Certified Legendary Thread Sack Hinkley 12 - Finals Are Scary

[KenGaveUsWhatHeDeserved]

Unless you were planning to invest in baldness, rainbows, pyramid schemes, or Eddie McGuire, there isn't much point.

sounds like those payback appointments by the AFL

"here, you can go on the port Adelaide board. you dont have to do s
jack, care about the club and if it goes to shit no one will know. just don't support aspirational decisions that cost the club money and anywhere above 10th will keep the locals happy"

let me guess - we have a few DEI boxes ticked for the AFL on our board?

Hinkley on 3aw now. He is full of cliches and sh*t.

I’m staggered that anyone would be listening to him.

 

[Janey]

A golden handshake for our malignant tumour of a coach.

They should take him out behind Allan Scott Power Headquarters like one of Kenny's greyhounds.

I really don’t give a toss how it happens, as long as it happens soon.

"The players love Kenny"

Vomit worthy.

NTUA is a reasonable theme, and idea..the crowd and scarves

The problem is its a tempo downer
it doesn't uplift, inspire, motivate or lift our players adrenalin

Its a massive mood killer. Slow, boring, sheeit a peak Ron Jeremy full of Viagra would go soft listening to it.

we need to replace it, or rework it to a faster beat

I hate the song tbh.

Id love to see players choose their own goal songs like Brissie.

 

[Marmozet]

I wonder how many 'how we won the grand final' doccos port film every year but have to scrap.

I still remember that Inside Port Adelaide documentary about our 2015 season.

Completely reeked of "we thought we'd win the premiership this year but then we had to try and turn it into something else!"

 

[JHF1870]

I can't believe what he said

HAvent heard it but likely

Its a brutal game
Sydney are a bloody good side
Weve gotta get tougher at the contest

He is a great salesman

 

[Loyal2Port]

Every time I hear that they love Ken, what they actually mean is that we love him as our coach but they don't respect him / fear him and he doesn't get the best out of them.

Seriously Connor, who cares? If there are journalists with any sort of integrity reading this, please ask Connor "Of what relevance is that to the supporters?"
Or
"You've just been comprehensively beaten in a preliminary final. Of what relevance is you love the coach?"

I can’t even look anymore. The number of people swaying from side-to-side is a blue chip cringe factory.

What would you like him to say?

 

[Jojay]

SEN Crunch Time panel broadly in agreement that we’re in the endgame. Effectively, we either announce the succession plan now or give Ken the golden handshake (which, as Derm suggests, all coaches get these days)

Actually encouraging that Whateley says the club needs to act within the next 3 days ie announcing a succession plan or giving Hinkley a golden handshake. Even he knows the writing is on the wall.

Yes I don’t want a coach they love I want a complete and utter arseh*le.

I dont do the whole scarfe thing. I just wanna watch the game.

 

[Winganeen]

A lot less media bites back in the day but I don't recall players talking about a "love" of Jack.

It was more like "you know where you stand", "he'd make you feel 10ft tall", "he can be brutal" rather than "love".

 

[tribey]

What would you like him to say?

There has to be some sane middle ground where not everything is about that d¡ckhead and his ongoing employment.

Usually clubs whose identity becomes interchangeable with individuals — players, coaches — is a result of great success or legendary performance.

We’ve somehow become the Ken Hinkley Football Club on monotonous longevity and a severe Mandela Effect regarding the temporary nadir of 2010-12.

It’s insufferable.

 

[OxfordCambridge]

The problem is the board.

Sack this fool and move on quickly!

 

[Us against the rest]

What would you like him to say?

We are bitterly disappointed in our performance and we have let the club and our supporters down, we are going to do everything we can to turn things around next year.

That would at least be something relevant.

 

[PowerLil]

What would you like him to say?

When asked about the coach? How about " We're bitterly disappointed in our performance and how we represented our members and supporters. It's about them and our performance right now."

Then the players are truly the problem.

If you're not asking for change in the box after watching Robbie, Ebo, Humphrey, Schulz, Ryder etc have their careers ended without getting a look in at the big dance.

Years of continually being asked to follow a game plan which asks them to repeatedly bang their heads against brick walls until the wall collapses then they obviously don't care about being the best.

That or severe case of Stockholm syndrome.

Snap!

Hinkley still holds one of the most unwanted records any football coach could possibly own — the VFL/AFL record for most games coached at any club without progressing to a Grand Final.
