Not Hinkley's fault. Can't blame him for the players not turning up. Only in the 8 cos of our soft draw

Agree.
And brings in a player who hasn't played at this level for 2 years........ in a showdown of all games.

Ken's in trouble. He should have been given the arse the end of last year. Port Adelaide at the end of 2014 looked like they were on their way to many GF's. What has gone on since is a disgrace. Yes they will play finals but serving up shit like that to anyone with an ounce of ticker is embarressing. Wasting talent at Port.

and then proceeded to play him woefully out of position.

Monfries will cop a lot of heat but in honesty there wasn't much he could have done.

Yep, spot on LK

The list isnt 100pts worse than Adelaide's. It really isnt.

Our structure, method, system and overall coaching... is.

Scary thing if Adelaide kicked semi straight. Could have been 140 points.

Biggest thing for me today is that Port did not at all control the game, even for a 5 minute period. It was a carbon copy of Adelaide vs Fremantle earlier this year. Both games played in pretty tough conditions. The amount of times players both clear and under pressure that turned the footy over with a 5 metre handball was to be honest below SANFL standard. The players shit the bed as their structures were destroyed. Ken should be shot.

How can the players not show up for a showdown?

This weekend has exposed both Port and Geelong as having a very average next tier of players behind the handfull of stars.
