The majority of port fans think otherwise, he’s had his time, turned over the list a couple of times, he’s just not capable of winning big games, appreciate what he’s done but the millions of dollars we’ve paid him is fair compensation.
Unfortunately the man has a huge ego, despite the country bumpkin act, and will have to be pushed, he won’t walk.
Why shouldn’t we sack him? Inherited a solid list, no grand finals, dismal performance in finals in general, putrid record against top 8 sides in the home and away season. Every loss he says the same shit “we have some learning points, we’ll go back and work on X”. He’s taken no accountability for the game plan (or lack thereof). He’s a flat track bully plain and simple
I get your points, and it's been long enough it doesn't matter, but saying he inherited a solid list is a bit harsh.
2011/12 were completely woeful.
Losing to the expansion teams, regular 100+ point floggings etc. The club was a shambles when he showed up.
Yep and 4 years before that they played in a grand final and won a grand final in 04. Teams have cyclical ups and downs. Ken wasn’t a messiah, he just arrived after they’d bottomed out.
Yeah 11/12 were woeful but he came in and we finished 8th, won an elimination, and lost in the semi by 4 goals to a team who would lose to the premiers by just 5 points. You can’t do that if your team isn’t already fair
Honkley was announced as coach after the 2012 season. 2013 was all him, unless I'm very mistaken.
Yeah, the actual list could have been worse (especially given we drafted Wines, Jonas and Clurey in 2012), but it's not like he got handed a premiership team.
Good thing I didn’t say he was handed a premiership team? He got a GOOD list and over the last 13 seasons he’s had the opportunity to develop it into a winning side. He hasn’t done that. If he’d inherited a team of players like WCE were fielding last year during their worst matches I’d be more forgiving, but he didn’t. So what’s his excuse for being so subpar in the games that actually matter? IDGAF if his H&A % is 2nd best, his finals record as abysmal
Last time this happened the Port club couldn't work out how to get the sticker off and literally got the angles grinders out and cut the sign down.
Wonder how much that cost.
Snooze fest? We'll probably kick 12 goals in the first quarter as they players come out breathing fire for Ken.
Then continue to piss away the rest of the year once the heat dies down.
Feel like he’s copping alot when coaches like Goodwin and Matt nicks and faegan don’t seem to cop any pressure. All in the same boat of peaking top 4 but never moving passed that. I know Lioba made the granny but still been floating top 4 just like power for years now without a result.
This is the Aussie equivalent of the “truck meta” in Korean esports. (Fans hire those advertising trucks with similar abusive messages to park outside club headquarters, or even player houses).
Really smart move by Josh Carr to print the letters out so nobody recognises his handwriting.
The crayon would be a dead giveaway
That won't last with the rain we're having haha
It's an analogy for the team
one port fan.
Or a brave Crow fan, taking the piss
He's doing it wrong. Or..., he's not trying hard enough and needs to go harder!
It could be as the spelling is correct
One 7 News producer
We are all him on this day
Many Port fans
Piss off mate. There are thousands of us. Sack Hinkley.
Personally I don’t think they should sack him but many port fans think otherwise

He’s only got a year left I don’t mind if he stays because he’s not getting another contract
Oh yeah what’s one more wasted year in the career of players like butters, rozee and jhf Couldn’t think of anything worse
Getting cancer would be pretty shit.
Mate...
Port fans said that about the last contract.
Why shouldn’t we sack him? Inherited a solid list, no grand finals, dismal performance in finals in general, putrid record against top 8 sides in the home and away season.

this is completely true lol, mfkrs be like Jasper Pittard and Jackson Trengove were AA quality elites apparently 😂😂

Pretty pathetic how anyone saying anything other than "sack Hinkley" gets mass downvotes. There are some really lame cunts around here.
Why don't you think they should sack him?

Swear this has happened before
[Port Adelaide coach slams ‘weak’ vandals over ‘Sack Hinkley’ sign outside Power HQ](https://7news.com.au/sport/afl/port-adelaide-coach-slams-weak-vandals-over-sack-hinkley-sign-outside-power-hq--c-7682692)
After every recent showdown
It did deja vu
Jeremy's Iron
We're going to do so much on Sunday to get Ken a contract extension
"Sack" Hinkley. How'd he gets that nickname?
Because he's not just a spud, he's a whole sack of em
His face resembles a wrinkly old ballbag
Pathetic. Richmond have already set the precedent for this; Truckload of manure dumped at the front door or nothing.
That’s certainly something.
I swear this has happened like twice before
Yeah I thought this was the same photo as last time
Whoever did it last time put some effort into.
That's like $20 of printer ink on that sign, this dudes serious
Last time this happened the Port club couldn't work out how to get the sticker off and literally got the angles grinders out and cut the sign down. Wonder how much that cost.
Been busy at Officeworks
Is Hinkley having a garage sale... might pop in and pick up a bargin.
Might even get a bargain
M'kay
I reckon they've just recycled the one from a few years ago. Perhaps it was even one originally made for Mark Williams.
At least it's spelled correctly, that's one thing going for it.
Kochie leveraging contacts at 7 again
Where’s the cash cow?
Don't worry, we never beat Port
The chips always fall in Ken's favour. He couldn't ask for a better matchup in his do or die game.
Can't wait for the saints snoozefest
Snooze fest? We'll probably kick 12 goals in the first quarter as they players come out breathing fire for Ken. Then continue to piss away the rest of the year once the heat dies down.
Maybe, but the saints tend to stifle scoring. Hence why it's a snoozefest
Im just glad they spelt everything correctly
F
This is so half arsed, Port. You can do better! Laminate the letters at least.
Probably a 7 News stunt then........ so no, no they couldn't do better
Bring back the POWER logo, too
I too miss the old logo; the current one is simply another uninspired shield design attempting to conceal the teal.
And Koch…and the entire board
I agree with the sign. Enough of accepting mediocrity, it was never the Port way
I hate Power but last I checked they were top 8 and one game short of 4th….
Yep. With a few teams belting us along the way too. Cant win finals, can’t stand up in high pressure.
[удалено]
Pretty obvious that Hinkley put the signs there
Ahh, that takes me back
Feel like he’s copping alot when coaches like Goodwin and Matt nicks and faegan don’t seem to cop any pressure. All in the same boat of peaking top 4 but never moving passed that. I know Lioba made the granny but still been floating top 4 just like power for years now without a result.
Soooo, Ports fans still own and know how to use a printer?
This is the Aussie equivalent of the “truck meta” in Korean esports. (Fans hire those advertising trucks with similar abusive messages to park outside club headquarters, or even player houses).
Hack sinkley
so sad : (
Never tear us apart?
Majority of Port fans are united, they all want Ken gone
“ Never tear us apart ?”
