Certified Legendary Thread Sack Hinkley 12 - Finals Are Scary

[gbear]

As long as said broom sweeps Hinkley out the door.

Hopefully on Monday!

 

[gbear]

Looks like Port are making all these announcements in the lead up to sacking Ken early next week.

 

[Thunderer]

At this point something like this would even suffice:

Believe me, you don't want me in a mankini. Even if it's for a good cause such as:

SACK HINKLEY!!!!

 

[BornPort]

This guy will dodge the broom. He always does.

 

[Contested Marx]

I wish we had a Sack Kelly thread so someone we called for to get sacked, is actually sacked. We are yet to see anyone who is the first port of call for sacking, to get sacked. It's always the ****ing lackies.

I'll start the Sack Hartlett thread if you do Chadbro

 

[rogerjames]

Yeah sorry, Jason, Conner, Zac, Ollie, Aliir, Mitch, Riolie, Jordan, Burgoyne, Bergs, just to mention a hand full, you're shit players our list is not good enough. That must make the players feel good about themselves.

The media are a total disgrace and either do not do their homework or they are on the take from the AFL.

It's both actually

Wonder how many days iteration 12 will last?

We're averaging around 300 posts a day since September 6 - when/if news of Hinkley's departure breaks, we'll be onto segment 13 before you can say, "Sack Hinkley."

 

[dirty2]

The spud knew eventually that he would be sacked one day!

Hinkley is All about the $ not the club.

 

[SureBuddy]

It's a worry when they start moving or not renewing assistants around Hinkley.

They have done this before, it's not Ken it's the people around him.

I'm still in the believe it when I see camp as far as Hinkley's demise goes.

Or they are making changes for Carr's new team.

 

[Cheesey Mac]

You’re sounding like a Crows supporter… ‘we should get Luko back’ …. Just because…

He’s probably happy and all in for Carlton. Stevie Dew maybe…. Hard thing is they are probably also enjoying not being in Adelaide, it’s a hard sell to get people here.

I’m sure if they announce Carr and sack Hinkley half of this stuff will happen…

They just need to throw Hinkley out and the whole club can move forward.

Just on Stuey Dew, because I've seen him mentioned a few times, I'm pretty sure his wife works on TV or radio up in SE Queensland and they're fairly settled up there. I'm sure she could get a job down here if they decided to move but I'd be surprised if he comes back to Adelaide any time soon.

 

[rogerjames]

Re: the alienation of members, you'd think the club would want to draw on such a passionate supporter base that deeply cares. Rather than label them white noise, etc. Hopefully another change in attitude that comes with new admin.

Those that aren't much chop always surround themselves with sycophants

 

[edgie]

Kane won't do that once Ken is gone. Kane looks after Kane & Chad.

Kane looks after his sources. There's always been talk that the brothers aren't close. I believe Ken would be a bigger source than Chad, or Graham is a source in between Chad and Kane.

 

[philreich]

Maybe this is what Ken means by it’s a whole club thing. They’re gonna get rid of everyone and he’ll be the right man standing.

No, he's only the right man to sack.

Hinkley is All about the $ not the club.

There's legit no other reason he was the only coach in covid to negotiate his way out of the six month payout.

Yep feels like the same as the last decade.

 

[Chewy316]

Not even Ken.

I will only post that Ken has been sacked if he has been notified by the Club and the media haven't already broken the news.

Stuff is happening in the background though and I would expect things to accelerate over the weekend, particularly as the Board (and thus a large chunk of the footy committee) have some chairman's lunch/dinners tomorrow, where dare I say it wouldn't surprise me to hear Ken's future brought up in an informal setting.

 

[gbear]

Hinkley is All about the $ not the club.

He treats the club like an ATM, it is ****ing disgusting.

 

[Us against the rest]

Can just imagine the clubs social media team reporting back to Richo, hey those white noise keyboard worriors think that ken's getting the boot, wow they are going to be upset when he turns up for round one next year, with an extension if he makes another prelim.

 

[gbear]

It might, but the wheels are definitely turning, and those who have stood steadfast with Hinkley are finally starting to change their loyalties. Hinkley now knows he isn't going to survive, and it is all about optics over the next week. Essentially his exit is now being staged and managed to the nth degree.

It would be so us to clean house and leave the turd in the punchbowl lol

Finals may be scary but waiting on this decision is downright terrifying

I fear for the safety of Alberton Oval if Hinkley gets another extension......
