WhyAlwaysMe recently remarked that he looks like Little Bill from Boogie Nights after walking in on his wife in this pic, and I now can’t not see it.

At least we’re getting some external help it seems. I still think player frustration comes from a complete vacuum of leadership from the coach.

Like, he put a headset on in the 4th quarter with 10 minutes left: “oh fcuk well I guess we could try a different strategy”.

Next minute he backs over JHF in the presser as one of the largest contributing factors for the loss, because he knows THAT was on the big screen.

I hope internally they start to turn on him too.

Tbh, I think they have already turned on Ken. I remember after the showdown, Zak Butters did an interview with The Advertiser, and if memory serves me right, he put Ken under the bus, criticising the gameplan. Now I think the number of players he’s lost has grown in the last couple of weeks. He's gone if we lose to Richmond, and I think he’s done.
 
After 12 years the players don't know each other games that well? Really?? Tredders brought this up a month or two ago when he said as a forward line they used to know exactly where player x was gonna put it, what leg player y would kick from etc etc.

Def first time in the time Kens been here that there seems real confusion within the playing group and perhaps some dissent.

Happened to hear F Evans on AA last night and it was absolute alarm bells.

"What have you identified from the GC game and worked on?"

"Well, errr, today was a bit of a light day......"

"Richmond coming up, Dustys back, have you looked at them, and have you got a plan for him?

"Well, errr, havent done much, today was a light day etc etc etc"

Three straight answers were basically "nah, we've done **** all".

What the **** ARE they doing.

So... getting bullied by GC wasn't a bring your mouthguards to training session. Maybe they could at least learn which foot their teammate kicks with?

Surely Carr's stocks are plummeting by the day just from association

Thinking how to spin the story of turfing Butters, a la Wingard 5 years back

To me it's code for, "We're so sick of this coach!!!"

Thing is, it's the most obvious alarm bells with all of us long suffering supporters, but no one in the media ever bats an eyelid.

Wish King would start calling stuff like this out as well.

It's real coach killer material.

Leadership isn't a straight forward thing as in we just need the strongest personality barking orders, Butters has completely got the courageous follow me into the trenches by example bit covered. Rozee was the presentable lovely boy option in my view that doesn't work at Port Adelaide, but typical of the current regime.

It's actually quite amazing how much we've really taken a step back in the last 4-5 years and become a really closed and secretive organisation. This is all just controlling the media. Don't give them anything. Then if there's actually some negativity like Warren lets try and white ant him out.

It feels like we've become everything we despised in the Crows.

After the open boasting of the love and cuddles session following the Brisbane smashing, this doesn’t surprise.

It didn't come across as some covert directive not to give away any valuable IP.

It sounded a lot more like a clueless admission that we dont have any.
