Opinion Sack Hinkley 6 - Kochblocked

[chachi11]

PORT WITH NO RUCK IN THE MIDDLE AGAIN! (Melbourne goal twice).

Yeah.

The umpire screaming "Port Adelaide no ruck.....PORT ADELAIDE NO RUCK" was the highlight of last week's game.

You can't make that shît up..

Lol. Toxicity. Possibly certain posters who have become completely obsessive about the subject who post almost on a loop might have some toxicity in general in their own lives, but Hinklet and the club's board deserve all the derision they get.

have a good look at yourselves bigfooty keyboard warriors, when did you ever do anything with your lives. Your nothing but a bunch of lemmings not willing to get with the programme. Ken's has bleed for this club, he's not the self centered, money grabbing narcissist just looking to prolong his career, he's genuinely cares about winning a premiership and would never put his interest in front of the clubs interest. Every year is like a do-or-die battle for footy supremicy but dont you dare judge him on that. I know what your thinking, your thinking 10 years is long enough, well let me tell you Rome wasnt built in a day and when it was it lasted centuries. Ken's in for the long haul and he's determined to build that empire as its his god given right to do so.

i think that was the runner, its the brilliant mind of Ken to force the players to play to the losing ruck as it's then a more predictable outcome. With another ruckman this of course cant be implemented.

 

[Arsene Wenger]

I find it funny that Rooch goes on about Ken is coaching better than ever this year. Even if that is true, its further evidence that he is not good enough. Even his best coaching is middle of the road (at best).

 

[John the Butcher]

Hey PAFC. White noise here. Good way to ruin years of engagement and passion for the club. Sack the imposter before it's too late for some. And hey Rucci. Stop the CCP like propoganda.

 

[Enviable Tradition]

It only presents a high happy clapper proportion because they vet the comments to make sure the only ones survive are blowing smoke up his arse.

Same reason why Kane, Rucci and co are doing a lot of the media cheerleading in the face of irrefutable evidence that his time is very much up and has been up for over half a decade.

Nah there's a huge percentage of supporters who just "trust the club"

They will just regurgitate whatever the club mouth prices tell them to think.

I'd guess its something like.

10% trust Ken
60% trust the club
30% sack Ken

As soon as the club says they are moving him on it will be 90+% sack Ken.

Exactly.

His best coaching with a strong list has net us one win against a top 8 team.

Thanks for this. I logged on to read about others thoughts on the game on Sunday and had to wade through 22 redundant comments about Ken in China and what he ate, drank and who he sat next to. I went to those games and we won both of them.

This doesn’t mean I don’t think he should finish up, it just means I don’t care how much Coke Zero he drinks and what happened in China is ancient history. I just want my team to be at the pointy end of the ladder and my club to be financially stable and the kids at the club like Rozee, Butters, Marshall, Bergman etc to feel supported and connected.

I noticed in the past two weeks CD has mentioned Ken has a personal issue and he’s required time off, if there’s an illness those who are calling for his head may get their wish and in the meantime I think we should all try and play the ball and not the man.

This is true IMO.

Last night I was on my knees before bed (praying) and God told me not to hate the player, but to hate the game.

Words to live by.

Thanks for the great post.

See you at the footy Power fans!

First home game for 2023 under new coach Alastair Clarkson, and the bumper Port crowd of 52000 is treated to a vastly different game plan from what they've been used to in recent years - fast, attacking footy, and a dangerous forward set up. Calls are heard right around the ground, "Where has this been for the last decade?"

 

[Lockhart Road]

Did CD ever get back to Lockhart Road re the players/coach/staff greyhound syndicate? Or has he chosen to avoid that question entirely and take no action?

We spoke on the subject, yes. My objective was to register my objection to the situation and that I did. We then talked about China and politics.

The syndicate and clique issue automatically goes away with Hinkley when he departs.

If that departure is delayed, and I don’t believe it can be, and the greyhound nonsense remains, then I shall be taking it up with the deputy chairman.

 

[Steve Dore]

Exactly.

His best coaching with a strong list has net us one win against a top 8 team.

The logical conclusion from Hinkley being a brilliant coach and coaching at his absolute best yet us still being sh!t is that our list is the worst in the AFL. Is Koch actually going to acknowledge that and sack our recruiting team and our development coaches?

The club can't have it both ways.

But is CD happy to endorse this type of relationship between coaches and players?

He wasn’t when I made sure he knew that Big Bob McLean would’ve regarded it as a felony and taken appropriate action.

 

[PA88]

Unsurprisingly i for one agree with Fords appeal. At the same time i am wondering if this reasonable request is ignored, what happens then!

Does Ken go Rock climbing?

I get to have a right of reply on the forum, whereas those under relentless scrutiny (putting it mildly) are more constrained to reply and yes there is individual rights and laws etc. It is not really about feelings.

'They' (Ken and Koch) had their right of reply after the preliminary, and at the agm after the cocaptaincy debacle but they fobbed off the members with demeaning tone and description. It's happened on other occasions too. The club started the unwarranted indifference towards the members. Initially lots of us hadn't given them disrespect to deserve their arrogance in return. Now it's past the point of return. So Ken can fall on his sword and I hope it's long enough to impale your sorry butt too.

Only if Rucci has early onset dementia.

When I’ve used aliases in the past I’ve deliberately posted the odd spelling error and jibberish to throw people off the scent,

And his last reply to me, was revealingly lucid:

And all at the precise time Ford does a sweep of the thread.

Amusing if so.

I would think he is a number of people. Because isn't he the one that can't spell or indeed string a coherent sentence together at times, then seems perfectly lucid at other times??

He types one handed the weeks after we win.

So he could be Port's answer to Lynda Loades?
