Kane Cornes has come out and spoken about the time he was sledged by two-time Brownlow Medalist Chris Judd on the footy field.
On SEN in South Australia, Cornes' co-host Andrew Haynes was talking about when Cornes threw sledges during a game against the West Coast Eagles.
Cornes thought if he talked stats, it would get under the skin of the Eagles but it backfired.
โYou were trying to get on the lip to Chad Fletcher and you were just throwing stats because you love stats," Haynes said.
โAnd you were saying things like, โOhhh Chad, three weeks ago you only had four kicks and then last week you had 16 disposals but youโve been averaging 24โ, and you were going on with all this rubbish.
โThen Chadโs just turned to you and said, โKane, get a hobby you nerdโ. And this was in amongst a group of players in the heat of the battle on a footy field and everyone has just absolutely erupted.โ
Cornes replied with, โIt is somewhat true.
โTo make it worse, the player was Chris Judd.
โI was throwing numbers at Juddy and he just said to me, โYou are a nerd, get a hobbyโ.
โThat one is true unfortunately for me, Iโm embarrassed to say.โ
