I'm sure Bevo can console himself over this Round 17 loss by crying into his premiership medal.

Where are all da hinky haters now that Kenny has racked up back to back wins against st Kilda and the dogs???

Finals are scary

They are less scary if you don't know the opposition players.

Yep, say what you like about Ken, he has done very well to survive to this point considering his lack of finals success.

Ken Hinkley has a better win percentage than Luke Beveridge, and has a 10-5 head to head record against him.

Except he failed miserably when it mattered most

That's why he's got to get the arse. Got the wood over the bloke, except playing at home in a preliminary final. Ooh, scary but!

Hinkley got found out on this particular occasion, when his direct opponent got a pocket named after him:

Classic Hinks, giving up the chase before the ball was even kicked.

How easy! Hall got more space than Buzz Aldrin

After the past fortnight of all the channel 9 journos blowing steam up his ahh and the fox footy commentators talking him up post-game I think i can safely say that Port Adelaide fans have been the most gaslighted footy fans in the entire competition.

Funnily enough I'd actually hate Ken a lot less if it wasn't for his blind faith followers. Kane, Caro & Whately are all oxygen thieves. At least a critical voice might actually inspire him to change and improve instead of a bunch of back patters.

No one doubts his ability to survive.

It's his ability to win premierships at a level beyond Bell Park that is legitimately questioned.

Camperdown’99 & 2000…but yes

It’s amazing the turnaround Kenny has achieved the last few weeks. Port has never looked better. Good on Kenny.

It must be infuriating to have Damien Barrett continuously quote “never tear us apart, hey Port fans?” In defence of Ken.

I’m not even a Port fan and it enrages me.

**** off Damo.

So how many WC fans will be jumping at the idea of Ken?

Old mate Teflon Ken rocks back in his la-Z-boy & watches another knifing from afar.

Harley + Daddy = guaranteed prelim (exit)

Imagine someone saying after the 2018 season that Adam Simpson will be sacked before Ken Hinkley.
They would have been met with responses along the lines of 'pigs will fly too' and politicians will become trustworthy.

Right now, I'm going to make a bold statement and say that Craig McRae will be sacked before Ken Hinkley.
I know there's been pressure on Hinkley recently, but remember that David Koch said he wants to make Hinkley a 20 year coach.
At the end of the day, Koch controls the board and gets what he wants when it comes down to it.

GOAT coach in the AFL according to the media. One of the richest clubs in Australia should be throwing everything at getting him across this weekend.

Ken Hinkley has a better win percentage than Luke Beveridge, and has a 10-5 head to head record against him.

Luke Beveridge is also a very overrated coach.

 

[TP86]

Going to be an incredible week of Ken's high and mighty mates in the media lecturing the uncouth about booing. Bonus points for the first person to compare it to past booing incidents of other players and public figures.

The idea of Port being stuck with a finals flop for another decade was amusing enough but the possibility of media in overdrive to shield him being in charge of a team that misses finals is as funny as it is grotesque.

There is now a strong possibility that Ken Hinkley might leave Port in a worse state than how he found them, or at least similar. As much as they do have some midfield talent, if he survives to start the 2025 season the want-away players and nosediving crowds might mean both list and tarps-on-seats situation might end up right back around 2011-12.

Agent Hinkley sends Geelong to a home prelim almost like it was drawn up as a plan.

 

[Kram]

What a bum.

 

[Schulzenfest]

5 home finals losses in 7 years under Hinkley.
All 5 against teams we beat in the H&A season that year.
4 in games we were warm favourites.
3 were blowouts.

Quite genuinely the single biggest finals underperforming in AFL history.
