Seems unlikely to me

Begs the question of why he’d go on radio 24 hours earlier with his big show of defiance then.Smithers texted Dwayne just then on SEN, says Hinkley to announce leaving at tonight's BnF due to family issues.
I hope Smithers is correct.
Yes, and you should post a minute-by-minute summary here.Oh... Does that mean I have to watch the b and f?
My thoughts exactly.Goes on 5aa being giddy to be here next year and then announcing he is leaving a day later?
Seems unlikely to me
So, thread 14 will be reached in a new record time then?Yes, and you should post a minute-by-minute summary here.
If I have to watch it... Im getting plastered...Yes, and you should post a minute-by-minute summary here.
And wouldn’t you believe how excited I am about that. I’m gonna be rocking different signs related to wanting him gone for every game in Melbourne. 3 hour drive each way just to shit on Hinkley and I couldn’t be more excited.Hinkley walking is because he knows how bad it will be next year if he stays
Just wait till Hinkley realises Gary Rohan is out of contract.
Not unlikely. It seems like total BS.Goes on 5aa being giddy to be here next year and then announcing he is leaving a day later?

Some people really do have short and selective memories...Exactly. Leadership has always been the problem. Piss weak administration and diabolical coaching. All the problems being complained about here were all evident in the Williams years and a lot of the posters here suffer from short or selective memories it seems. Many were baying for Williams' blood towards the end but have now done some incredible 180 degree turn and view him as some kind of deity on the basis of the simple fact he finally fluked a premiership against a battered and sore opposition that had already bagged a threepeat and more than likely didnt have the hunger anyway. The arguments for getting rid of Hinkley are salient and valid but come on- at least have some objectivity. The main problem is that in the AFL world Port' s hisory and tradition count for nought in the eyes of the games custodians. They have constructed a homogenous competition full of franchises and dictate terms to keep it that way. They dont care about the diehard supporters.
They did the same to me even though I told them in an email at the end of 2022 that I am never coming back until Hinkley, Koch and Richardson are all gone.It is disgusting. I have just been told that they "forgot" to remove me even after I had received email confirmation. This club is seriously run by clowns that try to boost memberships in any manner.

I'm sure they can find him a job for him somewhere... Jordan probably needs an assistant.Given they’re related, I’m guessing he’s already wearing a club polo and collecting a wage in some capacity.
We should nickname her "Citibank" - "The Citi never sleeps!"gBear - 462 do you ever sleep?
He doesn't want a golden handshake,he's entitled to what's owed anyway,he wants to coach until he gets a Premiership hahaha which is neverNot without a golden handshake

Yes. I too typed a 300 or so word rant in the "other comments" box regarding sub par on-field performance, lack of courage by a risk averse board, etc.There was an ok amount of references to the admin and team performance in there are least. Not heaps but at least the whole thing wasn't "how much do you heart emoji Coles grocery dash see you at the footy"?
I used the any other comments box to let fly knowing full well (and I acknowledged this in there) that this is just going back to some poor membership staff and probably won't go anywhere. But it made me feel temporarily better at least.
Anyway Sack Hinkley
The one that always gets me is the ‘on a scale of 1-7 are these club sponsors a good brand fit?’ section.
A university, tyres, a car manufacturer and an insurance company.
Is their money good? Yes? Who cares?
If the Board were genuinely undecided about Hinkley's future and wanted to frame his exist as a mutual decision and Ken walking, maybe him going on the radio with the "I deserve another go" could be perceived as him trying to bully the Board into allowing him to stay....As much as I'd like to believe a Simpson's character's tip to AM radio, only yesterday Ken said "I ain't leaving, youse ain't make me, gonna have another crack at the $800,000," or something to that effect.
He's not walking a day later.
