The only thing keeping me going, in a football sense, is the prospect that Ken Hinkley is sacked this year.

I didn't have the guts to tip us, but I have a feeling we'll beat St. Kilda - easing the pressure on our favourite coach......

Subject to conditions, the Saints will have a stranglehold on the game by quarter time.

One condition being Port failing to show up in the 1st quarter - again.

Yeah, between WAFL Coast bringing zero intensity and heart, and St Kilda relentlessly shutting down the Giants’ star-studded engine room last week, this has “I CAN’T BELIEVE THEY JUMPED US AND WE COULDN’T PLAY OUR GAME!” written all over it.

Same.
In my delusional mind the ball has started rolling and the club is already in contact with coaches managers.

Todd Marshall. I'm really enjoying his season.

I'll throw in extra for a will smith

Reminds me of the queue in Flying High to slap the hysterical woman

Hinkley talking about how St Kilda had an unexpectedly bad year last year for "a variety of reasons" and now they are flying at 5-0 was about as subtle as if he had tied himself to the goal posts at Alberton.

Seeing as though we've dragged our tails this week & the Saints are already up there I'd say it's even more likely.

Hinkley never misses an opportunity to pat himself on the back. He's a master at it.

We’re about 4-5 unexpectedly bad years in front.

These words will still be uttered in 2033.

Yeah i'm concerned as well. We've been absolute dogshit so far but we still have basically the entire team that finished 2nd last season and i'm terrified they'll click into gear and play decent enough footy over the next few weeks to take the pressure off.

I think, based on a decade of Hinkley, that we'll have been lulled into a false sense of security and St Kilda will smash us, but because good things can never happen to us, we'll probably have an unconvincing win or a close loss and the club will be pushing the narrative hard that Ken's got them back on track.

I'm hoping the odds push out a bit then i'm going to bet on us, something I never do. But at least my sportsbet account will be happy if we win.

Marshall going to get hated for not being consistent enough to being hated for keeping hinkley in a job

So basically our coach is pulling out the 'does it matter when you lose your 5 in a row' rhetoric.

Never mind being 1-5 is already a terrible position to be in. 2013 was totally different, after sitting 5-5 we had 12 games left, so going 7-5 and making finals is still very doable. This time we have to go 12-4 just to scrape in on the back of a big PF loss.
