Toast Ken Hinkley - AFL Life Membership

[Ford Fairlane]

I guess this is what the mouse sneaking through the rattlesnake pit feels like.

Anyway here goes, congratulations to Ken Hinkley for achieving AFL life membership.

I know the temptation is great for some of you, but stick to the maxim, if you have nothing good to say, say nothing.

Ken Hinkley on Sunday achieves AFL Life Membership after clocking up 300 games as a player and coach.

He had 132 VFL/AFL games as a player (11 at Fitzroy in 1987-88 and 121 at Geelong from 1989-95) to go with three state games for Victoria.

Since then Hinkley has coached Port Adelaide on 164 occasions for 92 wins. His 56.33% home and away winning record plus 50% finals record in six finals is the best of any of Port Adelaide’s AFL coaches, other than the late Phil Walsh’s one win in one game.

The article includes recollections from from Malcolm Blight about Ken Hinkley.

Congrats to Ken it's a solid achievement.

Did good things at Port in 2013 and 2014 and that shouldn't be forgotten.

Well he is officially a port man now.
No longer the 'Geelong guy' coaching us.

R22 2001, the week Fos Williams died. We beat West Coast by over 100 points.

Yet everything after that seems to be by a few around here.

This is a toast thread. Started golden brown, now developing a thick, black crust.

So he gets 2 grand final tickets free, each year with AFL Life membership. Will he take Matt White with him?

 

[Schulzenfest]

Congrats on the big 300 Kenny. About time to take up a career in firefighting I reckon.

 

[Interstater]

Tredders would have to coach us for 16 games and he would get life membership.
