'''Graham Studley Cornes''' OAM (born 31 March 1948 in Victoria, Australia). Cornes was a champion with the Glenelg Football Club, between 1967-1982. He played mostly at centre half-forward. In his 317 Club games for Glenelg he kicked 347 goals and won the club best and fairest award three times.
Paul Weston started his career at Glenelg in 1973, and became an inspirational leader, captaining the Bays for four seasons. Not the most spectacular player, Weston was however very cool under pressure and well skilled.


He was a member of the Premiership Team in 1973, taking a spectacular mark in the last minutes of the game and calmly goaling to regain the lead.
As with many of the talented tigers players of the era, he played in many losing Grand Finals - 1974, 1975, 1977, 1981 and 1982.  Pursued by several Victorian clubs and haunted by lack of premiership success, Weston moved to Essendon at the age of 26 in 1982.  


He originally signed on with the VFL's South Melbourne in Victoria early in his career, but did not play in the VFL until 1979, when in the later stages of his career he played 5 games with Ron Barassi's North Melbourne before returning to South Australia.
A centreman whilst at the Bay, Weston played primarily as a defender with Essendon. He won premierships with Essendon in his final two VFL seasons.
As playing coach with South Adelaide he played 47 games in 1983-1984


=== Coaching ===
Returning to South Australia following Essendon's 1985 premiership, Weston pursued coaching ambitions, taking up the position of Captain-Coach with West Torrens from 1986 to 1988 


He coached South Adelaide from 1983-1984, taking them to fifth both times.
He finished his football career with Norwood in 1989.


He then returned to the Bay in 1985, winning Premierships in 1985 and 1986 and also taking them to three losing Grand Finals in 1987, 1988 and 1990 which was his final year.
He was a South Australian State representative on 13 occasions and won a Fos Williams Medal (Best on Ground in State matches) in 1982 for his performance against Western Australia at Football Park.


Cornes had an astonishing record in State of Origin matches, boasting nine wins from eleven matches including six wins from eight matches coaching the South Australia team against Victoria.

1991 appointed inaugural coach of the Adelaide Crows in their first year in the AFL, until the end of 1994 when he was replaced by Robert Shaw. His highest result with the Crows was third place in 1993; his worst result eleventh in 1994.

Cornes is now a football media personality, having appeared on the Seven Network's football coverage during the 1990s, and co hosting the FIVEaa Sports Show with first K. G. Cunningham from 1995 to 2008 and now Stephen Rowe, 2009 to current. He has also coached the All Stars in EJ Whitten Legends Games.
