Opinion Sack Hinkley 8 - "Ask me in August"

[FutureShock]

Well the way Victorian media make him sound like Jesus Christ Id be surprised if there's none.

They see 2nd on the ladder and 13 in a row and think "good"

That's just the media with their inexplicable Hinkley cheerleading. The clubs in the market for a coach aren't that stupid.

 

[WillemDaDrew]

Donuts is not going to be offered 4 or 5 years elsewhere.

The whole comp knows he is a fraud.

Bloody Well said....
It's why the 17 other clubs and the Vic/SA Crom suppporting media want him to be extended at Port.
1 less team to worry about come finals time.

Ken saying he's "very very comfortable" with the doc's decision could be the thing that finally ejects him into the sun. We'll cop and absolute pasting from the AFL and in the media. The useless prick was sitting on the bench watching it at ground level. Doesn't care about players health, doesn't care about greyhounds.. how many times has he rolled out a "star" played on one leg to try and save his bacon? Shit bloke, no history

Something tells me the Geelong and Geelong-adjacent mafia who’ve spent the past three months blowing raspberries on his excess scrotum skin will find a way to quarantine him from the impending furrowed browathon on player welfare, and the ultimate decision to send Aliir back out despite the obvious optics.

Fk it, after last night's debacle I'm going to tell you why I think Hinkley is gone.
1. Clurey looking elsewhere: Port Adelaide defender reportedly "open to a trade": AFL trade news
2. Wines form
3. DBJ's form

I think the whole Max Power syndicate is out the door at years end.

Not sure what that is: google it.

In other words, Ken said to the doc something like "I don't give a shit how you do it, just get him the f**k back out there..."

 

[growly]

Where's this come from? Why would he sign a 1 year deal when he'd likely be offered 4-5 elsewhere

Sorry to intrude but there is a bit of talk that there will be a succession plan announced. Ken will coach in 2024 then carr takes over in 2025. Also ken wouldn't be offered a better deal elsewhere.

“Which one?”

— “The 1-dog”

“The what?”

— “Ahhh…liir Aliir”

A bit like what trainers do to their greyhounds

You were here last year saying Keninkley is gone at the end of 2022 'no matter what'. Maybe give up on these shitty predictions and go post on the Freo board instead.

Your posting history here clearly shows you're not one who needs to preface your posts with "Sorry to intrude".

 

[Workingclass]

I see you are new to Port Adelaide.

We'll be finishing 2nd in spite of our everything, not because of it - if any clubs are going to squander a golden opportunity to finish with a home final and double chance, it's Brisbane and Melbourne.

The way janus defends this bloke only for it to blast him square in the face is never not funny

My whole family are ports we live in Adelaide and go to every home game. I have a port season ticket. But I was born in freo and came to Adelaide when I was 10. I get to ride the dissapointments of 2 clubs

I’m on tenterhooks as to how he’ll spin this 4-game bloc after the Cats do their usual Torquay-Two Step on our self-dug graves.

Poor bastard , at least freo beat the cats as revenge for port lol

But this doesn't address anything I've said. Are you saying Carr was coaching the last few games just as he was during the 13 or not? Again... I want Hinkley gone and I'd like Carr in, but if I want to credit him with the wins and the sensible selection during the streak, I have to do the same for the last few weeks. I don't believe Carr has been "basically coaching" since round 3. We've had excellent minor round performances in 20 / 21 too and s**t the bed. No difference this year to indicate Ken isn't still just as in charge as ever.

Believe whatever you want to believe. Either way it’s not reasonable to hold Carr to the same standard as Hinkley because he isn’t the one that has spent the last decade weaving multiple issues into the fabric of our club.

"Heavy training load"

Did he coach the game on the weekend though?
People saying "it's not that black and white!". Yeah, no shit, that's my point. I'm as over Hinkley as everyone else, I'm also over people making wild unsubstantiated claims about "who's actually coaching" and what deals have already been done etc. I bloody hope they haven't already been done because we are looking cooked and we revert back to the same old "bomb it to Dixon" crap. Still coming out like a wet blanket in big games. My only hope is that we are undergoing heavy training loads but really the most obvious reason is we are cooked after our undefeated streak.

We will get Grundy, ratugolea , zerg Thatcher and he will claim its the beginning of hinkley ultra mega super dooper mega trooper ultra megaman team football.

Then we will start 5-5 win 4 in a row he'll get smug and eventually leads to a home elimination loss after we lead by 4 goals in the 3rd qtr against a team that was 13th in round 20 and claims Jones kicks hit his boot at 2 cm off centre a lot and it puts the whole team off

 

[manureid]

Donuts would be spewing about Brisbane losing. Dropping out of top 2 and not having tha first home final takes the pressure off. Then not getting a home prelim is even better if they make it. It's not a choke then. Gives him the out he needs.
