Oppo Camp 2024 Finals Discussion (other games)

Sure it wasnt the Port fans?

sure they weren't saying boourns?

On a personal level, it would be devastating for Logan Macdonald was to miss another grand final. Injury didn't look great but hopefully he'll be ok

If Brisbane win who cares- if Geelong win- get well soon and speedy recovery Logan

Would be devastating for Heeney to miss another Grand Final too

it was bullshit he was dropped last GF (so much i'm amazed he's still at the Swans), so to miss another through injury would be harsh given he's played every game this year.

Ken flapped his arms up to Sydney full of bravado and cockiness and looked like he was going to cry in his presser. A week is a long time in footy Ken. Good riddance!

See ya in Bali Ken

 

[Birdofprey]

Massive loss for Port tonite. Have beaten the swans last 8 matches, and seem to match up well against them. So to lose tonite in the biggest game of the year is a huge failure.

David Koch is sharpening the knife as we speak.

See ya in Bali Ken

Lmaooooooo this has rattled me

 

[Roddy]

Karma for Kenny tonight…

 

[StackedHunch]

The reacharound given to Kern tonight by the media is a stark contrast to the thorough kicking they gave to Sic, Ginni and Mitch last week. Apparently Kern's behaviour last week had no bearing at all on Port's lacklustre performance tonight. And while he made it all about himself last week, he once again said it's not just about him tonight.
Hope the man is hounded out of his job next year. He deserves it.

Did anyone notice John Longmire swearing and gloating to Port Adelaide players as they were walking off the ground?

No?

Yeah, i didn't see that either. Funny that.

Hawks: Players backing themselves, looking beyond the next game and having ambition to win it all

Port: Only win to massage their ego and win for their mediocre coach, then give up when actual glory is within grasp.


I know which team I'd rather be backing for the next cup

Sicily spoke absolute truth - too bad Port supporters couldn't see they played their final last week. Was predictable. That side are absolute pea hearts.

Karma for Kenny tonight…

yep made it all about him last week, so his lack of class and professionalism was always going to be Port's undoing

 

[Kuuz]

The Sack Hinkley thread is a laugh right now.

It is genuinely so tempting to post this in there, after all the Hinkley pump ups & jabs they had at us last week:

Could you imagine how much of a dick he'd look like doing the plane dance to the Port players, all while eyeballing and abusing the captain as he's chairing off a 300 game champion? Really puts it in context how unacceptable Hinkley's behaviour was.

 

[Titch3Votes0MooreAA]

I love how Ken said we've been a nowhere club for 8 years when we've probably been the No. 1 recipient of Port players leaving.

 

[CHUBBSS]

If the AFL had the balls to put hawks vs port round 1 Friday night mcg and change the fixture it would be wild. It would sell out and their would probably be more then a few spot fires.

 

[toomanysquibs]

Sad Ken has a great record when it comes to eating pies.

Winning finals not so much.... 3 wins over the past 10 years. He's lost more Prelims than he's won finals games during that time.

0-4 in Preliminary Finals is nothing to flap your arms about Ken!

But what if one of them commented on an Instagram post in a way that implied he thought they'd win?

 

[Goats]

Congrats to Port on another successful and winning season.

 

[toomanysquibs]

There's so many ways an AFL coach could react to just their third Finals win in ten years, knowing you've not exactly set the world on fire previously.

You could be gracious and reticent. You could be ecstatic and use the moment to pump up your team. You could challenge your team to play better in a Preliminary Final, since you've never won one.

Or you could be 60 year-old Ken Hinkley en-route to a game he must have known he would lose:

We have an agreement to play Essendon in round one I think , But round zero ?

 

[Mitchell Madness]

There's no agreement for that.
The afl has seen the wisdom of playing the hawks and essendon early to ensure a large crowd. That's all

 

[CobberRodgers]

Feels sick to be happy after a Sydney prelim win.

Unfortunately for Port (but not for everyone else) their coach has now become bigger than the club, and we know all to well how that works out.

Best part is, he carried on so much last week that the only thing Koch could do this week was come out and back him publicly.

Love it.
