environment for a young player? For the first time in our history, god forbid, we finish last and get a high pick. So what?

All that said however, the last few minutes of that interview with Demetriou absolutely takes the cake. Handouts? “Yeah St Kilda at $25 million”, says Demetriou.
“But we’re not talking about them”, says Kane, steering it back to North, where he can’t give a millimetre of credit even when he’s hit with the facts. You can almost hear the saliva frothing from his inbred mouth as he can’t wait to talk about North again.

According to him, we’d be doing better now if we took the offer, threw away all of our history and went to the most un-football (un-sporting!) city in the country. Since that time, we’ve made finals half a dozen times, two prelims, not only debt free but turning a profit and building more facilities, record membership despite finishing last and we’ve signed the coach we wanted…

…yet all this failed fireman, who played to the sound of boos, surrounded by tarps, for an organisation that was leaking money by the millions can do is point limply and say we’ve “sacked a million coaches”. An obvious exaggeration but not even loosely based on truth. We had Scott for as long as anyone’s ever had a coach without winning a flag. Things didn’t work out with Shaw, but that’s not on us is it? And Noble was never a long term solution. It got so bad that we had to make a decision. Imagine the media wrath of we didn’t?? And time will tell, but I believe we made the right one. We waited, played our cards well, and got our guy. Where’s the credit?

And besides - wtf have Gold Coast done in this time? Still looking at 12th as a pass-mark despite EVERYTHING they’ve been gifted??

We don’t have to justify ourselves to anyone, LEAST of all this absolute cretin. Go F*** yourself Kane. I’d say “even your own club has turned on you”, but that’s obvious and very common at Alberton anyway, despite your multiple B&Fs. But in this I don’t blame them. You’re a d!ck.

Nothing special as a footballer. Very average as a journalist. Even worse as a human being; Kane is the private school idiot in a straw hat who takes the easy path set for him, yells insults at the bigger kid down the hall, and would get beaten to a pulp if caught so stays near his parents when school is out.

This story is worth revisiting. From someone who was in the change room. When Port returned to the change room after their 119 GF lose, the first thing Corns did was to ask their stats man what his stats were! The guy is a self obsessed flog.

That makes sense. I remember a fan ringing into the radio a few years ago when he was a guest, questioning the value of the stats he accumulated and his “lollipop kicks” and you could almost feel the burn of Kornes’ anger through the radio when he replied “what do you mean lollipop kicks???”

Having had the misfortune of watching him live too many times, I knew exactly what the bloke meant- up and under, 15 metre kicks of minimal to neutral advantage, and a lot of them. But it was like “how dare you question me”.

He never grew out of wanting to pad the stats, can picture him right up the front on little league presentation night expecting to win the best player award. Although I’d guess that his brother, a far superior footballer, probably took out the awards more often than him. Perhaps that burned too.

An insecure person with a massive and unwarranted ego.
