Game Day Port vs Brisbane

[longdonkey]

I have an idea. When you’re 40 points down at half time, tactical-sub out your centre half back.

I would make an assumption that Zerk-Thatcher has been playing injured for some time now. Learnings.

 

[Palpatine_Power]

Say what you want about Hinkley, he really knows how to get a team up for a big game

 

[SpamFowlPepper]

Surely ken walks the plank now this is a f*#kin shit show

He’d quit before we sack him.

Convinced the AFL is totally corrupt
The umps are either corrupt or incompetent or perhaps they all have high level jobs in the gambling industry awaiting them like demetriou or McLachlan, seems to be the chosen career path for afl execs

Nothing to do with Umps, 10 consective goals to the Lions when will Port stop the zone defence and go man on man

[Coobk001]

Wow, if this isn't a sack the coach game, what is.

We're completely broken. There's ZERO belief, hope, energy in the crowd and it's finally filtered into the team.

UNTENABLE.

On track for the opposite score of the last time we wore this guernsey against Brisbane in 2014, Port won by 113 pts that day.

Midfield is our Achilles heel according to Timmy G.
Thanks Carr, you can go too.

 

[Capital Power]

Better fire up those bot accounts for the after game Facebook comments

Ken Hinkley has dedicated his heart and soul to Port Adelaide, and it's time we recognize the tireless effort and unwavering commitment he brings to the club. To those calling for his sacking after a tough loss against Brisbane, let's take a moment to reflect on the broader journey he's been steering. Hinkley is more than just a coach; he's a leader who has weathered storms and celebrated triumphs with a deep-seated passion for the team. Every coach faces challenging moments, but it's his resilience and dedication that have consistently kept Port Adelaide competitive and formidable.

It's easy to demand a coach's head after a disappointing game, but let's not forget the groundwork Hinkley has laid. He's nurtured a culture of resilience, unity, and ambition within the club. The development of young talents under his guidance has been exceptional, turning rookies into star players. These achievements are not immediately apparent in the aftermath of a loss but are critical for the long-term success and sustainability of the team. Hinkley's vision goes beyond one game or one season; it's about building a legacy.

Port Adelaide's consistent presence in the finals over the years is a testament to Hinkley's strategic brilliance. This level of consistency is rare and speaks volumes about his coaching prowess. Critics might fixate on the losses, but true supporters understand the value of sustained performance. Hinkley has crafted a team that not only competes but often dominates, pushing the boundaries of what the club can achieve. This resilience and competitive edge do not come by chance; they are the results of meticulous planning and unwavering dedication.

Moreover, Hinkley’s rapport with his players is something to be cherished. He has fostered an environment where players feel valued and motivated. His genuine care for their development, both on and off the field, has created a strong, loyal team dynamic. This isn't something that can be easily replaced or replicated. The bond he has built with the team is a foundation for enduring success, and it deserves recognition and respect.

So, to the haters and naysayers, it's easy to criticize from the sidelines. But true support means standing by your team and its leader through thick and thin. Hinkley's passion for Port Adelaide is undeniable, and he has proven time and again that he is the right man for the job. Let’s not forget the memorable victories and the joy he has brought to the fans. Before casting stones, remember that the journey of building a great team is long and winding, filled with ups and downs. Hinkley has the vision and heart to lead us through it all.

And here's a surprise: amidst all the criticism, it’s worth noting that Hinkley has just been named AFL Coach of the Year by his peers. This accolade isn't just about wins and losses; it's about recognizing the profound impact a coach has on the game, their team, and the league. So let’s rally behind him and celebrate the leader who continues to give his all for Port Adelaide.
