Certified Legendary Thread Sack Hinkley 12 - Finals Are Scary

[Thunderer]

When Ken says "just a bit of luck" he means it.

In Cahills language it means, stick your tackles, don't stop until you can't run any more, work and protect your team mates and most of all, the difference in winning ans losing is those one percenters. Remember you are better than your opponent.

Now that's a real Port Adelaide coach.

I just read that and ran through a wall.

Who next?

To stop this shocking exodus of players, I think we should Sack Hinkley.

 

[JakeNeadeFan]

Prospective players nominating the club suggests the coaching decisions has been made?

 

[PAFC66]

Dan Houston.

Ivan Soldo.

Who next?

To stop this shocking exodus of players, I think we should Sack Hinkley.

Houston is the only real loss this clubs had since Burgoyne

 

[PAFC Since 1870]

Sack donuts

 

[PAFC66]

Prospective players nominating the club suggests the coaching decisions has been made?

You'd think so..

 

[Chewy316]

Prospective players nominating the club suggests the coaching decisions has been made?

Not at all.

 

[PowerLil]

Not at all.

Can they sack him already ffs?

 

[KrispyKremeMullanikka]

Prospective players nominating the club suggests the coaching decisions has been made?

If anything the opposite

 

[dirty2]

Can they sack him already ffs?

Yeah I want to know if I'm happy or angry...

Has David Koch seen this data?

Jordan Hinkley is our football data analyst. I imagine he left this, and other similarly ugly statistics, out of his weekly report.

 

[EskimoPAFC]

Maybe we are recruiting Luko for him to sack Hinkley?

 

[Steve Dore]

Has David Koch seen this data?

David Koch has definitely seen that data. The problem is that he is totally clueless in regards to football matters and therefore wasn't able to infer any useful information from that data.

Cassisi and Hinkley's mate Chris Davies would have told Koch that the data meant that Hinkley would eventually turn that trend around.

 

[philreich]

I genuinely don't think he'll get another extension. If he coaches on into 2025 it will be his final year. And that's why this whole circus is so ludicrous. Why waste another year with this failure pulling the strings when you could be allowing the next coach to get to work right now and put his own stamp on things? It's friggin nuts!

And also enable Port fans to start enjoying their footy again. My love for Port is dead right now, and I need to see change, just to have my engagement with the club return to life support status.

 

[Interstater]

The cult of Ken.

1. Unreasonable fear about the outside world.

• Who else we gonna get?

2. No legitimate reason to leave.

• Judge me by... don't judge me by ...
• The players love me

3. Followers feel like they can never be good enough.

• Robbo: The list has holes in it

4. The group/leader is always right.
....

 

[philreich]

I'll choose my words carefully as I'm aware I'm a guest here.

There is an argument that could be made that your list isn't the best in the comp, nor was it in any of the past seasons were discussing.
The flip side is if you DO rate it as the best then you need to give Ken massive props for list management.

Personally (and being fully aware you beat us twice this year) I think you have a few areas of list weakness that the top teams can exploit.

After 12 failed years, we owe Hinkley NOTHING!!!

The ultimate troll would be the club headlining "Hinkleys departure" and revealing it's his son in small print

Cassisi and Hinkley's mate Chris Davies would have told Koch that the data meant that Hinkley would eventually turn that trend around.

This 'he doesn’t know anything about football' excuse is such a cop-out.

He's been running a football club for over a decade, that's more than enough time to learn.

Perhaps he should take some time to 'learn about the club'?

Farken.

Nah, we've actually been good at turning the list over in place. We've got a strong, really strong base. You don't need to rebuild with JHF, Butters, Adopted Son #1, drue, sweet and visitini as you're midfield.

A new coach will give some players a go as well that are sitting there, Sinn looks ready now to jump in for Houston, Meads coming on, if Narkle had played a whole season he'd probably be a nice utility across half forward by now thought he showed good stuff in limited opportunities, etc etc. Marshall could sure as shit do with a new script.

Agree with most of that besides Narkle.
He's not AFL quality

 

[Peninsula Boy]

Yeah, here come the rooster, yeah!!!

I think I remember the next line and I don't like it at all.

 

[StrappingTape]

No but compared to who he replaced, if we'd given him a shot earlier in the year the output would have been better by the finals. It's just things like that, nothing is going to change until we make change.

 

[philreich]

Is he sacked yet FFS !!!

HOW ARE WE ALL STILL WAITING FOR THIS

There's got to be something greasy going on for hinkey to still be here its been 12 years the trophy cabinet is full of spider webbs f*#k sake cut the cord Koch you peasant

I heard there was a dust storm over Alberton the other day - apparently someone left the Port trophy cabinet open.........

 

[DaTBird187]

I am a long-time reader, particularly of this thread (thanks for the laughs btw). I think it's only fitting that my first post is:

Sack Hinkley.
