i think hinkley will be looked back on by pear supporters as neale daniher was for us - he's achieved everything except for making a grand final, and united the club

Not quite yet this season may be his time at last. You never know.

A pre-emptive sacking so the year isn't filled with will they, won't they stories.

Nothing wrong with this at all. You do what you can do get under the skin of the opposition's best player.

Bernie Vince was our go to person for this and our very own supporters were absolutely fine with this.

Works both ways.

Ken did rate Gawn the most valuable player in the league.

I don't know about that.  Surely they'd be trying to impress the future coach this season.

Added:  What would be their reason for leaving anyway?  Loyalty to Kenny?

butters was very clear that one of the reasons he signed up long-term with the pear was because of loyalty towards ken

Incredible that even when Port's admin finally worked up the courage to give Hinkley the boot they still made a meal of it.

Was the meal buttered lamb?  It was buttered lamb, wasn't it!

What are they thinking?

You shouldn't do a last minute succession plan ever but certainly not when you are in contention. Port have won 17 and 16 games in the past 2 years. If Ken isn't the man to win you a flag then sack him

Succession plans have only worked twice and both times involved Paul Roos.  

This has disaster written all over it.

Ken agreed to this about as much as Malthouse did I reckon. Either be sacked now or agree to the succession plan, what's your choice?

Careful, Mr Stone; you're getting dangerously close to a NoT$NoB$ishness. And I know how you feel about that😄

Would you prefer to cop it from Kenny’s Carr Or Horse’s Cox?

Let’s see how these 2 handovers play out….

Dangerous pun territory.

As a matter of interest, Demonland's opening post is coming up blank on my screen. Is anyone else having the same problem?

    MATCH SIM: Friday 7th February 2025

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti
