Certified Legendary Thread Sack Hinkley 12 - Finals Are Scary

[AdamMarrett]

The clues are there. Hinkley will coach next year and Carr will take over in 2026. Seems obvious to me and really it's not worth bothering with this topic anymore during preliminary final week.

Bigger fish to fry rather than beating a dead horse all week.

I wonder whether with CD probably leaving and Ken’s behaviour, has he decided he might be walking regardless of what happens?

I mean Koch can say what he wants if he knows that’s what is on the cards.

Maybe Ken has just decided he’s done?

Left field thought.

Obvious... for the 3rd year in a row.

CDs replacement will have to be someone who has already "learnt about Port Adelaide".

Cassisi?
Jonas?

DO NOT WANT.

DO NOT WANT.

We don't want Kock or Hinkley either but...........

 

[Harlott]

Noticed two or three new articles about Ken saving Port, the basket case.

100% he’s here next year.

 

[PowerLil]

Ken will be healing the sick soon.

Schofield

 

[longdonkey]

Schofield

that would be fun. Except Hinkley would resign before he was able to extract revenge.

 

[Willsy10]

Jonas, cassisi and current afl assistant coach Schofield touted as CD’s replacement? wtf.

This thread has seriously jumped the shark.

Maybe just wait and see what happens over the next couple of weeks with Hinkley, CD and co. I feel like it is strange this thread never sleeps even in prelim week, when there are clearly more important issues to discuss.

All I care about is winning the flag right now. All this other stuff will be a talking point after the season is over.

I would suggest avoiding this thread maybe.

Hopefully he can heal Koch then

Touted by whom?

Fiction writers? Bullshit artists?

The West Coast coaching search has been narrowed to four candidates.Andrew McQualter, Steven King, Brett Montgomery and Hayden Skipworth are the quartet of contenders left in the race for the Eagles’ top job. King and McQualter seen as the frontrunners of that four.

It’s understood Port Adelaide coach Ken Hinkley was never approached and regardless, has never had any desire to move to Perth.

Just give up, our club is run by a load of selfish egotistical arse wipes.

Hinkley would love Perth. There's probably extra three months per year he can get around in Stubbies and thongs.

 

[finbarr]

If the Swans win this Friday night Ken Hinkley will be entering his 13th season as a senior coach without even a grand final appearance to his name. I simply cannot even imagine that happening anywhere else on planet earth in any sport at any other club. Amazing.

Business world never sleeps, one eye on field, the other scanning and scouting.

Do you think the recruiters only start looking at kids after Round 23 or Finals campaign?

What else is there to talk about, we only have 4 blokes left fit to come in for selection.

 

[Flash of power]

THis is not the time to go with this narrative. Hinkley is here to stay for now, like it or loathe it. There is a prelim to win, and supporters supporting would be awesome right now. Leave your gripes for after the next loss.

Whatever is said in this thread will. i'm pretty sure, have zero impact on Friday's result.

This is a "Sack Hinkley" thread. It is what people will talk about here.

 

[SC_Power]

Looked at our W/L record excluding the close 0-12 pt games (which there is a degree of luck).

Excl finals
2024 16-7 less 6-1 = 10-6
2023 17-6 less 6-1 = 11-5
2022 10-12 less 2-7 = 8-5
2021 17-5 less 5-0 = 12-5
2020 14-3 less 2-0 = 12-3
2019 11-11 less 1-2 = 10-9
2018 12-10 less 3-4 = 9-6
2017 14-8 less 1-2 = 13-6
2016 10-12 less 0-3 = 10-9
2015 12-10 less 3-5 = 9-5
2014 14-8 less 2-5 = 12-3
2013 12-10 less 5-3 = 7-7

Taking out the close games,
2014 the high point, 2020 being the Covid year.
And every other year is almost a rinse and repeat (good but not great)

We want to win as a club, however….

If we lose another PF, how much longer…….?

I say go as hard on Hinkley as possible he needs to be pissed off to have a pulse.

 

[Chewy316]

I'm getting to the stage where I wouldn't be surprised if they give him another 1 year extension because he couldn't possibly coach out the final year of his contract, the pressure wouldn't be fair.

How have you possibly reached such a crazy conclusion?

If they keep him for 2025, he will coach in his final contract year just as he did in 2020 and 2023. There is literally nothing other than pure conjecture on anyone's behalf to suggest otherwise.

I actually think the most likely option if they keep him for 2025 is to announce a succession plan this off-season to have Ken coach 2025 with Carr set for 2026. But again, that's just conjecture on my behalf at this point.

Nearly impossible to predict how things are going to move forward from here until we have the data point that is Friday night locked in to the equation.
