Opinion Sack Hinkley 8 - "Ask me in August"

[finbarr]

I'm hearing Hardwick bought a 700k weatherboard in Holden Hill.

I'm hearing he just purchased a 51% share in Soto's.

 

[PowerBaz]

I went to the ground today, took the kids, watched some training. Davies and Ken are thick as thieves.

I want Hinkley out a helluva lot but I want Davies out just as much.

Here we are in 2015 and expectations are high and disaster. We finish 9th (12-10) 2 wins less than the previous year. Didn't really recover after being 3-5 and losing to the team that finished 17th and 18th which IF we won would have had the same Win/Loss as the previous year.

2015 Draft

IN OUT

Toumpas	K Cornes
Dixon	Flynn
Bonner	Harvey
Johnson	Logan
Snelling	Mitchell
Hewett	Moore
Houston	Redden
Mitchell	Russell
	Shaw
	Wagner

This one is a small OUTS are better than the INS with Hinkley paying a fortune for his captains pick. Getting Houston and Bonner has 2 decent players picked up for not much gives us 2 more that will turn 21 in 2019.

Houston was the November 2016 Rookie Draft, debuted R1 2017 as the classic preseason bolter.

Confirmed

 

[Miss December]

F**k it. I'm all in on this. It's happening.

Unfortunately I know for sure that Hardwick is locked in for the sun's. One less option for us to be rid of the potato.

 

[Willsy10]

I like the Carr and Hinkley combo. Carr to take over in 2 years would be my guess. Hardwick better suited to the suns.

The talk of 5 year deals for Hinkley are ridiculous. Do they realise how old he is? 2 years is plenty.

If the suns offer him 5 and he walks, the carr handover gets pushed forward. No big deal.

Does bell park or wherever stinkley came from need a coach?

The sun's have locked Hardwick, we'll get a succession plan to recognize that Carr is doing the coaching and Ken to handover unless Richmond grab Carr.

In that case, i'll cling to the "Hinkley to Suns as head of football" thing then.

I simply cannot stomach Hinkley at Port in 2024.

I've lost my cling.

Best we can probably hope for is a succession plan announcement. Carr is ready now that's the worry.

Me too but I think that to save face the club will do the handover because I don't think anyone else wants Ken. It's clear that when push comes to shove all of them go... err..ah..nah.

Worst case is daddy actually makes a grand final and gets pumped, then we can't even call him donuts anymore

Re Hartlett

Literally on his Wikipedia page
" However, in 2015, Hartlett had an up and down season. He was often serviceable in his role across half-back and pushing up to the wing but seemed to be less damaging "


He also played 2011 and 2012 at half back it isnt a foreign position

Also re wines

******* lol. No one is saying that 2021 wines isnt the best wines
What a strawman.

A half back doesn't have 489 disposals, 131 tackles, 76 inside 50s and 75 clearances (27 centre clearances, 44 stoppage clearances) for the season. Sorry.

I dream of filling my boot with donuts and just standing in the alberton carpark pelting them at the doors until the cops come. I wake up as they're stuffing me into the paddywagon while I try to get off just one more...

hasn’t done a lot wrong, is it possible they simply stick with him or is going with a caretaker coach become taboo since the Shaw and Teague disasters?

Should you stop drinking diet soft drinks after the new cancer advice?

The artificial sweetener aspartame has been listed as a possible carcinogenic hazard to humans. But what does that mean for your diet soft drink habit? Here's how to digest the findings, writes Evangeline Mantzioris.

They probably had to fold after the crippling loss of Daddy Diatribe.

I was going to go with the eggs personally bit cheaper than donuts and more messy

EDIT: My latest research shows that he was on the 2016 list and I’m not going crazy.

He was drafted on 27 November 2015 which was called the 2016 Rookie Draft which confusingly was held on the same day as the 2015 National Draft so says Wikipedia.

The most important thing is it doesn't matter if there's no interest from other clubs. Hinkley is out of contract. We're not obliged to do anything and tough t1ts if he hasn't got a job. He won't starve with the millions we've paid. Expensive doughnuts.
