Opinion Sack Hinkley 10 - UnTENable

[Del165198]

Did Korn Kane launch a scathing attack on port on the Sunday footy show?

 

[tribey]

I don't know whether you could say he was outcoached today but what I would say is probably something worse in that because of the gameplan we implement, the game was lost before a ball was bounced.

Collingwood was so confident that their contested ball would eventually override our skills that even a tinny first quarter kicking for goal did not deter them one bit from blowing us out of the water.

As soon as they got back to within 2 goals, did anyone — Hinkley Haters, Happy Clappers, one and all — seriously expect us to weather the storm and win the game?

If the shoe was on the other foot, we’d perhaps expect to get within a goal, or maybe even hit the front, only to engage in an arse-twitching arm wrestle we’d almost certainly lose (see the 2017 Elimination Final, 2015 Phil Walsh Showdown).

Collingwood yesterday, though?

Literally everyone who has ever even mildly followed this club over the past decade knew Collingwood weren’t just gonna win, but cruise to a season-resurrecting percentage booster.

Why are we still married to this klutz?

I wouldn't put it past Koch to pick a dud just to say "i told you so".

Mind you Koch picking a dud could turn out to be a great coach, seeing as he has no idea.

They covered the game in about 30 seconds because they had to get to Browny's Game ... Kornes did say about Port You can't trust them in big games, didn't say why.

The commentary noted in the third quarter that we are easy to play against once the smell of blood is in the water. And basically it's an indictment on us as a football club. And how it's one of the worst things when you can be known as mentally weak, and that once an opposition gets on top they go to water.

That was what happened. We couldn't win a contest. It was the same in the Freo eagles game last night.

Once Collingwood got momentum we couldn't stop it. How that happens when you keep getting goals over the back and an empty goalsquare.... Like come on just sent 18 back and have someone patrol the goal line. It's not hard. Bog it right down. Get to half time and reload. But naaaaaahhhhhh

I am starting to think that maybe Ken Hinkley is not the right man for the job of coaching Port Adelaide!

 

[chachi11]

The whole coaches box needs to be nuked...anyone involved in the stench of Hinkley needs to go. Carr can go coach the camries for all I care.

 

[manureid]

This is awesome. Imagine being 11 years in to your job and still having no idea what you are doing. It's actually incredible

 

[tribey]

Carr can go coach the camries for all I care.

Now now, he’s only 44 and still very green. If Ken stays until say 2028/9, Carr will be cherry ripe to take the reins on the verge of raising the bat for his half-century.

Learnings and education. At least we can take those from the game right?

And what did we learn from the game?

Sack Hinkley

He's the human Titanic all he knows is how to sink

Sack Hinkley

There are some numbers.

Iceberg dead ahead!

Keep going boys its only on the surface cos I got to get to New York quickly to collect my cheque

 

[Port 2004]

I have no doubt we contacted Hardwick he just wasn't interested. It's hard to get anyone to come to Adelaide.

My point being don’t close off other options with a succession plan. I could have said Ron Barrassi. It was an example.

 

[PortPortPort]

Stickerman you are our only hope.

 

[Cam1870]

2019 no-captains decision was when I worked it out.

I drank the cool aid until about that point too

Shit coach with nfi. And we keep appointing from within which in our case is the definition of insanity. Like shit, these guys are going to have different ideas. Mickey Mouse organisation where nothing ever changes. I will be drafting an email to that spud Richardson this week.

Not much to talk about, hard to criticise Bevo when they win by 10 goals

 

[Cam1870]

Not sure he would. Ken dragged him to 300 games when Primus rightfully wanted to delist him. He'll forever be his sweetheart for that.

In the history of mankind there's never been anybody as right as primus was about cornes

 

[Interstater]

So angry that we are still stuck with this incompetent hillbilly.
Beating the bottom 10 sides is NOT ENOUGH.

GTFO of this club AFL.

And with a complete new bag of tricks that he learned under Commander Kenny.

Keep this under your hat, but have heard Carr is struggling to master the finger wiggle.

He claims it’s a result of a tendon injury suffered in his playing days, but certain board members are having none of it.
