I've been critical of Hinkley in terms of developing key talls especially KPD.

What makes it a bit more irritating is that the Crows are pretty good at it. Because Ken coaches a team philosophy over individual, players get away with not defending one on one and when they get a bag kicked on them it is the team's problem. Well, it's both.

Down at the Crows, they play hard, contested ball all over the ground and it seeps into their defensive players. In the first Showdown this year, the rookie Michelanney was super impressive, got smashed by one of our guys, and eventually came back on and played his tail off. Very impressive. The latest Showdown Hinge was super impressive and even commanding down back.

After our loss to Brisbane in the Finals, Aliir was unlucky enough to have a chat with 5AA after the game. He had Daniher kick 5 on him and he just trotted out essentially that it was a team problem and didn't even really think to question his own game. Such is the lack of accountability down at Alberton.
Coaches a team first over individual to avoid individual blame but we all know Ken relies on individual brilliance to drag his shit game plan over the line.
Same reason a few injuries decimate what little team structure we have while other teams seem to be able to carry on with fringe players stepping in to play a role

Without Chad Wingard and Robbie Gray’s individual heroics he’d have been back rubbing shoulders with the rest of Bomber Thompson’s failed acolytes — Brendan McCartney and Brenton Sanderson — years ago.

Just the fact that Gray returned from a Hentschel-tier knee implosion to be literally the best player in the competition less than 2 years later, is the sort of Willy Wonka golden ticket that never really falls in a fledgling coach’s lap.
 
I couldn't find the stat anywhere, so I went ahead and figured it out myself. I present to you - longest tenured coaches at one club:

KENNY HINKLEY - 242 GAMES 0 FLAG 0 GF

The only other coaches to coach more games at one club are..

713 - Jock McHale (16 gf 7 prem)
634 - Kevin Sheedy (7 gf 4 prem)
415 - Dick Reynolds (12 gf 4 prem)
390 - Alistair Clarkson (5 gf 4 prem)
355 - David Parkin (5 gf 3 prem)
333 - Allan Jeans (3 gf 1 prem)
310 - Norm Smith (8 gf 6 prem)
307 - Damien Hardwick (3 gf 3 prem)
305 - Chris Scott (3 gf 2 prem)
304 - Reg Hickey (4 gf 3 prem)
302 - John Longmire (4 gf 1 prem)
299 - John Kennedy (5 gf 3 prem)
286 - Collingwood Malthouse (5 gf 1 prem)
281 - Perce Bentley (3 gf 2 prem)
281 - John Worsfold (2 gf 1 prem)
273 - Mark Williams (2 gf 1 prem)
272 - Phonse Kyne (6 gf 2 prem)
260 - Mark Thompson (3 gf 2 prem)
258 - Frank Hughes (6 gf 4 prem)
248 - Tom Hafey (5 gf 4 prem)
243 - Eagles Malthouse (3 gf 2 prem)

110 grand finals
60 premierships

Every single one of them won at least a flag and coached at least 2 grand finals for their long tenures.


Here we have the bald greyhound killing loser about to overtake the eagles version of Malthouse and Tommy Hafey, who between them got 6 flags and coached 8 grand finals for their clubs.

Look at the list of names and it's basically a who's who of the best coaches in 100+ years of VFL/AFL. If donuts gets another 2 years that puts him up with the Collingwood version of Malthouse and John Kennedy. Lol.

Just a lil update that ken has gone past the eagles version of Malthouse who won 2 flags from 3 grand finals.

Tonight he goes past Tommy Hafey who won 4 Premierships from 5 grand finals.

What a time to be alive

An absolute loser in every facet.

The entire game plan is based on not believing we are good enough to win a ruck tap, win the ball, mark the ball, kick the ball..

We try and neutralise every contest which means at best we are a 50 50 chance and at worst it is like tonight.

Get out no hoper.

Saw this somewhere lol

Finals wins in the last 9 years:
Ken Hinkley: 2 wins
Michael Voss: 2 wins

Voss started coaching last year..
Adam Kingsley has as many finals wins and he started coaching this year...

They’ve both won two finals in 7 days lmao. Seriously put Hinkley’s home and away win percentage stat in the bin forever HE IS SH1T WHEN IT COUNTS.
 
Actually, I think I finally get it. We successfully built the atomic bomb. Our Hiroshima was the Brisbane game and our Nagasaki was the GWS game. When they said they were building the bomb, they just forgot to mention they were using it to blow up their own season and not the other teams. It all makes sense now.
