Well every Club's president would be the final signatory to getting something of this nature done. And the majority of the Club Presidents are not footy people. This isn't a problem with Port or Koch at all, it's just a procedural thing.
I'm sure David could if he absolutely wanted to.
I also think he was going to go that route, he would have intervened privately already. To my knowledge, that hasn't happened, as the football grown ups are working through things in the coming days.
Coming weeks?
Gbear just text me when this is done, thumbs getting sore refreshing.

Hard to sack someone during grand final week to take the spotlight off the big game. AFL hates that. Most likely to occur Monday or Tuesday of next week if they end up sacking him imo.
Of course, I could be completely wrong on that and by Friday he's gone, I just doubt that will be the case.

Very much my thoughts. I'll take whatever we can get at this point, but it won't half as satisfying.

Nah you’re all good Chewy, saw “weeks” and immediately thought at least 2 weeks away.
No doubt gbear will be right onto me once you confirm that it’s happening.

Rucci's Monday Review: The next step forward
Port Adelaide leaves the AFL finals stage with one nagging question - what will it take to advance from the preliminary finals? The answer is very much within ... and has been for a long time.
The secret to success is stability, and by gum, haven't we had a lot of both.

So just to summise Chewy, and I appreciate you're getting bombarded here, your source(s) has discussions regarding Hinkleys future happening now, and theres a pretty high chance this all ends?
I'd assume both parties would want the optics of a mutual parting of ways with Ken perhaps citing his fatigue and mental health and the club respecting that and wanting to move in a new direction. If that's the case, would it result in a full payout of his last year? Or would there be maybe a negotiated settlement?

In that context, "Take the Corridor" sounds like a euphemism.
"Invite the Heat. Take the Corridor."

Look at the word hypocrite in the Oxford dictionary - there's a picture of Kane Cornes.
Sack Hinkley day. Can end up being a party day every year like independence day in America.
They could even make a movie one day... Instead of aliens attacking earth it could be the Hinkley family trying to destroy Alberton
Tredders can end up being the hero in the movie

There were discussions held over the weekend, and I'm led to believe those discussions will continue over the coming days.
The optics are a massive part of it all. Everyone deserves to enter and exit the Club with dignity.
As for the payout, I suspect Ken is going to want a full payout irrespective of how the "sacking" is framed. But I could be wrong. Wouldn't be surprised if the Club propose a payout of his final year to be paid over 3 years with increases each year to account for inflation. This would reduce the impact on the footy department expenditure.
Higher than that.

I just knew Rooches article would all boil down to lack of list and getting behind Ken, "barbarians at the gates"
Not one mention of the tired and predictable game-plan.
He's a cancer to this joint.
How many more years should we "get behind Ken" Rooch?
2027? 2029? 2032?

The trouble is they don't consistently turn up with effort! Why not?Robbie Gray probably thought the same thing. You only get a certain number of chances to reach a grand final - eventually the well becomes as dry as a Pommy's bath towel.

Surely Ken is keen to walk if he's in line for a full payout.
He gets paid and doesn't have to do anything, and gets to pretend to leave on his own terms. Chances are he gets a much more stressful sacking if he stays into next year, for the same pay.
