Almost had to grab the tissue box last night watching 360. The sympathy card was well and truly dealt.

His contract ends this year. No need to sack him.

Perhaps you could explain how Adelaide fans reading this thread — whose opinions you simultaneously don’t care for — could ‘exploit internal divisions’?
"Listen boys, there is a split between Port's coaching group and Quite Large Sherrin. We need to exploit that. Get into the players heads by letting them know PapaG wants Boak gone, MrMeaner won't buy a membership until Koch and Ken are gone and Doctor Feel keeps asking if they have lost yet."
I can't see how this can fail.

Crows have too many of their own internal divisions to worry about ours.
Crows fans with any sense hate their admin as much as we do.
Sack him any way, it sounds better and will make us feel better. Nothing like a good sacking.
Unfortunately some of our senior players are buying into the Hinkley bullshit and it's okay to lose as long as you are good humans.
I won't single out any individuals but I think most of us here know who they are.

BELTING OFF
I think it was Zakk Wylde who once said Hinkley looks like a thumb with a face in a polo shirt. Once you see that image you can never unsee it.
LOL, the hany man is having the holiday of his life......in Bali

I'm finding it quite difficult to not let my hatred of Hinkley transfer to all baldies. Koch is partly to blame as well
New guy started here, who could be a Hinkley/Koch facemash (also has the voice of Koch but the diction of Ken)
He's a nice enough chap but I can't stand him

I'm not so sure - this drivel makes me think he might've been reading (or was shown) some guru's 'latest thinking in sports psychology' nonsense:
Hinkley further explained on AFL 360 how he believes the team let itself down in the first half.
“We lost our way, we like to talk around humility a little bit at our footy club and we want to be the right type of people,” he said.
“We got lost in ourselves ...
Humility and Port Adelaide Football Club are not two things you would have once associated together - maybe that's what Warren Tredrea has to learn before he's allowed back at the club.

Until the 360 interview yesterday, I expected Ken to resign close to round 18 after a mediocre season but it's clear now that his faux honour and misguided resilience act is more akin to your stubborn grandfather on his deathbed who isn't letting go until Xenu himself shows up with a lanyard.
I almost choked on my Weeties when I heard Ollie say that on SEN yesterday. Humility? I'd rather be an arrogant, obnoxious winner thanks.
I think there's a balance. Anyone who remembers the way Clive Lloyd's West Indians went about dominating world cricket might look at that as the template. I do. Brutal, ruthless, but fair. Always played in a great spirit, but feared and respected like no one before or since. I don't want to be obnoxious, poor winners anymore than I want to be meek losers.
Yes and no. I want to be a winner. Obnoxious may be a poor choice of a word but the Port of old had an arrogance that is only born from success along with an uncompromising, never die attitude. Hinkley and the way he speaks and acts and more importantly, tells the players to act is not synonymous with the Port Adelaide of old. It will never wash with me.

New Power coach Matthew Primus strives to shake the club's reputation for arrogance.
Humble you say?
We have spend so much time talking about 2011 we have literally gone back there.

Arrogance is very different to obnoxious. The West Indies had a quiet arrogance. Everything about Viv Richards striding to the crease, sans helmet, in just a cap, chewing gum, to face Thomson and Lillee, oozed arrogance. I can live with arrogance.
