Doesn't this also describe Pyke perfectly though? It's not like he's proven to be a superior coach to Hinkley yet.
Pyke has yet to enthrall us all with the cliches Ken has

I'm still hopeful with Pyke
Not ready to ditch him yet

He has admitted he's on the look out for that extra mid
It's not like he's head in the sand over the team he's got

Ken's been building this team since 2013

Not to mention the coin they will need to spend to get in someone to replace Burgo.

Burgo is still there don't forget. Skyping and coming home in his holidays, he'll still be a big part of the fitness program (in spirit).

"Trust me, if you look at us at training, we're working harder on our Inside 50s than any other club, we have some real experts looking at it, trust me"

Sounds like a fool.
Sounds like deluded *******. He couldn't possibly know that.

Yes that's a good start :D
Kennedy should be back... if we resist the urge to bring back Priddis and LeCras then we will be ok. Mind you, that's probably what is most concerning! We shall see!
Please smack these unwarrantedly arrogant campaigners! They need to stop stinking up the top 8!

But what if they say "we can't sack you but we'll pay you if you go "

If they are that stuck with him it's a beautiful thing !
Maybe the Port PR machine could spin it that he's taking a step back and will still be at the club as an assistant, then get Bassett to step up but Hinkley will still be on the head coaches wage.

Reminds me when Triggy used to go on about how hard his men were working behind the scenes.
It doesn't always work like that.
You can be working really hard but on unnecessary things.

The best thing is they can't sack Kern mid contract due to receiving AFL handouts.

Pity the China Strategy has no real financial rewards and they can't control key decisions like that.

It wasnt their money they were spending on burgo anyway was it? Just need to get those same shmucks to stiff up for the next guy. Over to you Dillion.

- and China


Loved this one from Port Board


"It's very broken out there

Kens a fool. Trengove and neade up forward. One dimensional fool. Arrogant and stubborn.

But we have a clown as president. And no culture of ruthlessness. So nothing will change"

finally some are on to Kochhead

I wish I could go to their board and "like" that post but ... well you know

I now know why Port and Richmond have such a strong rivalry.
It's because they both fight for 9th position.

I reckon most of the money/subsidies/grants/resources for burgo and their fitness academy came via state govt depts., tafe, health sciences, unisa etc etc
