Opinion Sack Hinkley 5 - Lower The Blinds

[Steve Dore]

Yes Chad stated it on triple m today

This is not news.

 

[Powertron]

The next 4 games will tell us if Ken has actually learnt something or not.

Geelong, Essendon, Richmond, Sydney. We need to win 3 at least and see that the free movement and open space in the forward 50 is here to stay.

Given the nine lives Ken has I say we go 2-2 and underwhelm in the wins.

He’s going to drag this out all year….

 

[Schulzenfest]

We're gonna finish 11-11 and 9th and Koch will decide that our stunning renaissance is enough to give him another year. Nothing surer.

 

[Us against the rest]

Well that's our 4 flat track bully games, now for the real stuff in the next 4.

Ken Hinkley single handedly resurrected Port's season on the back of a 4 wins against covid and injury hit sides and a VFL worthy North.
The next 4 games will have Ken's brilliant mind working over time.

 

[Marmozet]

We need to miss the 8 this year at all costs!

I ran the ladder predictor and had us in 8th on percentage, hope i'm wrong because we are not winning any GFs from 8th, all it does is keep Ken in a job.

When's the last time we won at pussy park? 2007? Mark that one down as a loss.

Essendon are rubbish.
Richmond is 50/50.

Sydney is just better than us. We'll likely be 5-8 or 6-7.

I don't see us playing finals. We don't have much of a history of sneaking into finals. Normally when it's close, we find a way to bottle it and choke to finish 9th or 10th.

The Renaissance Man

 

[Marmozet]

Looking pretty far ahead, I have a feeling that Round 22 vs Essendon will be a repeat of Round 22, 2019 vs North Melbourne.

Hopefully Hinkley’s gone by then though.

 

[VineValerian]

Yes. This kind of stuff has been common place for ages.

Works on odd occasions when the people who are at fault are the ones who have to do it.
And a certain amount of our consistent failures are on the players' heads.

However, at least as much, if not more, is the coaches' fault.
Hopefully they are answerable to Davies, Richo, the Board, etc?
And players are able to give honest feedback about them too?

 

[Papa G]

I can see us slipping into 8th, winning an Elimination Final against a Carlton/Freo/St Kilda then losing the semi, finishing 5th thus getting the double whammy of no top 10 draft pick and Ken lauded after getting to finals after an 0-5 start. Yuck.

Waiting until the end of the year is not acceptable. This fraud will qualify for life membership at the club.

 

[afl2004]

We beat a wafl and vfl team , the next month will tell us a lot

Why are people reacting to the elbarton troll?

Agreed, plus I would love to be as sure of winning x-lotto a I am the fruit tingle troll further up the page was taking the p*ss as well.

My hunch is the deal is already done. Hinkley's been told that this is his last year. The club has signed a heads of agreement with Clarko. He's busy compiling his off-field team for next year. Will be announced the week after our season's done.

And we'll be wearing the PB's full time & the easter bunny is real.

I actually agree, to a point. Can't confirm, but the person who told me Clarkson has bought the house at Henley is convinced Hinkley will stay at Port in a mentoring role.

 

[JimmyBC]

Hinkley & Clarko don't get on very well so no chance in Hell.
