Kane Cornes lashes Suns players for dressing up on Mad Monday
Outspoken Port Adelaide great Kane Cornes has lashed Gold Coast Suns players for celebrating Mad Monday after the Queensland side's abysmal 3-19 season.
The Monday following the last round of the season traditionally sees those clubs who missed out on finals celebrate by dressing up and getting together.
However, Cornes has hit out at Suns players, after rookie forward Jack Lukosius posted a photo to Instagram of him dressed up as Olympic swimmer Mack Horton alongside fellow teammates.

“Can someone tell @GoldCoastSuns that they won 3 games and lost 18 in a row. #DressUps”. Cornes tweeted on Monday.

It's not the first time Cornes has spoken out about his disapproval towards unsuccessful clubs participating in the famous celebration, after he called out Richmond players in 2016.
I wonder if Richmond will celebrate by dressing up on Mad Monday again like they did after their finals smashing in 2014. #AFLSwansTigers

Carlton's Daisy Thomas and Swans legend Warrick Capper trade costumes
Retiring Blues star Dale Thomas has claimed best costume of the day after going all out to dress as former Sydney cult hero Warwick Capper.
What made the costume even more remarkable was that Capper himself came along for the celebrations, dressing up as Thomas during his Collingwood days.
