As Chewy has said, no decision has been made and discussions are ongoing. That may or may not result in Hinkley being removed as coach.
Everyone needs to take a step or ten back from the ledge. It either will or won't happen and you have no control over it. If you voted for Tredrea at the board election then you have a voice in the room. In the meantime just enjoy life rather than obsessing over some hillbilly.
One other fact that people are forgetting, when did the club come out publicly and say their is a succession plan in place for Josh Carr??PLAYERCARDSTARTJosh Carr

So if there is no succession plan, don't you think they are leaving the decision a bit late.
Also if there is a decision pending, don't you think it needs to be done before the trade period, players would surely want to know who the head coach is before making a decision to come to Port.
Ken has the upper hand because he's already there, with a contract for 2025.
The only positive thing I see is why would he and the club put themselves in a position of immense pressure from media and fans if we have a shocker next year, nothing to gain there.
I have no idea what's going on behind closed doors but what I have stated here is just the obvious and common sense imo.
Which is why we can't ease the pressure on these morons - if the status quo remains, nought from twelve will become nought from twenty: despite what Koch says.One flag in five GFs and Sydney are under the pump…are the players not tough enough, is the highly respected coach good but not good enough, is the culture not capable of winning when the pressure on.
Port - nought from twelve, no GFs, consistently fragile in finals and Koch says “nearly there…”
Sure, like I said I'm not gonna reveal much on here because I don't want people to hang their hopes on it.
But what I'll say is it's naive to think Tredders wouldn't have had an impact if Ken doesn't get a contract extension next year. Because when Tredders wasnt there, we were dumb enough to offer extensions in 2020 and 2023.
"Hinkley is just seeing his contract out", don't for a second believe that he will walk away. This is a money grabbing exercise for him and if you really think about it, you'll see why CD stayed this year. There will be a group of people that want Ken extended next year but this time, they'll have opposition.
No decision will be made. They don't need to 'make a decision'. He's contracted. There's not gonna be an announcement that he'll be here next year. He just will.
You can't genuinely think there's still a chance he gets sacked before next season can you?
A decision hasn't been made yet. A lot of people in here have jumped to their own conclusions without any solid facts. The undisputed fact is that Chewy316 knows more info on here about the club than anyone of us, but in saying that, and as I’ve mentioned in an earlier post, we must fight as one; we’ve lost the battles, but we can’t and won’t lose the war with the hierarchy.
Are you expecting a decision about Ken's 2025 prior to pre-season?
Unfortunately at this time... I have nothing worth saying.My goodness you have all been busy today.
I spent the day working and then enjoying watching my other team who sacked their coach (twice in less than 12 months) win 2 games in a row with shock horror a completely different game plan. Amazing what can be achieved when a club doesn’t accept mediocrity.
Oh and #s#sackhinkley
dirty2 you will need to take my position in this thread as I needed to finish out my semester and stop procrastinating.
Unfortunately at this time... I have nothing worth saying.
Club is shit. Hinkley is shit. Koch is shit... Everyone is shit... And it hurts me to much.
Well.. I guess I did ^^^ have something to say.
But I'm to hurt. More then I should be.
Hopefully watching arsenal in a couple of hour's makes me
I love how the fans (us) are always proven right. Everyone hated the dual captains, and we were right. Everyone wanted Ken gone last year (and years before that); we were right, they were wrong. We all hated the Esava and Soldo deals, the absolute poverty coaching signings of Hartlett and Lobbe, etc. And look at our SANFL team under Hartlett.We are not a club we are a cult

There's more chance of the Redbacks winning back to back Sheffield Shields, than there is of Hinkley coaching us to a flag.Think about it this way... there is a higher chance Ken is gone before next season than there is of him coaching us to a flag
What’s the best material and method to make banners for the game? I’d like to have a few different ones ready to go for the season so I figure I’m best off asking the man behind the best banner so far.A coach isn't getting sacked after the trade period, it's done. Chewy's sources who I'm sure believed they were going to meet to discuss the coaching situation have been hoodwinked into playing the waiting game but the other side of the debate who never intended to even entertain any discussion on the coach.
At best we'd see a succession plan but Ken has made it abundantly clear he won't agree to that, so that's not happening either.
And, if we win a few games in a row, the likes of Cornes and Caro will push for an extension. The only way we fight that is by making games as toxic as.possible. Sack Hinkley banners everywhere.
I have a massive problem with the "he wins a game so he continues". At some stage we have to sit down and say is he the best person moving forward and that answer is always No.He actually did.
According to him, if we lost the next game after the Brisbane booing game, it was done.
Then we beat the Saints and it eventually became a 50/50m proposition. Basically a guess.
To be fair they aren't going to say much else as much as we'd love to hear "dirty old Stinkley failed us again, we try to sack him but the ****er always is in contract when we are going shit"They'd extend him today if they thought they could get away with it. They're shameless. Keep your mates in a job as long as possible. It's absolutely disgraceful.
