Opinion Sack Hinkley 6 - Kochblocked

[Harlott]

At least we would never lose another game.

Frankly we would win every game if the score was kept fairly.

And we’d easily have the biggest crowds in the AFL.

 

[edgie]

I wish GM was run by Ken Hinkley.

Holden would still be making cars, because stuff like sales, a quality product, and a satisfied customer base don't matter.

At least he call the umpires out

 

[edgie]

Spawning 'The Summer of George' was his greatest achievement.

Good old Port board getting ahead of itself because we snagged a handful of injury prone underachieving plodders that looked good on paper fantasy land.

“No other club is as beholden to its supporters as Port Adelaide”

Yes. Don’t you ever forget it.

Right! They said it like it was something to be ashamed of.

It should be what every single club is striving for.

Yet here we are in a corporate, greed filled, boys club, pissant, small dick syndrome, white ant, tinpot, so called professional sporting league that stopped giving a **** what the custodians of the game (the fans) thought of, cared about, or wanted for this great game and their club.

I'm going back to local footy.

I wouldn't be fooled by the tough talk that comes out from Kochie every year around the same time.

1. The Board value stability above all else - given the clubs position; they don't want to have to risk the highs and lows of an unknown quantity.
2. The Board don't want to be seen as pandering to what they claim to be a vocal minority (whether they are out of touch with the general supporter base is another argument to be had)
3. Ken still has the support of the playing group
4. The ball is in Ken's court if he wants to call time.
5. They'll throw some of the assistants under the bus and classify that as change.

So we are pretty much run by cowards that have no right being associated with the port Adelaide football club.

If these are the type of people running the club, no wonder we haven’t won a premiership

...
3. Ken still has the support of the playing group
...

It's ****ing unbelievable that people still believe the opposite of this.

We've become everything we used to laugh at and look down on. So sad.

By AFL plants who see football clubs as a business above all else.

 

[port_adelaide_1870]

I’d rather a club be ruthless and fall on its sword then to accept constant mediocrity

 

[edgie]

We've become everything we used to laugh at and look down on. So sad.

WE'VE BECOME WORSE!

ST KILDA, FREMANTLE, GOLD COAST, GWS, ETC ETC HAVE LITERALLY SHOWN MORE APPETITE FOR CHANGE AND SUCCESS

 

[MrPlow]

Port Adelaide is dead.

 

[TazD]

The question I'm asking myself is do I cut my losses now or do I triple down on the toxicity for next year?

If that's the case then **** them all I hope the place burns to the ground.

 

[port_adelaide_1870]

I don’t give a crap how the players feel. I care how the players perform

 

[edgie]

I'd rather we wind up.

I'd go support Brisbane or Saints on the telly, and Wally the welder, Peter the plumber, and Sam the shop worker, on the weekend in the SANFL.

 

[edgie]

Careful, Dixon's feelings.

Could this be another mark Williams you were wrong moments when we win the flag next year?

 

[edgie]

**** I'm melting hard this morning.

Vintage Natalie Portman nudes couldn't harden me up.

 

[Waspy79]

Kens main personality disorder is far too common. Selfishness.

NO DEAL X

 

[PatientMental]

Could this be another mark Williams you were wrong moments when we win the flag next year?

6th year vs 11th year.

Not even comparable, in anyway.

 

[MrPlow]

Ken still has the support of the players?

Go ask our own captain what he thinks of Hinkley behind closed doors

But maybe that’s the issue, all of the dissenters at the club are too cowardly to speak up

F*** this. Hope Essendon bury us and the Crows drive the nail in the coffin.

 

[JimmyBC]

The problem with Koch is he doesn't understand elite sport, stability in the business world is a completely different thing than the metrics for a football club.

 

[chachi11]

It's not happening, the club is soft.

I enjoy my local footy club where my Daughter plays.
I'm not wasting my time on this club or the AFL.
