If Hinkley was captain of the Titanic he'd be telling the passengers that there is no need to panic, the ship had just stopped to take on more ice.
Jason Horne-Francis and the Argonauts. Helping Hinkley to another year of gold.

Despised as much? No, he's not the first. But despised for as long? Absolutely not, because any other club would have sacked a coach this despised several years ago.
Turns out we have saintly patience. Someone should let Whatley know.

That language has 100% morphed from 'why do you expect every to win it every year' meaning 'every year' to 'stop expecting to ever win again and just be happy like saint kilda is'View attachment 1626957
Just listened to this. Tredders makes some solid, if not predictable points about the club talking a good game and making some big promises (chiefly 3 in 5), and that for a supporter base such as Port’s, the fans can “see through the bullshit”. If you’ve had 10 years and haven’t delivered, your time’s probably up, etc.
His podcast offsider, Dion Hayman says: “in Hinkley’s defence, Port fans have to realise they can’t dominate the competition like they could in the SANFL”.
Where did this paradigm of extreme bipolarity come from?
It’s genuinely frightening that we’ve heard it out of Whateley, Kane Cornes, Rucci, and now another old footy writer in Hayman.
Expecting to win at least two flags in the new millennium (6 top-2 finishes, 4 minor premierships, 2 Grand Finals, 1 flag) = ‘DERP WHY AREN’T WE AN INVINCIBLE JUGGERNAUT?!’, apparently.

Gerard, with the rest of the AFL media in tow, will surely be putting that deluded Geelong Football Club back in it's place. It just doesn't work like that in the AFL.
Setting our expectations a bit higher than zero GFs in 11 years under the Teflon Donut = expecting to dominate the comp like we did in the SANFLView attachment 1626957

Anyone who uses the 'you're not in the SANFL anymore' argument exposes them self as an absolute dumb f***. It's one of the easiest argument to shut down, especially when you list the clubs who haven't even made a GF in the Hinkley era. We're among a small and 'special' group of loser clubs. Makes me want to spew.View attachment 1626957

How to out yourself as a complete nuffie.....
Yes, the SS Minnow is named after a little fish. Are you saying Hinkley is a minnow or a boat named Minnow?Oh, is that right?
Almost like we cop it on the regular.

Man's made a career of being a downhill skier of a coach.
No wonder you don't have a job at Port Broges, criticising our bombing it to Charlie game plan and "Kenny" by extension.
Yes, Brogan was quoted. Brogan called out our methodology of movement into the forward line and observed it was kick it to Dixon and hope. He said there was no method. I now think Dixon is the most overrated player on our list.
