This sentence sums us up perfectly. Schofield has a far better chance of getting a senior gig at West Coast after they sack a premiership coach than he does at Port Adelaide because we refuse to even put a blowtorch on a guy who has burned the careers of just about every player who has come under his tutelage. Wow. This club is cooked.
No. His manifesto was to kick the Port heritage to the kerb - that's a bridge too far mate.
I know. I just used that reference to try and better emphasise how much i hate David Koch.
Yeah, let's just stick with proven mediocrity. That's the Port Adelaide way now apparently.
Bass has one flags at arguably a higher level than Ken. I know somebody who know him well, from what I’ve heard Ken has the last say so until he is actually gone I think it’s just deck chair shuffle.

Didn't say that Hinkley needs to go but I wouldn't be handing the Raines over to the bloke who coached our midfield last night.

Foley vs Olsen. That would be such a South Australian thing.
Whicker can sell the food and Bev for a healthy profit.

Did you see how badly our midfield got smashed last night, or against any decent team this year? Why does our midfield coach get a free pass for that?
I love the guy, he was one of my favourite players and I was super excited to get him back here, but outside of Wines improvement, has our midfield looked any different under his watch to what it was before? I can't say it does.

This is consistent with what I’ve heard as well. He’s a pigheaded windbag who listens to no one
Fixated on bizarre s**t all the time like “terrorising Lachie Neale” instead of the broader picture
No wonder Koch loves him

It could be argued that individually every single midfielder on our list has improved and that they’ve punched above their weight for 2 years.
You think we lost yesterday because of stoppage set ups? Please.

I dont think you could say that at all. Wines hasn't punched above his weight, he's just finally living up to the potential we knew he had. Amon i'll give you.
Our midfield was destroyed in the first 15 minutes. Destroyed. Not even competitive. I posted the figures in the review thread. Yes, our inept midfield performance and the way their midfield walked it out of the midfield time and time again in the first quarter was a key reason why we lost.
How many times has our midfield been destroyed by good teams this year? And last year? Same thing happened in the last quarter of the Prelim last year. Midfield thrashed.
So why does he get a free pass?
We need some coaches that have actually had experience at successful clubs for a change. Our coaching department is severely lacking when compared to others.
Other clubs have multiple coaches with premiership experience as coaches and years in successful environments. We have none and it shows
Montgomery - at the dogs for their breakthrough with from 7th
Schofield - no AFL coaching experience beforehand
Bassett - No experience in a successful AFL coaching environment
Chad Cornes - No experience in a successful AFL coaching environment
Voss - No experience in a successful AFL coaching environment
Hinkley - Assistant at the Cats for their 07/09 premierships.
Total of 3 premierships as coaches between all our coaching team.
Compared to Demons;
Goodwin - has years under Paul Roos,
Yze - was a coach at the Hawks during their 3 peat,
Mark Williams - Premiership coach and coaches at Richmond during their premierships
And the Bulldogs;
Beveredge - Coach at the hawks during their 3 peat and obviously a premiership coach
King - st Kilda coach during the GF appearances and at Geelong for a couple premierships
Varcoe - multiple premiership player at the Pies and cats

Richmond gave Choco the ass before they won the flags.
Because it's happened, probably on average 3 times every year for the last 9 years. If it was new under Hinkley id give you that, but its not.
Schofields first move as Midfield coach was to get Boak back into the midfield because Stinkley was ruining him across half forward.
Laughed out loud when I read the last one
