Certified Legendary Thread Sack Hinkley 12 - Finals Are Scary

[PowerLil]

I would've sacked after the game where he cried if we were looking at this year in isolation, emotional susan moments after a minor round game are a massive cooked signal.

He did it after the Sydney game last year. He's a manipulator and performs these little acts right on cue. I don't believe for one second the tears were real.

 

[TazD]

They should sack him as soon as the lame GF parade starts.

 

[PowerLil]

First lot of "tears" was the Sydney game after starting the year poorly. Got smacked in the showdown the week after being thrashed by Collingwood.
Second lot of "tears" was produced after we scraped over the Saints by a point after being thrashed by Brisbane at home on the 20 year anniversary of the '04 GF where he was loudly booed off the ground.
The Ginnivan semantics were after we got thrashed in a home QF.
Orchestrated for maximum effect.

There'll be bluebirds all over when Hinkley's days are over . . . Bring on VK Day.

I think they were because he made the week all about himself.

We encourage you to continue supporting the team and trust in the process.

lol

McEntee should personally hand deliver the termination notice during the half-time sprint.

Boohoohoohoo we beat st Kilda ohhhh da players love me and the fans are nasty flogs booing me waaaaah

 

[Us against the rest]

To all the media and supporters in the AFL, ask yourselves one thing, at your club, would you put up with a 12 year coach that turns to jelly in finals, a coach that never interacts or mentions the fans. A coach that never excepts any responsibility for the heartbreak his coaching delivers, I could go on but it's been said hundreds of times before.

If the answer is no, get behind the Port Adelaide supporters that want change.

Your club could be next, take your money turn up at games, buy merch and be quiet, while the guy coaching you gets paid $900,000 .

The AFL is ruining our game and our rights as paying members.

I don't think the broadcast has enough time for that

 

[Bump Bailey]

He has become central to every single narrative that runs through the club. Partly brings it on himself, partly media-led.

It’s just not a good thing to have everything at a club be about the coach. Totally unsustainable. Can’t continue.

It staggers me that we're continually portrayed as the bad guys here. How dare we demand success for our club? How dare we boo poor Kenny, who's been such a loyal servant of the club for more than a decade? I'm sick of it.

kicked 10 goals against Port in 2019 a week after North kicked one goal in an entire game? Good times!

150+ years of history has been building to the pinnacle of keeping the Hinkley Hillbillies employed for life.

Nothing else matters.

 

[rogerjames]

The club needs to realise that we will not stop until Ken is gone. If they want to continue to drag the club thru this then we are up for the fight.

That 2025 Giants membership is looking likely.

Also, Ken acts bigger than the club itself. It’s always about what’s best for him or what’s right for him, like when it’s right for him to step away—not what’s best for the club to move forward. The players just don’t play for Ken, and it’s their fault. Poor Kenny, he has it so hard because of those ungrateful Port supporters.

It’s so easy to not like him and people wonder why we speak about him the way we do.

My pooch insisted we pass by Hinkley's house this morning whilst on our walk to see if there's a removalist van out the front. We're both sad to report not yet.

 

[JimmyBC]

Does he still come in for fish and chips Macca19 ?

 

[Thunderer]

You all thought he was a hero when we finished second in the minor round.

Especially after beating a bottom 4 side by a point

 

[PAFC66]

Was speaking to an ex player yesterday who played only a few games under Choco.

But he summed it up pretty well, asked him about the last two finals campaigns and he just said "they're pretenders".

Then wen't on to talk about how close Ken came to being sacked a couple times this year, & basically how untenable the situation was.

But at this point I'm fully expecting us to roll on into next year with Ken, no succession plan formalised, no real changes, after the first couple successive losses the boos will start, media attention and heat will skyrocket and get bad enough they will then be forced to announce the succession, and the whole year will be a write off.

No chance. He's not here next year

I hope said pooch was suitably attired at the time?

Carrying on like we'd won the flag at the Cattery was another embarrassing lowlight.

 

[philreich]

Carrying on like we'd won the flag at the Cattery was another embarrassing lowlight.

What annoyed me even more that night was how well we played in the first quarter. Those 30 minutes of football proved categorically that the players have the talent, and that they're good enough to compete with the big boys. We just can't sustain it under this coach, which is why he needs to leave. I'm confident that we'll see that type of football more often under Carr.
