Ignoring the fact that the number would have been 53000, if we'd had a competent coach.
Prime time football is scary.
Big crowds are scary.
Playing a contending team is scary.
Showdowns are scary.
Night time is scary.
Playing bingo are you?
Just an aside, I'd love to see more haikus on the banners.
Won't work. SACK HINKLEY has only 3 syllables.

How many daughters has Hinkley got?
Keep dancing after games you clown.
Keep being happy with playing 1 quarter against bottom 4 teams.

If Ken is still our coach on 2025, I'm starting to ponder about whether I'll even watch our games, let alone attend them.

Not a lot of love for the donut king on the socials after that one.
I guess people were expecting more? Which is surprising that they haven't figured it out after all these years, but better late than never.

I'm going to ask a bizarre question.
Does Hinkley actually care about winning games of football?
Maybe a better question is:
Is the main focus of Kenny Average to win games of football?
It sounds bizarre but I don't think he does.
You can't be joking around after losing a game.
You can't be seen smiling or hugging opposition players after a loss.
A real coach who loses a game should be hurting after a loss and go back to the drawing board to find out what the problems are.
Kenny just goes back to Plan A.
It's literally one of the weirdest traits I've ever seen from a supposed Port Adelaide person.
Maybe apart from Koch which is a whole other world of absurdism.

Even if something happens and Hinkley ceases to be our coach, I will not have belief if the current assistants, the chair, ceo, Davies and multiple board members are also not gone. They're all in on this loser ethos.

The club fobbed at supporters' concerns when Hinkley was smooching Dangerfield after the loss last year.
The custodians believe that they understand Port Adelaide better than Port Adelaide supporters. Their collective egos are a strong dark force.

It looks like its done.
Even the greatest Pharisee of the Happy Clappers knows after a decade with precision that we have a good list that lacks heart and direction.
We structure, Kens game plan provides nothing. Last night the gap was so evident in a team with structure and a team that looks lost, especially going forward, what the hell Kenny and Chadbro practice all summer?? How to laugh?
What on earth has ever made you think Hinkley is a Port Adelaide person?
Funny thing is, having opinions like we all do means nothing when the cold hard facts say ‘is Ken ever winning anything’ - no. Has he been here long enough (yes)…. It’s such a simple board decision to get rid of him, (now) - but it’s just not that works anymore.
It’s going to have to go to shit to have him removed…. Then they will say ‘see what you supporters did’…..
Koch must know he’s on a hiding to nothing now. The gap last night was stark. We are a zillion miles away from it.
I hate to say it but we are better off falling apart for the rest of the year, it’s the only way because god knows our board hasn’t hit the guys to just sack him now based on my earlier points.
It’s a loop of doom we are riding…..
Nothing.

He seemed genuinely upset after the PF loss to Hawthorn, but since then, it looks like it's just a job to him.

Maybe it was just the section I was sitting in last night down the Southern End, but the crowd really was flat as a tack for the whole game. Almost as if people knew what was going to transpire so were not getting their hopes up.
