Opinion Sack Hinkley 3 - 2021 is worse than 2020 already

[Pt Augusta Power]

Was hoping for a competitive effort. Brisbane are a good side and I would have been okay at a 2 goal loss. But instead - game blown away in the second quarter, no defensive efforts in the middle, tiny offensive minded defence that capitulated with one of the worst #1’s ever leading them.
Totally smashed in the air too. Couldn’t take a mark in our f50 and Brisbane just plucked

worst is - the blokes that need to go will stay in. Ken will sacrifice a tall for another small.


10th place again.

... Literally nobody thought this. Why pretend that narrative exists?

That's the joke

 

[PowerBaz]

Its not that we lost, it's how we lost. Every time we lose it has to be a what happen power. It can't just be a dreary loss where we couldn't get over the line.

It has to be some horrendous blow out.

We have a way in the space of 5min to make it clear we won’t win.

 

[Us against the rest]

Spot the difference.

We all thought he was the commander in chief of the free peoples of the solar system when we were ahead 0.2 to 0.0 early against Brisbane.

Plenty of people did, that's a big part of the problem. David Koch would have been one of them. Kornes was another.

We need to thinkery hardery because we know the “what” but we don’t know the “why”

Hinkley: We got out-muscled around the footy

Ken Hinkley has given credit to Brisbane for its pressure around the ball in their 37-point win against his side

Does he actually ever say anything other than 'beaten around the contest or work harder at the contest?

Yikes.
Just watched the Hinkley post game interview.
Seemed happy and cheerful at copping a smashing
Oh well - back to the grind I suppose.

Not often, but to be fair, the whole team was poor yesterday, so to just pinpoint coaching as the sole issue is to gloss over all the other elephants in the room.

lol they aren't people like you and I they are men in the industry with agendas, I'm talking about normal supporters

Spoken like a coach who knows he needs to finish around 10th.

He isn't going to say work smarter, because that would have more people questioning whether he has enough between the ears to teach the players to do this. By saying work harder, it puts it all back on the players because effort is expected to come from within. He may not have much between the ears coaching wise, but he's got rat cunning when it comes to avoiding blame.

The thing is that that particular elephant has been here 8 years, and all the other elephants have come and gone multiple times with nothing actually changing.

out coached and still found time to laugh away at a thumping

absolute joke he’s still coaching this great club

What else would you expect someone who has NFI to say?

Because he knows in a season where the Vic clubs cannot be arsed taking full squads to hubs we will fall in to the top 8, fail, and he will get his contract extended by the muppets in charge of the club. This guy is a daylight robber.

Maybe the Crows can take Ken off our hands to bring some proper culture next season. The other club that could do with Ken Hinkley is Melbourne.

That's prob the best chance of getting rid of hinkley is if we found a club dumber then us to take him off our hands...

He always says the other team 'deserved to win' when we cop a loss.
