Team Captain
He did because Ken believes that being competitive is enough. I don't think he gets winning. Maybe it comes from his playing daysHe didn't really say that, did he?
Please, tell me he didn't.

Ken on 360 - 'We have a great recent history against West Coast'.
'Great' would be one way of describing it I guess.
We had pressure from underneath that ensured that the players selected would perform in 2014, because what Ken told the players was 'you don't defend, you don't play'.
But what happened was that as Hinkley became acutely aware that the list wasn't actually good enough, and we started getting rid of depth players and not replenishing them because we were trading for Ryder and Dixon, the players started to realise that he was full of s**t and didn't actually have the balls to drop them if they ****** up. Guys like Colquhoun, Moore, Newton et al weren't great players by any stretch, but at the time their presence forced the players who were good to pick up their socks just through the mere threat of their selection.
It's no surprise that in 2014 and 2017 the Magpies had their best years in the SANFL for awhile. It's all about cause and effect.
That's why the answer to getting players to comply is simple - if you don't like what they are putting out in terms of tackle numbers and pressure, don't give them a second chance. Drop them straight away. They'll learn soon enough not to **** around.
Actually follow through with 'you don't defend, you don't play'.
I thought you had overlooked 2017. I think 2017 was different. I do believe that Chad was the reason the Magpies did well and not just because he was the coach but because Chad didn't tolerate continual skill errors and lack if effort to make every disputed ball a contest. In 2014 I think not only was Hocking competent but KT and the club were hitting the message that they wanted sanfl success and add to that the hype/excitement from a positive Hinkley with the afl side it cultivated a good season.
Your last sentence is interesting. I believe Hinkley tolerates skill errors and efforts with his actions but he's inconsistent as he didn't tolerate it from Eddy.
The things you do.
Not quite. Primus didn’t go on AFL 360 on the Monday night afterwards. Come Monday and Primus was ... gone.The Richmond loss is starting to have that Primus loss to GWS feel about it.

What he needed to say was "I made it easy for Grimes to take all those marks!"
Hence why everyone is fed up with Ken. If this group has the success of Geelong and Hawthorn and had earnt that trust, no problem, back them in and let them go. This group hasn't, why would they? Near enough is good enough for Hinkley. We all know it now, the body of work is there for all to see, one f!#$ing preliminary final since 2013 is appalling. And I sincerely hope he didn't say on live television we have a good recent record against West Coast.Eddy didn't have credits in the bank. The reason why the players love Ken is because he's incredibly loyal to them once they've gained his trust.
I like Schoey but it was his midfield who let us down against RichmondListening to Schoey on 5aa ...
****sake
He should be coaching this club!
I had that feeling with this.

As pissed off and as frustrating as the loss was on Saturday, its not a Primus-GWS loss yet. That game we lost to basically to an U/19 side and the wheels had fallen off after a promising start to the season and as injuries mounted it meant we had no leaders.The Richmond loss is starting to have that Primus loss to GWS feel about it.
Never was defendable. We've been paddling upstream ever since.Getting hard to defend drafting him over Grundy TBH
Hinkley is the man in charge but the assistants need to take some responsibility too, but the general consensus here is our new assistants are fantastic but we've plummeted even further this year.

And the plummet will continue for as long as you let Hinkley off the hook. He is, as you say, the man in charge. So what’s the value in going light on him and giving him a way out?Hinkley is the man in charge but the assistants need to take some responsibility too, but the general consensus here is our new assistants are fantastic but we've plummeted even further this year.

He developed a strategy to survive just like most incompetent workers do. Done a fine job in that regard.Get the feeling with KH it's similar to the work place, where the boss can't separate from the workers but then leads to him not being the boss either, so that could by why players love him. He cuts them so much slack like Wines doing his thing when the players are back for a preseason, Dixon drag racing his project car while in rehab. All these little things left unchecked promote undisciplined behavior on and off field. Instead of being the boss the players want to play for, he has become the players mate.

Hinkley is staying until his contract is up because we can not afford to pay him out. Simple as that.I said it straight after the game,
He is gone. It's only a matter of time.
These idiots don't have clue why (judging by Matthew's reaction) but boy a rude awakening is coming swiftly
