That is exactly why the whole scenario is a farce
Any decision shouldn't be based on a a flash in time but on a undeniable statistical body of evidence
If anybody at that club hasn’t realised that Hinkley doesn’t have what it takes to reliably win big games in general, let alone Prelims and Grand Finals, I don’t know what it would actually take to convince them.
There is now so much evidence that he’s long since taken Port Adelaide as far as he congenitally can, you’d have to have been living under a rock, or are perhaps acting on behalf of a hostile entity (Agent C?) to hold any lingering hopes he’s capable of anything but dismal failure.
For instance, I personally wouldn’t have deployed Travis Boak in defence, in his prime, in a Family Day kickabout with the Maggies.
He’s not exactly Speedy Gonzales these days, let alone a close-checking stopper or golden fisted aerialist, and his field kicking was never flash even at the best of times when only Lachie Neale stood in the way of him being considered the outstanding footballer in the competition.
And yet here’s our immortal mastermind handing him the task at 36 years old, in a Prelim final, at the SCG. If one of his assistants suggested it, he deserves just as much scorn for agreeing to such a moronic idea.
The cherry on top is the universal praise he gets for such outcomes.
If that’s ‘Port overperforming’, I’d hate to see what a bad day at the office is for this dolt.
