Ken could run for Governor of Minnesota, they're on the lookout for a football coach.

Then it's just a short hop to the Vice presidency.

Tragic and sad, but **** the dailymail for referring to him as the "petty crook". What crime did he commit?

Spoiler

Eating a meal? A succulent chinese meal?

Nothing as I recall. Was mistakenly arrested for using face ID and credit cards or some such thing.

Only two of those are journalists. Kornes and Stupid are media "personalities" and in the case of Kornes a shock jock.

Agreed as an example of blokes like Crowie describing themselves as `journalists,' Kenny Cunnington used to do that as well and he often struggled to put a coherent sentence together, if he ever wrote an opinion piece (ala a real journalist) he would have needed multiple ghost writers to make any sense out of it.

Geez what a flog.
"Melbourne at the G won't be easy"
Melbourne with no Petracca and May, half a Gawn and Oliver.
Stop with the bloody negative talk so you can use it as an excuse if we dont win.

Y'all gotta remember that the current generation of Port supporters have only seen Hinkley and the club getting to the Prelims as success.

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

That said I have never seen any professional sporting club constantly message to its supporters how hard it is to win it all and be grateful for what they have.

This is not even the squad rebuilding, we're doing all in trades to win the premiership too.

...

Not just a sporting club but any professional organisation. What business tells it's stakeholders that it's too hard to be successful and they should just be grateful that they're still in business.

The Power Outage: A Tale of Mud, Missteps, and a Royal Flush​

In the annals of footy history, the Port Adelaide Power team has always been a force to reckon with. But in a recent match that could only be described as a comedy of errors, the Power found themselves short-circuited, not by the opposition, but by their own sideline shenanigans.

The man at the centre of this debacle? None other than Ken Hinkley, or as he’s affectionately known in the locker room, ‘Stinkley’ or ‘Stinkers’. Now, Stinkers was supposed to be a humble mud remover, a man whose sole job was to ensure the players’ boots were free of mud, using nothing but his tongue. A task, one might argue, that requires a certain level of dedication and a complete lack of taste buds.

However, Stinkers decided that his role needed an upgrade. He took it upon himself to offer some unsolicited coaching advice to the team. His strategy? “Relax, chill out, and waste time.” A mantra more suited to a beach holiday than a high-stakes footy match.

This didn’t sit well with the real coach, Josh Carr

. A man who believes in action, agility, and absolutely no time-wasting. The tension between Carr and Stinkers came to a head in the most unlikely of places - the club toilets.

As the story goes, Carr confronted Stinkers about his interference. The argument, much like the toilets themselves, was anything but clean. Words were exchanged, accusations were thrown, and the echo of a flushing toilet provided the dramatic soundtrack to their showdown.

In the end, Carr decided to give Stinkers a lesson he wouldn’t forget. With a swift move that would have been impressive on the field, Carr gave Stinkers a ‘royal flush’. No, not the poker hand, but a dunk in the toilet that left Stinkers sputtering and, for once, speechless.

In the aftermath of the ‘Royal Flush Incident’, the Power team has rallied together, vowing to keep their focus on the field rather than the sidelines. As for Stinkers, he’s back to his mud-removing duties, a little wetter behind the ears and hopefully, a lot wiser.

So, the next time the Power team takes to the field, remember this tale. A reminder that in footy, as in life, it’s not just about the players, but also about those on the sidelines. And sometimes, all it takes is a royal flush to put things into perspective.

It was because they say it was. Does anyone really think that’s going to be some sort of normal?
I’ve already said people here are being seduced by last week.

 

[Del165198]

It's already about reducing expectations. Such a loser club

Maybe thats the real story.

Ken wants to quit but hes being held against his will in a dungeon below alberton which is why his social and oratory skills suck. Hes getting fritzled.

It’s nuts. Like, we get it. It’s the AFL. You can’t be complacent. There are no easy games. Blah blah blah.

But he sells that message in the most miserable, pessimistic, “I’m clearly opening the door for a ‘hey! don’t blame me! I warned them!’ post-match presser smirkathon! wink” way.

 

[Steve Dore]

"We only have to look at the ladder," Port Adelaide senior coach Ken Hinkley said

Yes you loser, Melbourne are 12th on the ladder but you're scared of playing them.

"Last time we got beat"

But that was with a completely different list to the one you've got now, right?

 

[Del165198]

How hard would it be to say:

We won't be complacent, we know Melbourne can produce some good foody so we'll have to be on our game, but we believe our best should be good enough.
