Opinion Sack Hinkley 6 - Kochblocked

[Alberton Proud]

I'm all for replacing Hinkley, but I do think the whole #sackhinkley thing does us more damage than good. It certainly doesn't help when trying to attract players or staff to the club. It's personal and entirely without nuance. There are justifiable, evidence backed reasons why Port Adelaide should be seriously looking at replacing the coach. There's even a good argument to be made that we should have done it a while ago. "Sack Hinkley" doesn't do any of that. It just gives ammunition to the media (who control the narrative) to label us as ungrateful simpletons. It's got attention, but i just worry it's also done some damage.

Feel free to post your thesis on every stobie down Port Rd

Would you prefer a "mutual decoupling of club and Hinkley" campaign?

Said sticker has done its job in one morning. More than I can say about Hinkley in ten years.

 

[Del165198]

Get off Ken's back ,what we need is another couple big tall fast players other clubs have them & are playing well ,we will have Brynn Teakle back so that's one ,it's not over yet we have been playing better football just getting pipped at the final siren in a couple of times .don't give up the faith .GO POWER

It Luther and the theses. There wasn't a church door, so the sign had to do.

Just lacking a So Fresh reference

 

[afl2004]

Sack hinkley so no greyhounds get murdered , should be a sign , maybe I'll make that a sign

 

[Doctor Feel]

That notification that just came through from the app, I was like omg is it happening?

"AFL PRE-SEASON MATCH LOCKED IN!"

Imagine my disappointment.

 

[Del165198]

I actually saw some ****ing idiot say what ken has done this year with the injuries we've had has been amazing.

We're ****ing 10th!! WE PLAYED IN A PRELIM LAST YEAR AND NOW WE'RE ONE WIN AHEAD OF HAWTHORN.

WHAT IS WRONG WITH THESE MOUTH BREATHING IDIOTS

 

[finbarr]

I want to put Sack Hinkley signs on every stobie pole from Grand Junction road towards Brougham Place.

The street walkers union will deem the mere sight of his name damaging to business and demand the signs be taken down.

 

[El Zorro]

It's a funny one. I've watched football (soccer before someone corrects me) my entire life as well as the AFL and I've seen protests, banners, near enough riots to get owners & managers out in football, but one sticker triggers some AFL fans.

It's a sheltered sport here in comparison the reaction to the sticker has amused me all morning

No need to apologise, it's called football. And yes, AFL is very sheltered and controlled.

The happy clappers don't know what's good for them, they are like an idiot relative you have to part the seas for every so often.. they'll thank you later.

 

[klem22]

nope.

If change doesn't happen at the top revolution will come from Below!
10 years of hinkley going nowhere!
That's why Koch is the elephant in the room the lack of leadership that he has displayed puts the whole fabric of the club at risk from top to bottom!

They're in essence no different to Beryl and Bob Crows supporters. The thankless task of the heavy lifting needs to be done for them, but they're only too happy to benefit from the spoils of victory facilitated by those willing to stick their chin out to be hit.

This argument would have been reasonable in 2018, but we're long past the point where asking nicely will get anything done. The club have been ignoring the supporters and thumbing their noses at us for years now. Time to make them uncomfortable.

 

[Capital Power]

The Club is fond of benchmarks - Collingwood go from 13th to top 4 this season on the back of a new coach and president. Worth a try perchance?

Where were these absolute cretins when primus was in charge? Durrrhh you gotta support da boys no matta wot duuhhhrrr

They've well and truly become hooked on Kern's particular brand of snake oil

I got suspicious when all my correspondence from the Club was addressed to Mr. Noise. Also I don't seem to get the member surveys these days.

They've become everything we used to mock about crows supporters. All they want is a safe and happy environment and a relatively good chance of turning up every second week for the happy vibes of a win at home. Premierships? Pfffft! A premiership dynasty? LOL!!!

The media are, almost without exception, a pack of useless w***ers; craven yes-men who lack the courage and capacity to critically interrogate a failed football program and administration.

If you believe any of them have any interest in advancing our unimpeachable case against Hinkley, or the integrity to follow through, you are mistaken.
