Looks like Kane followed the lead of the Port players and was late to show up:

‘Clown’: Kane Cornes apologises after locking co-host out of studio

Kane Cornes has apologised for “unprofessional” behaviour following his Port Adelaide team’s qualifying final implosion.

Kane Cornes was nowhere to be seen when his radio show began on Friday morning following Port Adelaide’s abysmal performance against Geelong on Thursday night.
The footy shock jock showed up late to work for his breakfast radio show on SEN after simply getting his time zones wrong.

The 41-year-old’s blunder left co-host David King locked out of the network’s Adelaide studio and left producers scrambling.

With footy fans keen to hear Cornes’ analysis following his football club’s crushing 84-point loss to the Cats in their qualifying final at the Adelaide Oval, listeners were no doubt shocked to instead hear the voices of SEN presenters Jordan Kounelis and Nimz Azoor.

The fill-ins had to announce the “unprecedented” situation while sharing news that Cornes was making a desperate dash to the studio.

Fifteen minutes into the show, Cornes and King finally made it to their microphones.

King described his out-of-breath colleague as “rattled” while a sheepish Cornes made a full apology.

Azoor had to tell listeners right off the bat that: “David King is waiting outside the Adelaide studios at the moment on 1 King William Street. Laptop ready to go”.

It seems Cornes was the only member of the show with the security pass needed to access the remote studio that broadcasts live into Melbourne.

“This is unprecedented. In the seven years I’ve worked with Kane Cornes I’ve never seen him late,” Azoor said.

For the record, Cornes also made headlines last year when he arrived half-way through an episode of Channel 9’s Sunday Footy Show and gave former Qantas CEO Alan Joyce a bake live on air after the national carrier put him on a delayed flight back to Melbourne.

Cornes’ failure to show up on Friday morning had the jokes flying into the show’s open text line after his team’s abject failure.

“He’s shell-shocked. I think he doesn’t want to come into work today,” Kounelis joked.

Cornes admitted there was no excuse for his “unprofessional” blunder.

“My goodness me. I can explain myself. I can’t really. I’m on bloody Adelaide time. I don’t know what I’m doing,” Cornes said.

Cornes labelled himself a “clown” and said he was in the shower when his phone started ringing with producers asking where he was.

“Kingy’s out the front waiting for me to let him in,” Cornes said.

“So I didn’t call in sick. I didn’t dodge the hard questions that have come from last night. Thank you for stepping up in our time of need.”

He went on to say: “I don’t know what I was thinking. Sorry. My apologies. It was my fault. It was pretty ordinary. Unprofessional. If I was a footballer I would have called it unprofessional.”

Fox Footy analyst King was measured in his response.

“It’s not often you listen to your own show live from outside of a studio. You’re rattled,” he said to his co-host.

One message that came through on the show’s text line summed it up.

“Kane’s just another Port Adelaide player that failed to show up, just like last night,” the message read.

Between an airport security search and his team’s capitulation, Cornes described it as “one of the all-time worst days I’ve had”.

Plenty of Port Adelaide fans will be saying the same thing.
 
^ " Its the true Port Adelaide tradition"
It's true Port Adelaide tradition
We'll never stop, stop, stop
Til we flop, flop, flop
It's finals time and we're shaking
Put our home and away form in the bin
We'll always give in
Straight sets is ours for the taking
POWER
 
Once they realise they are not 36 premiership " port adelaide " and are just like;
. The Crows
. West Coke
. Freo
. Cold Toast
. GWS
. and the Devils, they might make something of themselves. Burdened by a history that's not their's. Pretty funny though, long may it continue. Their " SANFL " side hasn't won a flag since 1999.

*** ain't changing that by himself either.
