Fairfax futbol journalist, author of the recently released Postecoglou biography ‘Angeball’, and famously not-a-doctor, Vince Rugari, just dropped this article. Thought it should be shared, on account of it being rare, relatable content from a genuine Port fan in the mainstream media

I like current coach Ken Hinkley. I like the way he wears his heart on his sleeve. That’s us. I do think he’s been in the job for longer than his finals record deserves, but I am extremely open and indeed eager to be proved wrong.
I thought Port fans were within their rights to boo him earlier this year when we lost to the Brisbane Lions in a game dedicated to the 20-year anniversary of the 2004 flag. We lose too many important games to be taken seriously, and our semi-final win over Hawthorn the other night doesn’t change anything. Hinkley is, unfortunately, the common denominator.
