Kane Cornes has blasted the Adelaide Crows for failing to answer the burning questions of its members and challenged the club to “step up and face the music” after a failed season.
“Port Adelaide has had a season from hell,” Cornes said in an editorial broadcast on FIVEAA. “They know it, yet they’re embracing it. Since the season ending loss to Essendon on Friday night the Power hierarchy could not have been more accessible to their fans…”
“Over at West Lakes, the ever frustrated supporter base is still waiting to hear from key officials on the vast array of issues confronting the club this off season. Several requests from this radio station to speak to club spokesmen have been denied. Only captain Taylor Walker has honoured a paid Triple M media gig and spoken to the media.
“Adelaide have clearly learnt nothing from their disastrous ducks and drakes media policy that has served to only alienate fans…
“Why is Josh Francou leaving the coach’s department one year into a three-year contract? And is he publicly saying he’s going back to teaching only because the club won’t let him break his deal to join the Gold Coast?
“Why is the other assistant coach Tate Kaesler leaving? And on the back of Cameron and Lever leaving last year, why is Mitch McGovern wanting out and breaking a three-year contract?
“Adelaide’s strategy of shutting down and censoring the information to their fans doesn’t work. Step up and face the music.”
