The messaging we put out to the public about literally anything footy dept related is pants-on-head insane.

"We need to combat the perception we are culturally insensitive, but also express our seriousness towards finals this year."
"I've got it. The Finals Solution?"
"Brilliant. Another winner from the Port brains trust."

Cringe isn't the word I would use.
I'm kinda hoping now everyone at the club skipped the chapter of the atomic bomb in history to come out with that.

They've read the "I am become Donuts, destroyer of Ports" bit.
It will end in tears Barbenheimer
What the actual *uck.
Mission statements, talk of redemption, revenge, there just pr crap and meaningless., just put out for media content Only gameday actions and performance count, if they win this ,it will be a trully memorable victory , cant find too many in the media, public or industry who think we can win, big issue by pundits is our poorly rated defence against a potent offence.

Why are we theming our finals campaign on one of the saddest and regretful occurrences of human history?

WE GONNA BLOOOOWWWW SHIT UP! SIRENS! CHAINSAWS! GREYHOUNDS! STEEL CHAIRS!
HINKLEEEEEEEEEEEEEYYYYYY!
really people, sounds like where getting into a high school social studies debate on the pros and cons of the using the bomb to end ww2.
It was a throwaway themeline to feed media crap , not a subject for serious moral discourse and debate.
I didn't think Hinkley should've been extended either.
Perhaps instead of employing fitness and dev coaches we need to employ ethicists and philosophers to help us construct less morally ambigous themes to spruke to the media thru finals periods.

They were originally going to go with a Barbie theme for the finals but Ken couldn’t comprehend that ‘Mojo Dojo Casa House’ all mean the same thing.

Ken: "The Port fanbase should be thanking me!"
Everyone else: "Well, they're not."

Ken has done a pretty good job of making the supporters feel like occupants of Nanjing when the Japanese came through. Maybe that's what the WWII references are about.
Yikes. That Oppenheimer theme really is something. Aside from the fairly obvious cultural insensitivity and moral ambiguity of the whole thing, is the idea that we’re standing on the shoulders of giants and this is a collective push encompassing the last 4 years really all that motivating? I’d be going with the opposite. Previous groups have failed. Yes. But not this group. Now it’s up to each and every one of you to be accountable. **** whatever has come before.
That sort of thing.
That sort of thing.

Sad and infuriating, but he'll be under no pressure. The club will build a fortress of deflection and excuses around him.
