Roast I've lost my faith in Chris Davies

Jeez what dafuq did we do wrong in a past life to deserve the perfect storm of Koch, Hinkley, Davies and Richardson.......

That's a good question...
 
And there I was thinking the interview Chris Davies gave last year heartily endorsing the tenure of Ken Hinkley, claiming he's 'coaching better than he ever has' in his eleventh year was the biggest load of bullsh*t I'd ever heard. Well PowerLil, you were wrong. This morning's interview topped it.

We just need to pick up nick Daicos, Harley Reid, both de konigs, Charlie Curnow, izak Rankine, Sam Taylor and Christian petracca in the off season and things will be sweet moite
Forget the list! Every player under his coaching eventually turns to rubbish despite any talent they show when they arrive. Please get him out before it's too late for the good young players we do have! If I'm dead inside re football, I can't believe the players aren't too. They certainly play like they are!

Incidentally, if our list is so bad that mastercoach Ken couldn't possibly win a flag with it, why are Chris Davies, Jason Cripps and Geoff Parker all still employed?

The Port Adelaide Boys Club is just one giant buck passing machine.

What they must think ‘BeSt PrAcTiCe’ actually looks like down there is fascinating.

They let Nathan Bassett go (mutual? not mutual?) after a year in which he presided over a defence that the club acknowledged clearly wasn’t up to snuff in terms of key position personnel — highlighted by a failed summer bid for Esava Ratugolea, and the prior desperation moves of Sam Skinner and loose attempts to convert Bryn Teakle — ultimately going with:

• the fumes of a clearly cooked Tom Jonas who would’ve been cut in the preseason if list management aped the NFL,

• an increasingly banged-up and semi-washed Aliir,

• a permanently banged-up Trent McKenzie once again performing well above his station,

• whatever Ryan Burton was/is these days whenever asked to play a stopping role,

• the pleasant surprise of former 2nd Round Pick/delisted forward Dylan Williams having a breakout year as a composed third tall defender, but seemingly not preferred as a full-time successor to Jonas;

So after they bade farewell to Bassett, they go get Brandon Zerk-Thatcher and Ratugolea at around ~$1,500,000 in salary cap and in exchange for a few second round picks/Duursma.

Then they promote Tyson Goldsack to his first ever line-coaching gig at AFL level, to oversee what is a ginormous transition for the back six.

And all at a time when the overall gameplan calls for a high press that would ask massive questions of and potentially expose even the best tall defenders in the league as fishes out of water.

Exactly how high were the odds of all this paying off under those circumstances?

And they always seem genuinely shocked to the point of offended when they’re not greeted with a champagne shower and a lifetime supply of Dimoxinil from the fans when harebrained schemes like this don’t pan out.

Are you kidding? He's not giving up McEntee! :p
 
Fair dinkum Chris, I hate your guts. You snake. List, list, list, list, list. There's nothing wrong with the freakin list. Never has been. Get rid of your bro hand shaking, dog murdering buddy and the list looks infinitely better. You are a cancer that has spread through the club since you walked through the door end of 2014.

for the come from behind exhibition match win against Western Bulldogs in London

I was there. If I knew then what I know now I would have had Ken locked up in the Tower of London.
 
You know what I hate the most Ford? The blatant preclusion of fact when he speaks. I can't stand the guy. The interview was a complete embarrassment.

I'm glad I didn't hear it.

Never mind, everyone. Let’s take our first rounder, hit the draft, and—

What’s that?
Yeah but at least we got Brisbane's leading goal assist player today and a guy who got dropped for Jordon Sweet for it.

And if our list was/is so bad why did the club continue to trade out future drafts picks and trade in for fringe players? The revisionism that Davies wheels out is ridiculous.

Must be awesome being on the players list and having to follow this bumpkins game plan of win the midfield lock it in keep bombing it forward and when it doesn't work, try harder.

Followed by players aren't good enough to execute master plan 🙄

He's also the football manager! His statement makes him a failure at his job! We really are run by idiots! And they think we're stupid!
