Certified Legendary Thread Sack Hinkley 12 - Finals Are Scary

[rogerjames]

Start of 2023: Best list I’ve ever had.

End of 2023: Fell agreed by everyone, Ken included, that list shorcomings⁰78 have been addressed in the trade period with two defenders and two rucks.

End

Honestly, I’ve been in toxic abusive relationships that e enjoyable than supporting this club at the moment.

It has a ery destructive hip with a decent proportion of the supporter base.000

Why the hell does Collingwood want Davies if our list is so poor?

Just take him, no questions asked

 

[MitchIn3D]

The List is good. Don’t get sucked into the quagmire. They’re trying to distract you from the real issues.

Tactics. Focus on gameplan. Focus on Hinkley.

The flames are licking at his boots and he’s not happy about it.

Don’t lose focus.

Sack Hinkley.

Ken taking a break during the exit interviews and trade period now is something

 

[PepeSilvia]

The big question mark now, with Ken on the way out the door, is what happens with Jordan Hinkley.

Don't know if we can afford to let him go. Reckon he's been absolutely pivotal to our success.

With Chris Davies also leaving, wonder if Jordy could come in as GM of Football to oversee Josh Carr

Just my opinion, cheers.

Because ken makes it all about Ken. From the very first minute he walked in the doors at Alberton and declared "I'm not the last man standing. I'm the right man standing". Look at me, I'm Ken Hinkley.

You & I really hate him. We see him so similarly & always have.

 

[blackdiamond]

So it seems the club is setting up a soft exit for Ken, which is fine by me. I take no satisfaction out of a humiliating sacking. I just want the club to move on professionally and refocus quickly to get the right personal in place before preseason.

How soft?

Hinkley about to take an extended break, takes 6 weeks off. Yeah, nah, this ain’t for me anymore kind of soft exit?

Tired... But would still be happy with a sacking while I sleep.

Sack Hinkley.

Absolutely.
this narrative kicked off after the Lions game, when Ken and CD both started with the excuse that the list is not good enough. The pro ken, sorry "kenny" media have run with it because they are out of any kind of objective, meaningful data that supports ken.

Leigh Matthews nailed it tho.
"I've got to say, I don't think it's healthy for a coach to say 'I don't think the team is good enough',"..."Saying you're not good enough are bad words to pop out, it sends a bad message to your players."

Low and behold, the group finish 2nd...but it all turns to shit when the pressure amps up. Game plan? Lack of beleif? Both?

At the bare minimum, it would be great if the leaders at the club could (privately and publically) install genuine confidence in the ability of the playing group, that they are 100% good enough to win the flag. And...activity dispute any media who say otherwise.

 

[philreich]

I really dislike the 'Ken can't play for them comments'.

There's a big difference to kicking to an open forward line vs kicking to a forward line with 36 players in it.

With Ken only being responsible for all the good stuff that happens at Alberton, how on earth will we survive after he leaves?

 

[EskimoPAFC]

The dream is we sack hinkley and next year we win the premiership. Would shut everyone up.

"This is Kenny's flag, he did the hard yards to build this side. Its such a shame the mean supporters have prevented him from having this moment with his team."

At this point we need to realise there is nothing, absolutely nothing that will shut the morons up. 12 years of failure and they're still trying to blame the list. You just have to ignore them.

 

[EskimoPAFC]

If I hear one more time from any of these muppets that our list is all of a sudden shithouse I’m going to spew. Stfu, no one was saying this prior to the Geelong final, no one.

Dwayne Russell’s backflip is probably the most obvious one to highlight. Literally went from tipping us to win the flag to saying our list sucks and we need to rebuild. In the space of one week. Why? Because Dixon is retiring? And we are losing Houston but should be well compensated for that. What other list changes are going to send us backwards? It’s bs.

Not to mention Becky was already suspended by the time Dwayne made the call we would win the GF

I watched AFL threeshitsty last night.

Gee we thought da list was ok but we found out in the prelim dat it wasn't and they need to bring in da missing piece of da puzzle.

How many times have we brought in players to fill alleged list gaps? And then it's done nothing or we've gotten worse..


It's almost like maybe it's not the list that's the problem

What’s this?

 

[PowerBaz]

The protection of Ken is astounding.

 

[Peninsula Boy]

Kane didn't have much integrity to begin with learning how to be in the media from his old man but showing a piece of footage which has absolutely no bearing on what he is saying to protect Ken over a non-issue is just the absolute gutter. Even Caro had a problem with it

 

[EskimoPAFC]

What an absolute legend Mitchell is - I don't know him at all lol

****ing hell I wish he was a Port man

I think they all know Kenny is cooked and out the door, surely it’s coming.

Also why would Mitchell know him… unless he went to the dog track.

 

[philreich]

Exactly 20 years since our last flag.

Fake Ken has 2 league premierships as a player.. Real Ken has Donuts

 

[dirty2]

The protection of Ken is astounding.

Just as long as they sack real ken not fake ken.
