Ken Hinkley wins Port Adelaide coaching job
After 62 days - and contract offers to two other candidates - the Gold Coast assistant filled the vacancy at Alberton and started work on list-management this morning.
Hinkley will be formally presented as the Power coach at Alberton on Monday while his new football staff starts trade talks at Etihad Stadium in Melbourne.
Port will announce a new football structure with Hinkley as coach and Alan Richardson still in the frame as the new coaching director.
Former fitness coach Darren Burgess, who has returned to Adelaide from English Premier League club Liverpool, will regain control of the Power's fitness program.
Hinkley's appointment follows Leon Cameron turning down a contract to be the senior assistant coach at Greater Western Sydney and Rodney Eade being told by text message that the job was no longer his.
Crows coach Brenton Sanderson today described Hinkley, a former team-mate and coaching partner at Geelong, as a "great'' signing for the Power.
"He will bring them new ideas - and Port Adelaide will improve quickly,'' he said.

Port Adelaide has a new coach Ken Hinkley!
The Pope was today knocked down at the start of Christmas mass by a woman who hopped over the barriers. The woman was said to be, "Mentally unstable."Trolldor wrote:Ahh cardinal Pell. He's like a monkey after a lobotomy and three lines of cocaine.

He was a damn good player for Geelong in his time, and is well regarded as an assistant coach...
Treat him better than you've treated other coaches...

Re: The Aussie Rules thread
Cats only just scraped by! Those peskie bastards from the glitter strip fucked up my perfect round in the footy tipping.
But i must admit it is a nice feeling for Port Adelaide to be in the papers for not being complete shit or broke but winning.

Geelong also undefeated, but without a good percentage because we haven't played Melbourne yet!

The Suns actually came pretty close to Brisbane, and I also expect GWS to knock over Melbourne in next week's round...redunderthebed wrote:Or GWS and we have gold coast suns next week!JimC wrote:Good for them!redunderthebed wrote:Fuck the crows!

Next week, the Cats have to play the Swans up in Sydney, which will be a bloody big challenge...

But it's one thing to beat Gold Coast, and quite another to knock off the reigning Premiers on their home turf...
