News Chris Davies departs for Carlton

[agmsy]

Hardwick wont be taking Neil Balme with him if he leaves Richmond.

He probably won't be taking Pat Riley or Alex Ferguson or Ron Dennis with him, either. Damn. I guess that rules out every possible candidate.

 

[PowerLil]

Is Davies being sought after for a role within the AFL? I believe the key to getting rid of Hinkley is closely linked to bro-handshaking best mate Chris Davies moving on.

 

[El Zorro]

Bumping this in light of the concussion debacle and CD being the guy "directly negotiating" KH's extension. It's clear that he's as much of the problem as Koch and Richardson. Massive clean out needed at the club, including CD.

 

[snozulu]

All of these so called leaders of Port are all too matesy to make hard calls so they just keep re signing each other to keep each other safe and living the easy life.

 

[ibd77]

He is usually pretty rock solid with a decent poker face during press conferences. However he looks like someone has just got busted doing something that they shouldn't have.

 

[PAFC66]

I personally don't mind Davies. He'd make a great politician. He doesn't make the calls. He's got the worst job in the world. Middle management.

 

[PowerLil]

Don't agree the he's the middle man. He's front and centre. He's known full well the dissatisfaction with Hinkley for a very long period of time. If he's exclusively negotiating a contract with Hinkley, that tells me everything I need to know. Get rid of this snake.

 

[Doctor Feel]

This guy is in actuality probably more responsible for this mess than anyone else. He would be the one reporting to the CEO etc. about how well ken is doing his finger wiggle.

Hinkley's personal ****ing bodyguard. Absolutely complicit, **** him off.

 

[TazD]

God you people are cruel. What choice does CD have? It's either work as Ken Hinkleys Footy Manager or go onto the DSP.

When you tie yourself to a regime it has consequences.

Once the trust in the regime is vanished, so it's the trust on you...

 

[Lagooner]

Sack everyone who is part of the dog squad.

 

[Peninsula Boy]

I am a bit of a fan of Chris Davies but he and the rest of them have been there far too long with zero results.

The issue I have with him and the others, Koch, Hinkley, Richardson, Bassett, Cornes, Jonas, Boak, etc is that they don't seem to have any dignity to remove themselves being such long time losers.

 

[Hate the pear]

Everytime he opens his mouth it feels like he is lying/ covering up something, just looks untrustworthy

Thanks for your input "Hate the pear"

 

[PA88]

He has a paid position. He toes the line. He can be removed. The fact that he appears to be another Hinkley hugger makes it worse.

It's the board of directors that's the issue. They've made the football department as unaccountable as they are themselves.

Just like Steven Trigg and Tex Walker.

Yeah, it starts at the top.

Really the majority of the ire of the Port Adelaide fan base should firmly squared at Koch and the board.

A winning culture of accountability starts at the top and trickles down but unfortunately so does selfishness and mediocrity and hanging on to power.

It is not the Port Adelaide Football Club that is the problem, just the people who happen to be in there. Once they leave and we get a real Port person back n there, we will be back.

Vote 1 Tredders.

The longer they're there and the current culture is allowed to persist the harder it will be to turn the ship around.

At a certain point this will become what the Port Adelaide Football Club is.

Yeah, it is tough but you just need one visionary. Just one visionary. A Fos Williams, a Jack Cahill, a Bob McLean. Just as one man has turned this club into a laughing stock, one man can bring us back to greatness. We should never forget that.

Think Ninthmond. A terrible administration of culture of blokes who only cared about themselves and their power. A premiership in 1980. A losing grand final in 1982. A very long draught until Brendon Gale comes back and completely changes the culture, has a vision and implements it as best he can. He loves the club and makes the decisions that need to be made, not for himself because he's awesome but for the good of the club. 3 premierships in 4 years.

We just need one bloke with a love of the club who wants the Creed to live again at the Port Adelaide Football Club.

 

[Enviable Tradition]

If Richmond can turn it around Port can.

Sack bald men

It's a sign of how cooked I am on this club that I'm longing to see hair in high positions.
