In this morning's press Matt Turner writes,

But Hinkley, who needs to make the finals to trigger an extension for 2021, says the club always comes first.

I have heard this performance based clause mentioned in other sections of the media but as I have never seen Hinkley's contract and cannot recall Koch or anyone in authority at the PAFC mentioning it I still wonder if it is a fact.

Does someone have an official PAFC source for this please?


It is also interesting that Hinkley is not worried about the fact that Port have missed the finals for the past two years. He obviously believes in the power of forward thinking and does not want to dwell on the past. I can understand that to an extent but from my experience we have always been, proud of the past as well as being confident of the future.
The club always comes first............ I only spat the dummy and threatened to walk out with a year to go on my contract because I was soooooo concerned about the PAFC.
What a guy.

REVIEW OF CONTRIBUTORS DATA PART 1

There are 116 individual posters for this thread.
of these 38 have posted once.
24 have posted twice.
A total of 62 for this category. Roughly 44%
so enough reason to express no more than 2 comments.
we won what 11 games this year and i think we will win 2 more in 2020.
these posters seem to have no real axe to grind, and possibly will be satisfied with the above result.
then how many other registered port posters who have not posted? Who knows.

WTF?
Does this actually mean anything?
 
The club seems to have gone into media saturation mode to try to portray Kern as the coach for the ages, and something approaching God-like status.
All hail King Kenny.

Pity he is tactically inept, grossly intransigent, fails to realise his game plan sucks dog's b***s, and refuses to seek learning opportunitires and develop meaningful engagement with his players until expressely ordered to do so.

Othrr than that, he isn't too bad!
 
REVEW OF COTRiBUTATORS PART 3

In the Sack Hinkley part 2 fread, Us Against the Rest contributations was 500% grater than the next poster. In this one, he's not even the top contributator. His trajectory is worse than Kens. At least Ken is consistent. I'll be enjoying me Crismas lunch down the club.
 
I feel Hinkley's comments these days are sort of implying that he's given up at being at the club beyond next season.

Like no longer in job saving mode, just here to collect his last paycheck and get out.
"... I’d love to be part of it [Port Adelaide Football Club] for the long-term. I’m still having a great time doing what I do and I hope I keep getting to do it for a lot longer. ..."

Hardly the words of a guy who wants to leave. Where's he going to get another job that pays anywhere near the same?

Here's some stats.

0 of the other 17 coaches have been coaching longer than Hinkley without appearing in a grand final.

Only 5 coaches in the history of the VFL/AFL have coached more games without appearing in a grand final - and if he coaches out next year, he passes 2 of them.

When did he say that? Vomit worthy.

But he's coaching at the top of his game though.

Which means that this is as good as it gets.

Declaring that someone who is clearly not meeting expectations is at the top of their game as a statement of support is actually quite bizarre.
