Port Adelaide great Kane Cornes has taken aim at the umpires for giving Collingwood superstar Nick Daicos preferential treatment. Daicos was instrumental in the Magpies’ stunning win over North Melbourne on Sunday as they came back from 54 points down in the third term to secure a memorable one-point victory. Daicos, who was well held in the first half by Roos tagger Will Phillips, exploded in the second half with 18 disposals, two goals and a number of telling touches in the final term.
“This isn’t a knock on Nick, it’s a knock on the way he gets adjudicated. He gets more favourable treatment from the umpires if there is a 50-50 call, more often than not he gets the benefit of that call. “The one late yesterday where he is clearly holding the ball inside forward 50. If that is any other player, who is not a superstar, that free kick is paid against him.” Daicos finished the match with six free kicks, while only conceding one.
