Corey McKernan - Playing in Pagan's Paddock

In a North Melbourne team filled with stars such as Wayne Carey, Glenn Archer and Anthony Stevens in the 1990s, Corey McKernan has every right to lay claim to being up there with the best of them during that golden era. A dual Premiership player with North Melbourne and a best and fairest winner at Carlton, with a little more luck early in his career, McKernan might also have a rising star and a Brownlow medal to put around his neck. 

In this episode McKernan opens up about the heartbreak of missing out on both the Rising Star award and the Brownlow medal, his complicated relationship with Denis Pagan and his defection to Carlton.
