Cornes was a regular in the Power forward line in 2000, booting 22 goals. Between 2000 and 2003 Cornes and Tredrea formed one of the best forward partnerships in the AFL, with Chad playing up the ground demonstrating his great contested marking ability. Despite being one of the best forwards in the game, Cornes was moved into defence at the start of the 2004 season. ====Career change (2004–2005)==== Line 62: Port looked to bounce back from their Grand Final humiliation of the previous year when they took on Geelong in the opening round of 2008. Despite being close throughout the match, they were unable to win and that was the start of a four-game losing streak for the Power. Cornes suffered a broken finger in Round 6 against [[St Kilda Football Club\|St Kilda]] but returned just three weeks later despite the nature of the break being very severe. After 2 years with on and off form, Cornes broke his finger again in mid-2010. In 2009, Cornes appeared alongside other AFL footballers in an AFL television advertisement titled "AFL: In a League of its Own", which featured prominent AFL players playing Australian rules football at famous sporting venues around the world, and in the middle of other sports being played, including [[basketball]], [[Association football]] and [[American football]]. In the advertisement, Cornes bumps into [[Jonathan Brown (Australian footballer)\|Jonathan Brown]], before proceeding to smother his kick.<ref>{{cite web \|title=AFL Commercial 2009 - In A League Of It{{as written\|I\|t's [sic]}} Own - HD \|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wz7b-SmQFT0 \|website=YouTube \| date=20 March 2009 \|publisher=ALZ \|access-date=30 July 2023}}</ref> ====End of Port Adelaide career (2011)==== Line 79: ==Family== In addition to his brother [[Kane Cornes]], his father, [[Graham Cornes]], is also a former VFL/SANFL footballer, playing 5 games for [[ North Melbourne Football Club\|North Melbourne ]] and 317 games for [[Glenelg Football Club\|Glenelg]] with a career spanning from 1967 to 1982.
