This is the stories of an ongoing nightmare, absolutely disgusting Port Adelaide.

Can we get this made into a 12/6 foot poster and nail it to the Alberton clubrooms.

Some of this stuff needs to be condensed as much as possible and made into banners at games.
Have multiple sets of banners of each because Koch will probably get security to confiscate them.
They take down one, another pops up elsewhere, and so on. Every home game.

“We went through a bit of a journey about, listen, sides can still have dynasties but they might lose one along the way,” Hardwick explained.

“We looked at examples – San Antonio Spurs, the Detroit Redwings and those sort of sides where they’d been a really good side but had a bad day. And we spoke about the fact that if we just concentrate on and continue to focus on what we can control and what we do and have faith in that, we’ll be OK.

“It’s easy to sit here in hindsight and say it was, but I think we had absolute belief that we could get back and play to the very best of our ability.”

- Hardwick



Meanwhile PAFC Barry Curtin can only continue the club spin by post how many games the Tigers played at the MCG B5363BB5-1ABC-4C2B-B278-69F0F82BC3EF.gif

It'll be interesting to see how he copes being the most under the pump coach in the league from round 1 next year

Here is an excerpt from a recent piece published in ‘The Australian’. It is about end-season 2016 when Richmond invested A$20k-plus in sending Hardwick to Harvard where experts successfully taught him how to take a good hard look at himself and inside himself. There was a lot for him to see, to read, to do something about.


... Richmond have been changed forever by using leadership techniques and lessons learned and gleaned from around the world. In particular, it is the more than $22,000 the club shelled out in late 2016 for then-embattled coach Damien Hardwick to fly to Boston at the beginning of the Massachusetts winter to attend an “Authentic Leader Development” course at the famed Harvard Business School.

“Was it money well spent? Yes, but only because there was a coach who understood and felt deeply it would make a difference in making a better team and a better him, and it has,” O’Neal says. “Coaches spend so much time on professional development, which is important, but the personal development side is overlooked. Maybe a coach is a teacher, so it is how they teach. So to Damien’s credit he went and soaked it in and it has made a difference in how we act.”

It was during that crucial week that Hardwick realised he had to change his leadership style to get the best out of his team, stop letting losses get to him, micromanage and overcoach his players. He learnt on the course to be more aware of his strengths and shortcomings, and how people should put the results of the entire organisation ahead of their own ego.


Can you imagine Hinkley submitting himself in a foreign country to such a self-improvement technique? Can you imagine Koch imagining Hinkley submitting himself in a foreign country to such a self-improvement technique? Can you imagine the CEO imagining Koch imagining Hinkley submitting himself in a foreign country to such a self-improvement technique? A technique dubbed ‘authentic’ by global experts?

At end-season 2016, when Hardwick was being successfully reprogrammed at Harvard, Hinkley was subjected to his own examination and review. It was done internally at the University of Postcode 5015. Hinkley did not like it one little bit. He detested and resisted the process, which was keeping him away from his beloved greyhounds.

Consequently the process - not an ‘authentic’ one - did not work. It failed miserably.

Despite this, Hinkley, twelve months later, was prematurely extended as senior coach so he could, in his own born loser style, guide us out of the eight, safely out of finals, for the next two seasons ... and still have his tenure secured for 2020 by a Board vote of 9 to 1.

Oh, yes, Port Adelaide indeed has a long, long way to go to catch up to Richmond ... or anyone.
He went back for a tune up 12 months later and this February took a break from pre season training and spent almost 2 weeks in London on another leadership course.

The people I feel most sorry for are the Magpies players that busted their guts year after year to secure our place in the AFL. The club has destroyed most of what they built. But things can change quickly if the right people are put in the right positions. Instead of looking at Richmond we should look at the Lions. Basket case to success with a few key appointments. We need to find a Fagan, we need to find a Hodge, etc
