Opinion Sack Hinkley 7 - "Turn it around or watch out"

[JimmyBC]

Lyon to Essendon would be good, dour ugly fail when it counts.

 

[Chewy316]

Without revealing your sources, can you elaborate on what you mean by "people that have dealt with Ken recently"?

Not particularly, no.
I'll just say that there are people in high places telling other people in high places that despite Ken's stoicism and public affirmations that he will be coach next year at Port, that is not necessarily the case. Whether they can actually reach an agreement that sees Ken move on that all parties are satisfied with is another matter altogether though.

All he has to do is make finals with a talented list and a soft draw.

Shit Jimmy you are making me scared

We literally have a lame duck coach who knows he won't be here after next year stubbornly digging his heels in because he wants to milk more than the $6 million or so he's already milked out of the club, presumably to gamble on greyhounds and to buy himself his next cashed up bogan McMansion somewhere just out of Geelong.

This is what we have become. A total farcical joke of a franchise team appropriating the name of a once proud football club.

 

[JimmyBC]

s**t Jimmy you are making me scared

You should be.

 

[Port 2004]

You should be.

I just hope Chewy is on the money.

 

[Us against the rest]

Imagine being jealous of Norf

Shoot me now

Another team that will go past Port.

Essendon would go hard for Hardwick

I've heard Hardwick wants to get out of Melbourne the city.

 

[Alberton Proud]

The media are just feeding off that majority of supporters want him out.

That's good

We are getting some cut through

We may not have won the battle, but we'll fookin win the war

 

[TeeKray]

You know what the irony of all of this 'it's not the SANFL, it's too hard to win, you expect too much' garbage that we cop is? It's actually because we KNOW it's hard to win that we want an aggressive approach to winning. The Creed acknowledges that winning a premiership is difficult. It's actually the 'lol, settle down, it's not the SANFL anymore, just wait your turn' crowd who don't realise how hard winning is in this league. If you have that attitude you will NEVER win a premiership.

I heard he brought a house in Adelaide

 

[Us against the rest]

all done now, we are stuck with the clown

Paying members will be but I wont condone the decision to keep him.

Tullamarine has some nice country acres to the north.

 

[PowerBaz]

From Clarko...

 

[powermacs]

Lol Norf players got rid of Nobel because he was mean to them. Good luck with Clarkson. I’m not sure North are all that strong off the field to be able to handle Clarkson, he’ll do what he wants. Can’t see him wanting to do sit down interviews on a couch the week before he’s sacked. I can see it going south.

 

[TazD]

From Clarko...

Nah they're in it together. Clarko was so inspired by Russ that he's committed to be fly in/out for North

It's dumb on so many levels has anyone ever told South Adelaide how easy winning SANFL premierships is?

I mean it's a garbage line you have South in St. Kilda territory & Glenelg, West etc popping up for one every 30 years or so.. it was never easy anywhere.

Some time after the bye.

Schofield to Essendon would take a few posters to the ledge here.

 

[PowerLil]

[TeeKray]

The fact that Hinkley has let his vendetta against Schofield stop him from giving his son an opportunity in a season that's been dead since April and has featured plenty of games for puny spuds like Frederick and McEntee says it all.

Pathetic, vengeful, disgusting man.

That would be about the end of me....

 

[Launchpad McQuack]

Clarkson probably wanting to rebuild Norf to go up against Mitchell's Hawks. Would suit his angry little man complex to want to dunk on the Hawfs when they are next contending.

Meanwhile, Hinkley at Ports building his list of things more important than success in footy:

• family
• consolidating the Hinkley mafia family
• punting on the pups
• punting (the euthanised) pups
• blinds go up, blinds go down
• searching for any remaining stock of Coke Zero
• continuing to shit on ungrateful Ports members

 

[Us against the rest]

I still think the best suitor for GWS is Hinkley but after a similar type in Cameron, they may see Hinkley as a downgrade.

No offense to Cameron, at least he has some common decency, and puts his club before himself.

I was so pissed watching Taj go around in the sanful last week. He was a cut above any of the like-types. Your post is so spot-on.
