A few early loses and the wolves will be out for an early handover. These things rarely work well.
Hinkley will be gone by mid season.

Carr to take the positives that Ken brought to the table, adds some of his own ideas and they finish off the jigsaw puzzle while the have all of the pieces.

If we make the finals this year with the draw we have then we will go deep because we must be at the top of game to get there.

I hope the faithful don't berate him on the way out, it's not his fault that he kept getting employed, he has a genuine love for the place and players.

If anyone of us was getting paid a shitload and not hitting our KPI's I'm sure that we'd continue in our role until being advised to move on.

End of season. There is no way the Port/Ken spin will allow it any other way.

absolutely.
Would a club want their confirmed senior coach successor come in at that record and potentially start with a bunch of losses?

Hinkley has proven he's capable of leading teams to finals action and with the talent at his disposal this year we should again play finals.

I can't see him being gone before we win / lose our last game of the year whenever that may be.
If you want to go quickly, go alone.

I thought we over-achieved last season, at the end of the day our fixture is ranked as the 2nd most difficult so it will be a challenge.

I've been getting told we over achieved for about 10 years.

They might no have any other option, I think Mali would like them to so another operator can buy them out and keep the place operating. Its obviously unsustainable with Gupta running it.

Not sure how you can hear him when he's chinning Hinkley's balls.

Any update on Ratagolea knee? Meniscus tear can be 6 weeks or 16 weeks like Thilthorpe.
