Can Port win a premiership under Ken Hinkley?

In respect to our list depth, we did have 5 best 22 players out last night.

Not many other finalists have that and that’s why those like Narkle, Evans, Mcentee etc have got games all year.

Most clubs depth falls away after their top 25 odd players reasonably quick.

However even if we had our best squad available, the game play wouldn’t be any different. We’d still be bombing it forward to no one. We’d still be kicking to mismatches. It wouldn’t have changed last nights results as history shows, our game plan doesn’t stack up.

True, however we wouldn't have had Boak and Burton attempting those corridor kicks and turning it over, which led directly to about 5 Sydney goals

Why would the coaches view be prioritised over the list manager? It makes their role redundant. Sure Hinkley would have a say but that’s not his job who they draft and trade for.

Just give Kenny 22 all Australians and he might have a chance

The fact is every premiership side has a few bog average triers. A smart coach utilises their strengths and minimises their weaknesses. They still are able to contribute as role players. For the last decade we've relied heavily on individual brilliance rather than system. Good enough to beat the crap teams but unsustainable against good ones.

Upon reflection.

There is no better time to stick fat with a coach then now. Power fans just need to stick fat.

Power fans need to think big picture. You finished second for christ sakes. Had you won the first final and got yourselves a home final you would be in the granny.

Absolutely zero confidence in that statement. This is Port under Ken we’re talking about.
