Certified Legendary Thread Sack Hinkley 12 - Finals Are Scary

[Launchpad McQuack]

IChewy, is it the actual Board or the Football Committee you are referring to?

Football committee.

KG with his finger on the pulse this morning. “Ken had to make do with injuries, he couldn’t select Anderson” Cue KG and Cornes then trying to work out who Anderson is before realising they meant Marshall. These same experts now telling us why Ken has done a wonderful job.

 

[PA88]

He won’t have the “I’m contracted’ next year. He won’t see out the year.

I'm sick of this hope. The team is likely to be in the eight all year. He won't be sacked in those circumstances. Got to go now. It's got to get ugly now.

 

[Sheeds]

Now it is Tredrea’s fault apparently. I give up with this club.

 

[Grave Danger]

You'd throw this one out, surely?

Who said that? Graham Cornes I suppose. Fed by Chad.

Oh those two old guys on the Muppets

I'm probably taking this completely out of context, but I was encouraged by 5 words in his presser, "MAYBE I SHOULDN'T BE HERE."

It's hope that kills you.

Whatever it's worth I did like Tredreas comments on AA last night before the game, he repeatedly said "there's no excuses"

He gets it, a very lone wolf though by the looks.

Chewy is pretty much spot on, there is division at your club and even though she is disliked by many this is something caroline wilson has been saying for a while.
This wasn't the case this time last year, rest assured even though it doesn't seem like ken will walk he knows he won't have a contract beyond 2025 he his manager and his family will be talking over the next few days whether doing a Graham Arnold might be best for all scenario believe me. Keep up the rage stickers and all. You have hope!

Davies is a crude operator I'll give him that, oversees an ultimately failed football dept for however many years, backs in a failed coach however many times then flys the coop before things turn sour under his watch.

The Frank Grimes/Homer Simpson gag is just so apt to this whole situation.

Just depressingly accurate.

One of the funniest bits is just how simple he is. His press conferences are just a jumble of "footyisms"... "the reality is this..." "they were stronger and cleaner at the contest".... etc etc

Do you ever hear him provide any sort of analysis like a Chris Scott or Longmire does?

Then, last night he goes on with it not being about the one person. This comes out when we lose or shit goes bad (Geelong, last night), but he carries on like a plonka (last week, after showdowns, crying on camera after the saints win) when we win - making it all about him. Then, when we inevitably go out in finals, he gets off scott free and we wont hear from him until pre season the next year..... it’s a shambles.

That’s why I love the media comparisons of Hinkley to Scott

One is a masterful tactician, the other is a bumbling fool

What a guy.

 

[Duck Farmer]

Did enjoy the one journo’s question who pointed out he (Ken) was the common link across all four prelim finals losses.

Did he throw Boak under the bus in response?

Thing is he also knows they’ve had long enough. At least he’s doing something.

Ken won’t leave on his own accord, give up 800k?

 

[all seeing eye]

How often does going into the new season with a dead coach workout well. Every week the media will be asking the question until Koch panics again.

 

[King_Tredrea]

Just clear everyone out Sans JHF please

 

[drcollossimo]

Discussions between people with a vote on Ken were briefly had last night.

No meeting currently set but the expectation is that one will happen next week.

This is very much a divided group.

We won 2 quarters of footy in 3 finals how can it be that divided ?!

How can they read these stats and come to ANY other conclusion ?!

 

[Lefti93]

Just what the absolute **** is happening at that club. The divide between the decision makers, what are the people siding with Ken's reasons for keeping him? The place is an absolute shitshow. Close the ****en doors man, lock it up.

 

[Enchilada]

Just clear everyone out Sans JHF please

Build a team around JHF, Butters and Georgiadies.

Thing is if Davies is off to Collingwood, who are they going to attract to replace him with a rusted on Hinkley in his 13th season?

Another internal promotion I guess. Yippee

 

[dirty2]

Doing a bit of weeding... It helps picturing Koch and Hinkley's heads on the weeds... And pulling them out... Satisfying.

Take that Hinkley... Your a shit coach...

**** off back to Sydney Koch ya w***er....

 

[Madas]

Was really hoping for a Port win to see how this thread played out

Soon as I saw Dixon selected I knew it wasn’t going to happen

PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD SEND HINKLEY TO WEST COAST !

I’ll buy a Port membership if you do

Butters probably has a footy admin type he is close to back from his Auskick days.
