Chris Davies - PAFC General Manager of Football

[Cam1870]

Twas the summer of George. And now the winter of our discontent

 

[gbear]

Hinkley is very much gone based on that interview. Chris the same. If go you to the part about the succession plan, that is very obvious. About the 15 min mark from memory.

I didn't get the same read on that part regarding Hinkley. However, I agree that it is unlikely that Davies will be at Port next year with how he answered that question.

Already up on Youtube.

Jeeeebus. I thought Ken's pressers were excruciating.

 

[afl2004]

Interesting when Josh Money asked CD about how Port will improve from being 18th in the AFL for goal kicking conversion.

CD replies that other clubs get into our backline easily and score easy goals which inflate their numbers, while our forward line is packed and it's very hard to kick goals.

Lol basically hinkley ball is trash

 

[Enviable Tradition]

lol unintentional admission that Hinkley’s game plan is inefficient and doesn’t hold up in finals

Hopefully it was intentional.

No doubt he is on his way out. I hope we have a gun replacement lined up.

Wouldn't surprise me if we go down the internal route and give Jason Cripps

Haha wow he literally says 'when the time comes that hinkley doesn't want to coach anymore, i guess we'll have to find someone else'

what is happening

Perhaps the campaigner doesn't want to coach anymore? I highly doubt it though :-(

You seriously can't make up the shit that comes out of the talking heads at Alberton!

or is he towing the company spin in that when hinkers goes it's his own decision despite in reality he's got the arse?

hopes and prayers

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

"any suggestion that our squad hasn't achieved something this year is entirely wrong"

Sad day

Did he elaborate further on what the club considers a success?

 

[Sheeds]

Did he elaborate further on what the club considers a success?

It was a growth year.....

 

[PowerLil]

He avoided confirming Ken will be here going forward. A positive.

 

[afl2004]

Going to Collingwood steals a port target for Collingwood lmfao

What a shit weasle

[RussellEbertHandball]

Already up on Youtube.

At 19.30 Norts says "last couple guys."

CD responds with - "I'm happy to stay. This is the last time these people get me.""

Says it all I reckon.

I read it in a similar way to that, based on the way he dodged the question about Collingwood's interest in him and about Ken's future.

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

Actually do wonder if Ken not being guaranteed who Davies backs also ties in together with him going to Collingwood

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

CD replies that other clubs get into our backline easily and score easy goals which inflate their numbers, while our forward line is packed and it's very hard to kick goals.

I'm not sure if this was CD's intended comments but at least someone from the club has suggested that the gameplan is shit and not blaming the failures on luck or anomalies.

 

[elbarton]

I read it in a similar way to that, based on the way he dodged the question about Collingwood's interest in him and about Ken's future.

Yeah, it’s my reading too. He’s trying to establish the message of “no one is bigger than the club”, everyone has ann expiry date etc. It’s a few years late, no doubt, but that’s the story/legacy he is trying to shape as he and Hinkley step down IMO- selfless types will hand the baton to the next generation and so on.

I genuinely don’t care what story they spin as long as we get the circuit breaker FWIW.

 

[Coobk001]

**** me. How's the mediocrity speak.

Basically, internally we're celebrating what a successful year it has been. He doesn't want the players to go away down and not thinking about how successful they've been this year. ---- Said on 5AA as well today

I mean what the actual ****.

Celebrate failure, and you breed an acceptance of it.

**** I'm sick of the piss poor attitude to winning.

It's not always about winning, it's not always about premierships every year. But how you perform against expectations. This year we finished 2nd, we marched home, then we flopped beyond belief in the finals series. Don't try and call that a form of success, it was a HUGE underperformance. We had a good minor round, yes, but the opportunity blown AGAIN was done so in such a poor way it wipes away any credit to that minor round performance.

to elect port as his destination over the favourites which are collingwood, when CD is the one who is potentially going to move to Collingwood.

 

[Doctor Feel]

Conflict of interest in Chris Davies supposedly 'trying' to convince Harry Perryman to elect port as his destination over the favourites which are collingwood, when CD is the one who is potentially going to move to Collingwood.

Lol the club condones and promotes conflicts of interest and nepotism, so its really not that surprising. Zero integrity in this club.

 

[Lefti93]

I hope we get Perryman and his clueless head goes to Collingwood.

 

[Pt Augusta Power]

I hope we get Perryman and his clueless head goes to Collingwood.

He was pretty certain that Perryman would not be coming to Port. Just happens that Perryman is now going to Collingwood

 

[Ford Fairlane]

How about just once we stick our flag in the sand and make a stand on something?
