I’m no fan of him either.
I just can’t see them making a change.
They’ve all backed him and strongly support him any chance they are asked about him.
I’d be amazed if they made a move on him.
I actually think it’s more likely he goes to them and calls it a day.
The pressure is really building now it'll be nauseating for him once finals are completely pie in the sky.
 
This is exactly it. What the hell have we done to cop this rubbish?
We don't take a stand as a club against anything. Koch won't ruffle any feathers neither will Richo. Want proof where was the prison bar debate this week for the Showdown? Nowhere. Not a email, a tweet about it, nothing. Koch and co are there just to be friendly and serve their boss nothing more. Hinkley is the epitome of what Koch wants. Not having a go at you or your post but that's the answer. We are run by the "nice" guy and coached by the "nice" guy. Hence we are what we are now.

We are screaming out for a Clarkson or Ross Lyon type coach who won't cop any shit, be it from the media, the AFL, Koch or whatever else. It's what we are screaming out for a actual leader as coach. Someone who will challenge Koch, and everything else. The foundation is there with 55,000 members etc just get the coach right and the rest will follow.
 
That should be the end of Motlop. Ive been a fan but surely we would be better putting games into Sinn or Burgoyne.

I read that as saying putting games into Shaun Burgoyne and even then I was nodding in agreement.
 
In a game of terrible umpiring, no surprise it ended with a terrible umpiring decision. Feel sorry for Mayes as he played a decent game

Our senior players were terrible all game in the middle and our defense was dreadful for most of it. We still had three opportunities in the game to make it safe but missed them as always. We deserve to lose just for that.

We now are 0-3 with a prime time game against Melbourne next week. 0-4 is certain. I dunno how the club can continue to back Ken, surely there is no coming back now. There will be no finals, no redemption for last season, so what are you selling us? You can't keep telling the fans we are wrong about this team.
Mayes was sloppy even if it wasn't technically a free.

Then again I'd rather a ayer bust his gut and be a bit sloppy than not try like last week.
 
Our fitness is clearly an issue, we are not finishing games or quarters out. It’s been obvious by three quarter time in every game that we are spent.

Thought our forwards were good today in kicking goals and applying pressure

Defence was terrible, would be happy to never see Skinner in at port ever again. Team defence is also seriously lacking.

Once again though struggling to handle momentum.

Boak boy oh boy, you gotta kick those.

Kenny, times up. Time to leave.

Did McKeown leaving have an effect on our fitness?
We seem to have lost a lot of quality staff.
Trimmed down to save miney.
Heading back to 2011 ?

It’ll never get that bad. That was around the time we were spending pennies on football, and the SANFL was still accusing us of wasteful spending. And we still benchmark against that era haha.
 
Any serious club would have come out breathing fire tonight against a bottom 4 side and on the back of being humiliated last week, not to mention coming into the game 0-2.

You’re about to see a serious free-fall.
They were there to be killed off when we got out over 20 points a few times, we are just incapable of it.
 
This result is so genuinely hilarious I can’t believe it. I called it halfway through the second term. Such an obvious result under a Ken Hinkley coached side.

The funny part is that we’re one massive step closer to him resigning/being sacked. It’s actually quite funny. Or maybe I’m delusional now idk
 
Not going to say much about the game as I'll just get shouted down by the usual suspects but pretty clear the club is now in crisis and that things are only going to get worse from here. Very long year ahead.

This club is entering into a black hole the likes of which we saw post the 2007 grand final. This is going to take years and a broom through the entire club to correct.

To quote Sheriff Tom Bell, If it ain't (a mess) it'll do until a mess gets here.
 
To be fair to Murphy he had a metal plate inserted in to his neck just 2 months ago, so he may have flared something up there.
Nevertheless, that was not a free kick and its ****ing convenient Dawson was allowed to take the kick.

Not that it matters. 2022 is done.

From memory we didn't add

From memory we promoted internally to replace McKeown but never sourced a replacement for the now vacant position.
