The real catalyst for our resurgence in 2013 was mainly due to Phil Walsh, not this w***er.

Why do people keep talking about waiting for a 'decision' to be made? There's no 'decision'. He's contracted. They won't make an announcement. They'll just do nothing.

I have changed my mind again I think he gets sacked probably after the b & f. He was definately pitching. The way I see it is that the club have decided that's it for Ken but they have tried to convince him to step down so it's seen as his call. Look at how caro is pleading for him to do that to. She knows ken is gone but he is stubborn he is challenging the club to sack him.
Again today I heard that Carr spoke to Richards from Collingwood over the phone. Like he did with lukosious Shouldn't it be the head coach doing this?

It's absolutely incredible that there's such a complete vacuum of journalistic accountability to call kerny out on the absolute nonsense he talks, let alone point out the obvious horrible finals record, "mission accomplished" vibe after the semi, etc etc etc.
It's just absolutely crazy.

My guess is Stephen Rowe is not a fan of Ken in anyway, shape or form. I reckon he wouldn’t hold back on his true feelings after a few pints.
Timmy can’t stand him either, that’s clear as day.

The Caro thing is interesting. Does she have inside info that while not a done deal, Daddy's job is very much in jeopardy?
Does Ken (rightfully) think the club lacks any balls to follow through and actually sack him after years bowing to his demands?

Our next coach is going to get reamed with no lube by the paparazzi.

18:30 onwards
I’ve got one question that probably can’t be answered. Are these people in decision making positions wanting him out one of Koch or Richardson? Because if neither of those want him out then it’s going to take some sort of almighty shit hits the fan moment for a sacking. If Ken is sacked those two are gonna be the face of a sacking I would think and are gonna face some serious media scrutiny.

The jungle drums are beating at Alberton, and the natives are restless. Not satisfied with a top 2 home and away finish and a prelim final, the supporters wanted a scapegoat and they got one. Ken Hinkley, the man who came in with a whirlwind of energy and determination, and revilatised a club that was on the verge of folding after the calamitous seasons of 2011 and 2012.
With ruthless and some would say vindictive determination, the supporters hounded Kenny, plastering the streets and filling the airwaves with calls for his head. Untenable, was the call from Warren Tredrea, a man who is now a board member. Finally, they got their man. The mental toll on Ken and the rest of the Hinkley family must have been extreme. Tonight, on a special episode of AFL 360, we salute one of the great coaches of the modern era, Ken Hinkley.

Here's the way i see it. The club offered him a soft exit (ie, we'll make it look like you're going out on your terms). Hinkley has rejected this offer. If he'd accepted the offer, he'd have not gone on Adelaide radio and said the things he's said. Basically, he's thrown out the challenge....."i DARE you to sack me". He is aware of who he is dealing with, hence he knows they won't have the balls to do it.
Harsh on Burgess. We ran over teams all year.
Walsh didn't get on board until 2014 anyway. 2013 was all Burgess, 2014 was Burgess' fitness work combined with Walsh's tactical nous.
Y'all better get used to the idea Hinkley isn't stepping down. They are going to have to sack him, and in a very public way. Do you honestly believe they have the guts to do this? I don't.
Walsh wasn't here in 2013
So we have a guy who obtains information freely from the inner sanctum which he shares continuously here and if as we’re led to believe, the club is constantly checking in on these threads and he’s still receiving information.

We don't need to get revisionist about Ken's influence.
He was good in 2013 and 2014. Then things got old fast.

If tomorrow goes badly and I'm still surprisingly optimistic it won't, but if it does I think we need to get off Bigfooty for an hour and make Sack Hinkley trend on Twitter

I think your spot on either way dare I say it it's untenable for Ken now if that is the case. The club don't want him so they will have no choice but to sack him. They need to follow through with there wishes for the head coach role they will need to grow a set
