Opinion Sack Hinkley 6 - Kochblocked

Whately just now on 360: “Port Adelaide’s Ken Hinkley, one of the greatest thinkers in the game…”

Oh wow.

Did he say which game?

Pretty certain he said "stinkers".

And the thing is, it’s nothing you don’t see a stack of on most socials — and from otherwise genuine ‘salt of the earth’ Port people.

If Ken was signed to a 5-year extension today, and then proceeded to finish say, 10th, 7th, 10th, 5th, 10th, these people would be over the moon, stridently calling for another to take him into the 2030’s.

At this point ‘Cult’ isn’t a throwaway line — short of going winless and taking a spoon I’m not sure there’s a catalyst that can turn these types anymore.

Great post.

Sums things up so well. The thing about being a Port supporter was not to be, or need to be spoonfed. Quite the opposite really. We prided ourselves on the 'us against them' mentality, and some of our greatest triumphs were after being widely written off by the anti-Port SA media.

I have used the term 'True Believer' in other posts, not knowing it had been adopted, bastard-child like by the happy clappers. But I am a True Believer in the PAFC as it was, but recent times, the last 5-7 years, have shaken and reduced that belief like never before. Get these snivelling invertebrates out of OUR CLUB NOW

SACK HINKLEY

 

[Janus]

He benefited from the covid cost cutting very early in the year, having accepted a pay cut and getting his contract extended early. Thus, he never actually coached through 2020 under much pressure at all.

His contract was extended in 2021.

 

[Loony Juice]

That’s exactly what Ed wants, he doesn’t want a stand alone Tassy team….. that’s his agenda.

Maybe the AFL comes in and says, we’ll help pay for your stadium if you take North…..

And I genuinely hope the Tassie government stand firm on the principle of having their own team

Thing is, if COVID hadn't hit the vfl coffers so hard it would almost have been done by now. Well made official and entry date, colours, etc been rolled out by now

Hmm I wonder wots for dinner

Donna!…Donna! What you cooking up tonight? I’m thinking ham and cheese toastie

“Good thinking Kenneth, the same meal you’ve eaten the past 40 years”

 

[Loony Juice]

s**t will hit the fan if Hinkley is still there next year.

The manure truck will hit more than the fan!

 

[Loony Juice]

You don't think he hasn't been asked to explore his options already?

Based on 2023 is it.

What?

Like Pepsi Max?

If you've ever seen the movie " Being There "
Ken is Chance the gardener.

 

[manureid]

Koch probably wouldnt want Clarkson. Remember Clarko and Kennett didnt always see eye to eye. Clarko wouldnt take any of Kochie's shit.

 

[WhyAlwaysMe]

Did he say which game?

Connect 4, in one of those huts in Thailand the girls deliberately lose to entice older men.

 

[chachi11]

How clueless are the media in this country.
10 years of Pus and he is "one of the greatest thinkers in the game".

Jeeeezus!

 

[MrMeaner]

Did he say which game?

I'm thinking Kerplunk

 

[finbarr]

His contract was extended in 2021.

Officially, yeah. Sure. I was told in 2020 by someone who would know that he was guaranteed that extension back then. So he may well have officially had it extended in 2021, but he knew back in 2020 it was coming.

 

[Enviable Tradition]

He wouldn't want Clarko at Port - it would make us relevant. Ken keeps us average and not a problem.

You just know Cardone is voting to keep Ken.

 

[WhyAlwaysMe]

If Hinkley was one of the great thinkers of the game or whatever the hell he said then wouldn't there be oppo teams smashing down the door to pry him away from Alberton.

[TazD]

Whately do be trolling from time to time. I don't mind it.

 

[Capital Power]

Whately just now on 360: “Port Adelaide’s Ken Hinkley, one of the greatest thinkers in the game…”

Oh wow.

To be fair he'd have far more thinking time than those coaches playing finals, and doesn't need to waste time polishing the silverware.

 

[fergulator72]

He went into 2020 knowing that if he didn't make finals that year, he wouldn't trigger his extension to 2021.

No trigger this time though
