Irrelevant yet prolific AFL Pundit and former player Kane Cornes has wobbled his mouth up and down in front of a national sports radio microphone this week, this time to pass comment on a topic he knows literally nothing about.
Speaking on SEN on Monday, Cornes took issue with the fact that after Collingwood player Jack Ginnivan’s recent drug scandal, there’s an impression that all AFL players are out there taking drugs and having amazing fun times, when the reality is that Cornes himself never took drugs with other players in his whole life.
“I feel like there is a belief that all players are using drugs,” he said.
“That’s not my experience – I never once saw it. Granted I was so naive with stuff like that and I’m still so naive to this day. People would laugh at me for how naive I am, but I never once saw it in 15 years – and that was a long time ago now and perhaps things have changed.”
Beyond his self-admitted naivety, Cornes’ startling admission reveals a deeper truth. It proves what many already suspect, that even back then when Cornes was at the height of his AFL career nobody wanted to hang out with the bloke.
The fact that he never once saw drugs in his 15 year AFL career is utter madness given that AFL footballers are rich blokes paid to play sport fo a few hours a week.
Despite this, Cornes has not yet twigged on to the fact that the reason he didn’t see any drugs throughout his career is for the same reason he sees neither of them now.
Sources close to the man admitted to the Advocate that he’s ‘one of those blokes who’d rat you out if he ever saw you bumping.’
These revelations about Cornes have rumours swirling that the unnamed pervert who filmed young Jack Ginnivan without permission in a toilet cubicle may have been none other than Cornes himself.
Cornes has denied any allegations of wrong doing thus far.
