Certified Legendary Thread Sack Hinkley 12 - Finals Are Scary

[Steve Dore]

No no, I’m Italian. So my family owns a Italian Continental Shop

I'm not Italian but I know the difference between an Italian red and a liqueur.

I like a good Italian Sangiovese although Australia now produces some as good if not better.

My apologies for the reminder

Although I have a passing knowledge of South Oz tribalism the finer points do sometimes escape me.

It's like who would you rather win Collingwood or Essendon. The only right answer involves a helicopter gunship LOL.

I think you'll have a Happy Easter 2025

I don't quite think I'm ready to put "never tear us apart" back on the song list... But there's hope.

No Seaton

Trimmer Parade?

Sack Hinkley 13 - sack ken and random wine/grape talk.

 

[DaTBird187]

Not an easy time to be in the wine industry... Now with alot of frost damage I feel sorry for the families on the vineyards.

I've had friends lose 70-90%.

I've had friends lose 70-90%.

Hope they've got good insurance.

I'm trying to work out what I'm going to do with my time without reading hundreds of Sack Hinkley shitposts. Maybe I'll read War and Peace.

Yes, just driving around you can see quite alot of damage around the Barossa

Well obviously

No, I’m just saying what I know that we got available

I Joined bf in 2016 and it's been mostly negative (sack Hinkley ect) yes I've been a main culprit. But it's gonna be nice going a couple months without a #sa#sackthecoachthread

I've been here 13 long years....at least I usually disappear after the draft.

The only thing that could be better than Hinkley getting sacked is Hinkley getting sacked and Janus posting not knowing he's been sacked.

 

[Enviable Tradition]

Do you really, truly believe Ken Hinkley would walk away with anything short of a full years wages?

If it saves him some media pressure and embarrassment. Yes.

He wouldn't give up much though.

What if the Big Chew Chews source is just a club-sanctioned prank?

His sources are good.

He is. He is never abrasive or antagonistic. He feeds out enough line without getting too tangled. You're correct - he dribbles BS but never too much to get called out on, and just enough to water the rocks. He's not a clean performer. But he's not hosting his own show. His country boy dumbness gets him tagged as matey and down to earth but sees his BS not get too aggressively analysed. He's as dumb as a fox.

Not bad, agree with some of this

 

[Port01]

I don’t think Ken’s media pack would be putting out stories about how we are all pricks and he doesn’t need us and he might step away, if there was no chance he’d be sacked.

Which makes me feel almost as alive as those heady days in 2017 when he threatened to abandon us.

So, we expect him to be there next year, but he probably won’t be. Well that’s enlightening.

 

[Vagabond0]

Lol 12 years of evidence and Leigh doesn't believe Ken is unable to take Port to winning a premiership.

How many years experience does Leigh have again?

Meanwhile I know people watching the sport for the first time that watched both prelims and could easily tell Porta weren't within 5 goals of any of the other 3 sides that played.

Never once did they mention the players just ball movement going into our forward line.

To be fair they follow Serie A so they understand the concept of making runs to create space for others. Not running into others space etc.

 

[Janey]

What about one of these

The job's not finished yet. Apart from looking forward in reading posts of hope, we need to begin highlighting individuals that were part of this treasonous period of our history ... posts aiming squarely at these individuals to leave the club.

PS I borrowed the use of the word 'treasonous' from tribey. Such an applicable word to describe this period of setting the bar so low at our once famous club.

I’ve got absolutely no intel, but it just feels like it’s really happening this time.

Literally all roads are leading to it.

2 out of 3 finals were absolute dogshit, barely competitive. Just a shocking way to end our season, you couldn’t possibly watch that crap and think yeah he is our man. You just can’t. We were trash.

We probably don’t want a repeat of 2023, where his contract expiring is brought up weekly.

And clearly isn’t getting an extension, so you really got to wonder what is the point of him serving out his final year.

Prior to Fridays disgrace, I thought they’d let him coach out his final season but formalise the Carr succession to take place at the end of 2025. But it’s obvious now that if Carr is the path we are going down then it’s time to make that move now, give him some clear air rather than playing out a final year charade that’s highly unlikely to yield positive results.

I think it’s finally all she wrote for the cockroach.

I still don't feel it. Succession plan is all I can maybe see being announced. Pray I'm wrong. It's funny that we won 2/12 quarters and people from the club are saying they're proud. How on earth can you be proud of that?
