“Ken will know when it’s time to walk away”

Clearly not after listening to his presser.

I love how people blame the players as though we haven't seen this script so many times before. Players who don't know how to react when plan a isn't working is as much of an indictment on the coach as anything. Bomb it to Dixon will be written in the metaphorical tombstone of Hinkley's reign.

Finished second on the ladder and not making the Grand Final absolute fail AGAIN.

Absolutely massive fail. What other coach has played 4 prelims and lost them all in a row?

 

[GremioPower]

I really enjoyed the unwanted Hinkley encore. He played all the hits:

• Gold passes for the boys
• Clearance & Field position dominance
• Long bombs to nowhere
• Intercept bonanza
• Punished on turnover
• Mid-game capitulation
• Half-hearted comeback, far too late
• But just enough for him to cling to his job

10/10.

No notes.

This says it all

Yeah lock in a 3 year extention.

 

[PAFC66]

Thanks for the laughs true believers. See you at the footy in 2025.

Hinkley sounds pretty up beat for someone who just lost his 4th prelim

 

[Byrons Firen]

Yeah but don’t forget Burton. Another two momentum killers by him. He’s a serial underwhelming underperformer in finals

Yeah Burton can look a million dollars but for Sprinkles to highlight Sydney on a really hard deck (?) and coming up short... then throwing the players under the bus... hmmm where have I seen that before.
As the tradesman said... it was my tools

Ken will know because his accountant will tell him he's maxed out his super

When's he ever sounded shattered?
He's not Sam Mitchell.

 

[JUSTWORK]

Butters in the post match just now “Kenny also said to be proud with the season”

Just **** off you pissweak loser

Right here is the problem with Hinkley. He is a career loser. Close enough is always good enough.
We just lost a prelim to a side we beat late in the year by 19 goals. They should be embarrassed, not proud.

He sounded like he just lost another home and away game.

Has experience losing prelims I guess

 

[PeacefulWarrior]

Sorry to be rude but people that bought prelim tickets + accom + exorbitant plane flights are complete and utter morons and deserved what they got.

I’d expect 95% of them are Ken loving happy clappers.

Feel for you guys , as a Pies supporter looking in , and most of your supporters see it , said it last year also , your game plan is so predictable, Bomb it long hail Mary’s and pray for the best. Coach has to go , should have been shown the way out of Alberton 5 years ago. PS. Love watching Horne Francis. Jet. Allir very good. Your captain does not stand up in big games. All the best Port family. Just not against the Woodsmen. ()

The Boak turnover under no pressure in the first 5-10 minutes definitely gave Sydney the momentum

That was a foot off the throat moment.

The whole club just doesn't give a **** about finals.

 

[GremioPower]

Not sure you can blame Ken tonight.
Our boys just kept turnovers galore .You dont beat the best teams playing like that.

When everyone is bad, it’s on coaching

 

[crafty_bernardo]

Hinkley hit by the karma bus

Not really. He's just that bad, it's not really a surprising result

 

[gtrxuone]

When everyone is bad, it’s on coaching

Yep fair call
Just cant believe we dominated the 2nd qtr and got smashed on the scoreboard

 

[Winganeen]

Imagine Chad gone and Teague in.

Absolutely loser club, through and through. Could tell from Rozee's on ground interview after the Hawks win that we'd just won our grand final - only for that to be confirmed with Hinkley's carry on.

 

[PAFC66]

We are so far away from great clubs like Geelong and Sydney. Absolute minnows

 

[Grimoz]

Hard luck gents but holy **** Boak was bloody atrocious tonight, should never set foot on an AFL field again, leading goal assists for Swans i reckon.

 

[PAFC66]

Imagine Chad gone and Teague in.

That'll change everything

Zac is a downhill skier.

Don’t want him traded yet but I’d like another coach to try and turn it around.
