Bucky has god damn dementia if he is backing this shit. Club must be getting scared if they are rolling him out.

Its like rolling out blighty to back Nicks.
 
I think you gotta respect Bucky’s opinion even if you don’t agree with it. Which I don’t. I can get my head around the instability of not signing Hinkley prior to finals trickling down to all the assistants who would also be in a position of not knowing where they stood, especially at that time where some of us thought we might be in the mix.
Having said that, I remember being quite disappointed Bucky quit after 2004 ,mission accomplished. I thought why would you do that being right in the middle of what could have been a mini dynasty? His endorsement of John James as his heir I’ve got to say was a fail.
To paraphrase The Godfather, perhaps he wasn’t a wartime CEO. Diplomatically, he was what we needed to get the SANFL onside for our AFL bid but not necessarily that ruthless Bruce Webber type to make ruthless calls like what’s needed now.

Strange chap is Ken Oath. Often calling others crap supporters while sprouting holier then though comments, one if his classics is calling others keyboard warriors, while being a keyboard warrior

Was also quite vicious in trying to unmask the ‘We Were Port Adelaide’ account, when he himself is an alias.

An absolute toolshed.

Who's Ben?

Former membership manager.
 
14 of the 18 clubs have made a grand final and/or sacked their coach since 2021.

The only exceptions are Adelaide, Port Adelaide, Fremantle and West Coast (funnily enough the 2 SA clubs and the 2 WA clubs).

Adelaide sacked their coach in 2019. Fremantle sacked their coach in 2019. West Coast made a grand final in 2018.

We just sit here living in a hub of mediocrity all by ourselves.

17 of 18 clubs don't have David Koch as Chairman.
 
So Rucci’s moved from “Geelong fans wanted to sack Bomber Thompson, Richmond fans wanted to sack Damien Hardwick” to,

“Hey, uh, completely devoid of any relevant context, here’s two blatantly cherry-picked examples of career coaches who broke through for a title — one a literal miracle, the other with arguably the most talented quarterback ever — eventually”.

Meanwhile Koch has switched out “remember 2012?!” for “remember 2002?!”

Can’t believe the fanbase is at boiling point!
Not to mention when people cherry pick Dimma and Bomber they also prove the point tha even the biggest outliers took what, 8 or 9 years to win a flag? Ken's probably on track to double that and still not win a flag.
 
Spoke with a Port supporter at my work today (a rarity in Melbourne, also if you're here it's me from the newsagent lol) and he's very much in agreement with me on the topic of Ken should **** off and so should the board. One of the realisations I had while chatting was that even if you ignore the August re-signing, 2 years is ****ing ridiculous for an 11 year coach with 0 GFs.

Ben is in a possy that most of are not, he has seen the inner sanctum and knows the reality of the beast!

Should change his handle to 'ken dickhead
