It should be the same thing.Which just shows that for them its not about Port having success, its about them having success.

Yes but what I mean is that sometimes the best thing possible for the club is to step away, and let someone else deliver success, even if that means you get no personal credit for it.It should be the same thing.
Even though there has been intel to the contrary, I just assume numero uno to be true because the board has always taken the bland, easy option.What are Ken's options if no club is asking the question?
1. He stays at Port and the club let him see out his contract. (The likely scenario going on the clubs track record).
2. He does the right thing and walks away. (Ha ha we all know the selfish prick wont do this).
3. Port tell him his time is up and pay him out his 2025 year. (This is possible no we are more financial but do they have the balls, I doubt it).

You're keeping me alive at the moment.If I didn't have the Intel direct from the source I'd be believing option 1 as well.
Sorry to sound like a doubting Thomas, I so hope your are spot on, it's just this club, we could have let him go previously but extended him.If I didn't have the Intel direct from the source I'd be believing option 1 as well.

'I am coaching Port': Power the focus as Hinkley dismisses Eagles talk
Ken Hinkley insists he remains focused on leading Port Adelaide to a premiership, dismissing speculation linking him to West Coastwww.afl.com.au
'I am coaching Port': Power the focus as Hinkley dismisses Eagles talk
"It's really clear about one thing: I am coaching Port Adelaide and I love coaching Port Adelaide and I have a contract to continue to coach Port Adelaide."
The 57-year-old, who has coached more games (266) than anyone else in V/AFL history without reaching a grand final, has also been under an intense spotlight around his position at the Power.
Hows this next bit lol, wtf is he talking about.
But he isn't frustrated by the constant noise.
"Not at all because I'm so used to it. Everyone is so used to it in the competition," Hinkley said.
"There has to be a story and there has to be someone that they talk about.
"I get it. There's a lot of other people that's been mentioned.
"Unfortunately I get mentioned lots of times on different things."
Without your intel and providing us with some hope that he's gone, I think I may have given up, thanks for your input.#2 won't happen. The chance of #1 happening is less than 5%. Everyone at the Club knows it is time for a change.
Agreed but will he fit in the box and we don't want him to eat Carr lol.Reckon Dew would be a great 2IC to Carr. Kind of Alan Richardson to Hinkley.
I think I'm against that. He did nothing at the Suns.Reckon Dew would be a great 2IC to Carr. Kind of Alan Richardson to Hinkley.

I'll say, Chewy - you're deserved of this years POTY award if this all comes to fruition in 6-8 weeks time.
We'd have to be the #1 watched board at this rate, regardless of outcome.

Buckley would be my first choice for reasons but if it's Carr I'm comfortable with that too.I like the idea of a Buckley, the homecoming, etc. However my issue with him is that unlike Voss did under Hinkley, Buckley hasn't spent years honing his craft after stepping away.
You can't just step away and then step back in, thinking FIGJAM I've got this.
I don't care who coaches us, as long as they are the best candidate. Though I would prefer an external to really give us hope again. A Carr appointment has to come with a board apology for executing the wrong strategy.

The likes of Rozee, Butters, JHF will be fantastic to watch under a new coach and game style.It would mean a massive off season like after the first season of Twin Peaks.
There would be a lot of players moving on like old players, gold pass players, poor form players, etc.
Also, a change in coaching staff. I hope a fair whack of the old band is back with a couple of high level assistants with a dynamic development coach.
A new gameplan being implemented which is not Hinkleyball so that is exciting in itself.
The Houston rumours allows Carr to get a couple of toys he needs.
We could do a fair whack of trading.
We have a fair whack of father, sons and Bennay the NGA coming in cheap as chips.
The old guard will be finally finished with Hinkley, Boak, Dixon the last to go. The new guys have the keys well and truly for themselves.
I just hope the word accountable is the buzz word for the new regime.
cause ya a shit coach idiot![]()
