Its a complete lie by that flog.

We have 14 games at the MCG this year, 10 home, 4 away. 1 home game at Marvel. We travel interstate 6 times (Port, Eagles, Suns, Lions, Freo and Giants). Most would have said those 6 out of the 8 would have been expected to be the 6 hardest with the only 2 interstate teams we don't travel to being Adelaide and Sydney who both finished bottom 3 last year.

Meanwhile another MCG tenant (cough Pies, cough) also have 14 games at the MCG, again 10 home and 4 away. 1 home game at Marvel (that they have already played), yet they only travel interstate 4 times (Eagles, Crows, Lions and Port).

Yet we are kissed on the *smile*. Ok Cornes you complete and utter flog.

Again, when do Port get forced to play a home game away from AO like we do with 1 home game at Marvel a year???

This is how Kane Cornes does radio: Say something negative about Richmond then sit back while 3 hours of talkback is filled by Richmond supporters calling him to abuse him. Seriously, if the Richmond supporters just ignored him, he'd actually have to do some prep and work for his talkback callers. We just make his job way to easy.

Agree with kornes - we should play at least 6 home games at adelaide oval. The afl give us a free ride to the flag every year

His response to that is "yeah but Richmond dont travel" WTF??
Was he abducted by aliens in season 2020?


He might be going blah blah blah in the media, but on the inside it will be "oh *smile* , they've gone to another level, we gave our all last week , how are we going to beat that ? "

during the last week he would have dared to dream of a glorious Port premiership and him fronting the media telling the world how good Port is
and now we just slapped him in the face with a wet fish and the dream is over … whinge whinge whine whine

What an absolute fu##wit this guy is.
Im just listening to him whine about how the AFL gift us a dream fixture and when challenged on this he keeps drivelling on about how we get 13 MCG games each year.
The *smile* says this on the back of 3 x 6 day breaks and the worst free kick differential in the competition.
Also his pathetic Port play 13 guaranteed games at AO. Funny he cuts off listeners who bring up this point.
I remember posting about this ages ago and can't really be bothered looking it up. The summary was that when you look at the number of true home games we have at the MCG ( not against co-tenants) it was far less than what Port has in Adelaide.
Also he only has to look at last year. We played 4 times in 17 H&A rounds on the MCG , they had 9 at Adelaide oval. We played 4 finals, two were true away games, one was our home game played on a neutral ground and the Grand final was on neutral territory. We won the flag.
If we have such a massive advantage why isn't the top 4 Richmond, Collingwood, Melbourne and hawthorn? the answer is we are just better than anyone else and that's the bit he can't accept.
He was also banging on in the past about the 7 games at the MCG at the end of 2019 completely forgetting that we played no more MCG games than any other co-tenant. The reason we had so many at the end of the season is because we had so few at the start !!

He's the Andrew Bolt of the AFL punditry. Just says *smile* to generate controversy regardless of its merit. Then ignores or dismisses all legit criticism of dodgy analysis or wrong facts. Its not easy, but only way to handle this type is to deny oxygen.
"Punditry." Great word.

On its own, just the very use of this word has this post top quartile for post of the year in my book.

Still salty about us knocking them out last year and then going on to win the the GF.
He believes Port could've, Should've, would've have won the GF if it wasn't for us.
and he knows we are the team to beat again in 21.
His cries at night.
...and i love it.

He's a hater; I love it.

Every stupid, poorly thought out, factually incorrect or irrational comment made by him is music to my ears.

Keep it coming fireman Cornes.
Yeh, you can controversial but you also need to be on point, otherwise you become nothing more than a caricature that nobody wants to hear from. You can put up with some inaccuracies when someone raises valid and authentic observations (and he is capable of hitting the mark) but eventually it gets tiresome. I don’t listen to him much at all any longer.

The “ 5 minute fireman” is a complete *smile*.
Someone should remind him of the time he tearfully walked out of Port’s B&F when he didn’t win. Sulky whining little prick had to be dragged back in by his big brother. I hope Chadwick gave him a clip under the ear.

Does he come up with a “fairer” draw for Richmond? Does he think we should play more games at Marvel?

I just don’t get what people want when we have only 2 grounds in Melbourne and the mcg is our home ground along with Collingwood, Melbourne, Hawthorn, Carlton and Essendon.

Recipe for removing this douche bag from the air waves:

1. Find out who advertises during his show
2. Get people to bombard the advertiser's social media platforms advising them that you won't be purchasing their goods or services whilst they are advertising on the douche bag's show, and that you are telling everyone you know to do the same. Alternatively, send an online petition to the advertiser and their SM platforms.
3. Sit back and await the announcement that the douche bag has left the show for "personal reasons".

Cornes and WCE people will not be content until they get to play EVERY game on their home grounds, and even they’ll insist that they should somehow be given an extra 4 points for the one game they play against their fellow tenant every year. If they lose a final on their home ground they’ll challenge the result like the old Argus system until they get the outcome they want (them winning).
