Adam Simpson would be a far better option. 

Agree, I'd take Simmo anyway over Ken.

    The first bit is definitely spot on.

    But his midfield has had Wines and Drew for a while. Neither fit the skills over toughness review 

    And Butterrs is as tough as you get.

    I'd put him in the skills over toughness category personally.

    Of course he’s not picking purely runners in the midfield.

    Its the game style. Over reliance on uncontested possession from half back and flicking it around in the middle. And then they bomb inside 50 anyway.

    Chris Scott broke it down.

    At the moment Luke Beveridge is on the fast track to being our new midfield coach, too.

    We'll see if he can recover in the fourth.

    Is this the Ken Hinkley that was booed off by Port fans this season? Just asking.

    And the witches hats last night, wow what a great culture.

    QD wasn't suggesting that he be the coach.

    I had assumed this thread was satire after the original post but now I'm not sure...

    Is it better or worse than the Stringer thread?

    I'll put it this way, the appalled responses in the Stringer thread restored my faith in the club's culture!

    Fantastic idea. Incredible record at Port Adelaide Power as head coach, maybe he could be president? 

    I think Emperor has a nicer ring to it

    Ken is too nice. I think that’s the problem with Richo too. We need a hard liner in the role to balance out Goodwin IMO.

    Or maybe just get a new coach

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.
