He came to the rescue at Sydney coach John Longmire who was dissed by Richmond coach Damien Hardwick following the lowest-scoring AFL game in 24 years.<\/p>\n
Though Richmond recorded an eight-point win over the Swans, Hardwick stamped the match “horrendous” and accused Swans of poor performance.<\/p>\n

Even Hardwick admitted he had been mean to Swans; hence he apologized to Longmire for the comment. While Cornes somehow feel that Richmond’s coach is getting ahead of himself after an unexpected favorable situation of the club from 2016.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m not sure Damien Hardwick would\u2019ve made those comments in 2016,\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
\u201cI\u2019m not sure whether he has got ahead of himself and where he believes he stands in the game.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
\u201cClearly he\u2019s got a lot more respect than he did three years ago, but it never ends well when you start criticizing the opposition, their game style, and the coaching.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Port Adelaide great Kane Cornes sang his praises for Sydney Swan. Despite the defeat, Cornes pointed out Swan’s tenacity over the misfortune with Richmond notable for walking home with awards during the last year. In the end, he suggested Hardwick fret about his own club rather than being critical on the opponents.<\/p>\n
