Koch on 7 just then:

" our pass mark this year was finals, and we exceeded it"

"Ken did this with the youngest side in the finals"

"Ken deserves credit for the list he has build"
Yeah its over. There is no no hope.

'if we just keep pumping money, time and energy into this, it'll work out eventually!'

He HAS to see how different getting pumped by 80 points in home finals is to Brisbane's run of close finals losses. SURELY

It's so funny that Ken in his interview talked about how addictive coaching an afl team is because our whole club is stuck in a giant gamblers sunk cost dilemma refusing to cut our losses
 
Nope, not unless there's a GWS home game against port. I might have to make an effort to get to Adelaide at some point and write a few sack Hinkleys though.
If GWS do host Port, can you hold one end of the huge SACK HINKLEY banner I will make? Seriously

So 8th in an 18-team competition is success? Can someone point me to where it says that in the Creed or our vision statement?
 
This seals it for me. He is going nowhere. This is all business as usual and the exact same bullshit we see year in year out.

If it quacks like a duck.

Nah this is a skewed way of telling the history. It's chalk and cheese between Mark's team's performances and the inaugural board compared with Hinkley and the current board.
Fair. Can appreciate this opinion and the thoughts of Tibbs and Valerian whose posts put across an alternative view without resorting to insults and personally disparaging remarks. I am in total concert with everyone here re the current board and the problem here is driven by the AFL and its' agenda to turn all clubs into little more than mercenary automatons. I was a big admirer of a few of your first admin such as Brian Cunningham and Bob Clayton but I thought Greg Boulton was piss weak. I'm not going to labour any further on the coaching debate, it' purely academic anyway and we will never have a true yardstick for comparison. My Geelong allegiances don't automatically make me a fan of Hinkley and in fact, watching the finals and how the side was prepared and coached showed he does not have the goods to take this group further. The list and the club deserves better than what he can offer.
 
Hinkley is a major player in fostering this environment. The Dixon's of this world openly speaking with disdain about the supporters. The constant "We do it for Kenny" is just garbage. Re Daniel Norton, I watched the interview with him about Hinkley. The things he was saying were quite unbelievable. "He's a great man because he asks how you're going every day." Isn't that just normal everyday human decency? I had to laugh at the end of it.
Pay me $800,000 & I'll satisfy everybody's ego. I'll let everyone know how important they are to the club. Lol, thats so easy. It's scary how ordinary these people are.
 
Can someone tell me why if Carr is eventually taking the head coaching role, why is he still our midfield coach and not the senior assistant coach?

Just seems a bit odd to me.
Because we did away with the senior assistant role some years ago (was Voss the last one?), presumably because Hinkley didn't want anyone that close.
