SA Footy

Great, the State team will be full of his Glenelg mates, Crows MKII

Does anyone really care about state footy anymore?

I couldn't give a rats if SA beat Vic or WA.

Just when I thought the SANFL could not get any worse this comes along !

I presume KG has whistle duties for the game?

I dont mind it. I generally love all my football lol

Good appointment, get off this whole glenelg thing, I am sure he is neutral.. he loves the state, as he said this morning it is football and you dont have to be a rocket scientist to work out stoppage structures for state footy.
I am really happy with Cornesy getting the gig.. hope the team do well

Surely they're taking the piss?

Would have been a good chance to give a younger aspiring coach a crack. Jobs for the boys it seems.

A whole generation of footballers has been & gone since he last coached.
I don't doubt his commitment & Cornes' record speaks for itself - but really?

He hasnt aged that much. Still has that solid leather face......

His first instructions to the players will be to use the drop kick with all passing and if behind go the biff


Wonder if David Grainger will be appointed to the WA coaching panel?

Good appointment

Agreed, good point.

Maybe, though the League might be taking an "any publicity is good publicity" approach with a degree of controversy. Certainly doesn't look like being a universally popular choice - at this stage at least.

The publicity is probably the motive behind it. Just need WA to come on board and appoint Mal Brown to show everyone neither state gives a rats about rep team success.

Can anyone explain to me why he is called "STUDLEY" as I seriously can't figure it out.......

Talk about ungrateful
