As said above, it wasn't his idea, and he offered the Farnham song The Voice.
As someone who was a part of the group that led Collingwood's EGM push last year, we are more than happy to provide some expertise in the art of a bloody coup.
Our fees are reasonable. Please message for further info.

Impossible under our club's constitution. Even if every single one of the 50k+ members were in favour of it, we don't have the power to spill the board.
There are probably more Collingwood supporters on our board than there were on yours.

Koch is not the problem. I think he has been great for the club. Bit worried about the CEO at the moment.

sucking a lemon
the guy who came in and said he needed to manage our expectations after leaping from 14th to 5th, which is exactly what he's done by installing weak non-Port people from top to bottom, is not the problem eh?

Thanks for the input David
Koch was the one that appointed our CEO. Koch is the one that ALWAYS back Ken in. Koch is the one that famously declared he wanted a 10 year coach. Koch is a huge problem!!!

I think we've not only found a shit fish that can't climb trees, we've found an incredibly stupid one that can't swim or breathe underwwater
Great comment from Peter-
Dont you get it folks…Hinkley isn’t going to resign, he’s got to keep up the charade about being positive and not giving up. If he’s sacked, Port have to pay out the remainder of his contract. Not the case, unless negotiated, if he resigns.
He’s basically daring Port to sack him but they haven’t got the guts to do it because Koch backed him all the way. Koch is too proud to admit that keeping Hinkley was a mistake. So this debacle will keep going on.
Watch next week. If they lose to Carlton it will all be about them letting the wrong guy go, Michael Voss, and then the pressure will be right on Koch.
What is wrong with the club is that the board and senior administration is comprised of big corporate wokesters and SJWs. Nothing like the old Port culture. This is a just big ego trip for the corporates. Just another line on their resume of board appointments.
only way to sort this out is for members to get the numbers & have a special meeting to vote the corporate wokesters out, especially Koch. A fish rots from the head.

I think if they just borrowed a Monkey from Adelaide zoo and taught it to drink Coke Zero, most of us wouldnt notice
If you think the problem is the board is too 'woke' or too concerned with 'SJW issues' you might be surprised with the kinds of people the Chairman gives a platform to on his program and the views of his co-presenter he was happy to sit alongside for so long.

Probably end up with more insightful press conferences too
No, but I'll look into it.
Not sure if a franchise is completely precluded from the Corporations Act and unable to undertake an EGM. Technically we're all franchises of the AFL.\
This might be a good chance to take control back of your club.
Agree.
Strange that Richo gets such a pass when everything has turned to shit since his appointment... could not be handling the current situation worse.

Yes, it's the wokesters and SJW's, that's what it is. Well done on finally getting to the bottom of it Pete.

I'm starting to think that this is what they actually did in 2013.
Did any orangutans go missing around then?
