He definitely deserves his 1 year extension. Coming into this year top 4 was the goal to earn it and he has achieved that for the first time ever. We can't set a higher bar than that.So what if we lose both of our finals games, will all the Hinkley lovers think that next years extension and possibly beyond is the right call?
Why does the new Port keep putting the cart before the horse, results first decisions second. That would be 8 years as head coach and no winning finals for 6 years.
The finals result will obviously say a lot, but personally I believe our result in 2021 will actually say more. Can he back up a season like this, is the question, or is this just a flash in a pan.
Personally I believe we'll be lucky to win 1 final, and I could see us returning straight back to mid table next year. If he can exceed either of those with finals wins and another top 4 spot, then he'll absolutely deserve another extension.
Win the flag and you can extend him for life as far as I'm concerned.
