Review SHOWDOWN 55

[hammo24]

If we actually did, it would be a game that makes Geelong beating Melbourne in 2007 look like a close game.

Last year and this year.

Weren’t we also the worst kicking side last year? how the **** would they reward him

 

[Port 2004]

We are a team with very little confidence or energy or spirit. We look like we're going through the motions and have done all season so far. Just a stale organisation in desperate need of change. We won't be playing finals this year.

I agree. We won’t make the eight.

Genuine question how long has chad been the forwards coach? I know the players can’t kick straight but * me we would have to be one of the worst kicking sides in the comp.

Too long has he been a dud coach.

 

[Us against the rest]

On to the Catery next week where Hinkley can catch up with his mates.

 

[Memphis]

Sack Hinkley.

 

[Duck Farmer]

Malcom McDowell

I thought the chicks with lollipops in the record store would've worn him out first.

 

[Black 18]

Pathetic club

Frauds

Start at the top - Koch. A fraud of a man that hasn't a clue and has torn the heart out of this club to replace it with his 'new age' vision of what we should be. He's insulted every single person that sacrificed so much to get us where we once were all in the name of his ego. A revolting human.

Richo - a weak man. A bully. A man so far out of his depth it's not funny. Wouldn't get a look in at any other club and knows it so won't do a thing to question anyone, other than bully staff under him. A coward, literally.

Davies - another weak, weak man. He knows what's wrong, he has for years now but he's also wrapped up in the easy cash without accountability.

Hinkley - another weak man. Weak men bring hard times and boy we're seeing that first hand. He keeps the senior players happy, they get to basically do what they want and in turn they keep any resentment from under them getting louder.

It's all you scratch my back and I'll scratch yours.

The absolute bottom of the barrel assistants we have. None would get jobs elsewhere and most were loser footballers too. It's just another in the long line of appointing guys that are thankful to even be given such a job so won't bite the hand that feeds them.

Hartlett - there's never been a faker human within the walls of the PAFC.

So is it any wonder we are now the mirror image of those that built us? Weak, scared, pretenders. Almost acting out and existence of being AFL footballers that continually ride on the coat tails of those that created what we once were.

Cripps and Parker have both been there way too long and as anyone can see the list they have built is trash. We have next to nothing coming through and they have been protected for far too long. If it wasn't for the occasional brilliance of some of our absolute top end players we'd be in serious strife - if we aren't already.

Unaccountable, zoning crap that cost us a game against a pretty average opposition tonight. And once again it took Ken ages to address anything at all because he just hasn't a clue what he's doing.

Port Adelaide Fraud Club PAFC

 

[gbear]

You must be new here.

Don’t be fooled franchise supporters are lucky to have half a brain, most of which doesn’t function!

 

[Memphis]

Couldn't kick a goal to save our lives disgraceful.

 

[Hammer#8]

Whoever is on the field is literally irrelevant. You could have the all Australian team out there and the result would be the same.

It's all loser mentality. Ken Hinkley is a loser and the people he surrounds himself with are also losers. Until all the losers are removed the story will be the same. Hinkleyball shall continue

 

[b0ydman Jr]

I feel like obi wan watching the security tapes[emoji53]

At least Obi-Wan had hope

 

[afl2004]

lol * off you dickhead, you have no right to complain. ******* enabler.

Yeah I posted it because if he's fully off then the mask is truly off and yeah that's what happens when you enable the devil

WGT backing in everyone
We are lost

 

[portforever]

*,off back to your s**t hole.

Poor game plan, always to a packed forward line, losing it on the rebound, now injuries and no replacements, staying in the eight now will be a challenge, but Ken is safe

Yet, Hinkley was considered worth of a contract extension.

He got two other extensions after that, despite having won only two Finals since 2015.

Tonight’s loss is meaningless. Everything is fine at Alberton, according to our leaders.

 

[Phar Ted]

It for me was such a boring game to watch, just never felt as if we were in the game at any stage and just going thru the motions to the obvious result.

 

[Chrizzt]

There were a few big positives:

• Butters tried his guts out and stood up in a big game
• JHF had an impact with just about every touch
• Bergman and Houston were very reliable in defence

Some almost positives:

• thought Wines battled hard, won a number of important contests but just could quite break out to influence the game
• Rioli was creative and had some influence up the ground, just needed to impact the scoreboard more

And some absolute putrid efforts:

• Dixon outright sucked. Got absolutely demolished, gave away a bunch of bloody stupid frees, and 11 of his 15 touches were turnovers! Never seen a player contribute so much to the opposition as he did
• McEntee has -5 metres gained at half time. You’re a permanent forward, how is that possible. Absolutely no impact at all, once again.
• Marshall as soft and clueless as ever
• Boak kicking 0.3 as well as losing composure and turning the ball over in our attacking half a number of times

 

[powerrrrrrrrrrrr]

Nothing makes me more angry that watching us 50 times a game mark the ball 60-75 from goal. Then watch literally every player stand absolutely still inside 50 until we just bomb it high to Charlie’s head.

It’s just beyond mind bogling that this is what we do year after year.

 

[jdeezy]

The great news is every game we play gets us closer to Hinkley's eventual death of old age, then we only have to wait a couple of years after that and we'll finally be rid of him. Happy days

Tredders was in it for himself.

 

[Rising Power]

30 point margin. It's almost as if the crows kicked 5 goals over the top of the high press from port turning the ball over at half forward. Uncanny.

 

[ibd77]

This is spot on.

Sitting there in the first quarter knowing we were cooked. Their style to choke and counter was always winning from there without some change and we didn't do anything.

Can't go out there, play an amazing first quarter and be a couple goals down at the end of it. Just disgusting coaching and team defence structure and it got what it deserved.

I been using this GIF all week to represent this likely result of this game since round 1. How on earth our club didn't see this coming and prepare accordingly. We are so poorly coached and poorly led. It's a disgrace.

I can't believe the former Port champions aren't speaking out about this. The club needs to be saved from this vanilla mediocrity. When good people stay silent and do nothing, it allows evil to rise up and take hold.

 

[Loyal2Port]

Bedwetters.
Hawks dodged a bullet by Marshall resigning. They should send us a fruit basket.
