Imagine if we win the flag and piss Davies wants to celebrate with the players. They should tell him to get stuffed.
Which is the only statement that actually mattered at the time those were made.Of the three statements he makes the only one that may be proven wrong is the first that the list might not be good enough.

our list might not be good enough but we are not playing as well as we should be
Well our list is stacked like GWS or Sydney with Academy players that’s for sureAs I see it, it means: “our list is better than what has been showing, even though it’s not good enough [to play against the best].”
The key is that he admits that the list isn’t good enough. It was the day after Hinkley implied the same thing.

After the Brisbane game it would be easy to think that.As I see it, it means: “our list is better than what has been showing, even though it’s not good enough [to play against the best].”

It doesn’t matter.
It’s year 12.
They once again were shifting the goal posts. It was “the best list” Hinkley had “ever have” in February — and Hinkley has 3 PF and 1 Minor Premiership in his CV.
It’s always “I win; we draw; they lose” with this regime.
Of course.May I use it as the title to create another thread on the regime?
Not that I take a lot of notice what Hinkley says but he also said in that interview.It doesn’t matter.

At our best we can match it with any team.
Yes he should have gone years ago but he’s still here.
And if we win the flag he might be here even longer.

I don’t see it that at way.
I see it as ‘“our list may or may not be good enough, but even if it’s not, there’s no excuse for the way we are currently playing.”
If you are Chris Davies, you must defend the list. It was deemed AWESOME at beginning of the season, and you are the one responsible for it. You can defend the list either by stating that you believe in it ("I don't know why we aren't competing at the level we believe we can, but we are sure that this list is capable of doing it") or by deflecting the attention bringing it towards you ("the players are working hard, and this list was supposed to be strong; if it's not, as the current results seem to be showing, then we need to assess what we have misevaluated").
Otherwise, you are just throwing the players under the bus.
"I don't know why we aren't competing at the level we believe we can, but we are sure that this list is capable of doing it"
is the same as
"our list may or may not be good enough, but even if it’s not, there’s no excuse for the way we are currently playing"
I think its easy to over-interpret what is said and read way too much into it.
Gee, I wonder why..................?He's very good at applying for other jobs. Not so good at actually getting them.
Malibu, I don’t see it.
That “may not be good enough” was in the very next day of Hinkley saying that the list is not up to it. It means “it’s not good enough”.
It’s not overinterpreting when it’s not the first time. It has always been something else for YEARS. It’s the same people who went to the 2019 Members Convention pretending 2018 never happened.
They don’t deserve any benefit of doubt or “bona fide” interpretation. They must state everything as clear as possible. When they do not, it should be read as an attempt to cover their asses. It’s what they do.
