Port Adelaide's Bizarre Pre-Showdown Late Change

Port Adelaide was dealt a blow on the sidelines for their Showdown...with a weird injury to normal runner Chad Cornes.

LISTEN TO THE AUDIO:

According to Triple M boundary rider Jack McKenna Cornes was pulled from the game after hurting his knee.

But it was the way he did it that raised an eyebrow or two.

“There’s been a change of personnel down here on the sideline for Port Adelaide,” McKenna explained on the boundary.

“He’s been replaced by Scott Thompson, the 300-game Crow midfielder."
