Some of the comments in this thread disparaging Kenny's coaching ability are very disrespectful











to the supporters of the other 17 clubs who want him to stay on at Port as long as possible!!!

I love Ken. I'm off to Geelong next week to watch us play Port so we have a good chance of winning now with Rozee out :D

In good news, Ken has declared SPP a certain starter for the Geelong clash, after succesful ACL surgery last week.

Butters is a great player and as hard as they come but his zig zagging and going in circles with ball in hand must drive the forwards crazy.

Ken Just admitted he got it wrong, it was his decision alone. Owned it


He is simply covering for the S&C team, no coach makes the call on a players fitness, his job is to coach the team.

I still blame Ken. He makes the ultimate decision if they get picked or not. Just because the medical team may say he's ok to go, the coach can use some brains and think "hang on, we have a hammy issue here, he's having a week or two off to be safe"

Rozee's selection whilst in hindsight was poor, didn't cost Port the match last night.

Does anyone else in the league get more opportunities to dispose the ball when tackled and not get adjudicated holding the ball than JHF?

And then you've got Butters. Soon as he gets it he bounces it.
Looks like he's looking for space to run into to attract umpires attention ie.brownlow votes.
Few times last night he got it in close and a quick handball to a team mate would've released him into space but instead he just put his head down and bounced it in 2 steps.
Ken, get on it!

Kens takes the blame, but he doesn't make this decision, if the S&C team say your best player is 100% and ready to go how do you over rule that?

He should have been pinged HTB a couple of times last night too.

I only saw the 2nd half last night but I watched the Crows beat Carlton a few weeks back.
Are the crows back on track and finals bound?

No
We did the same thing last year, flashes of playing well, but not consistently.
We just dont have the list to make finals yet IMO.

You reckon Chris Scott would have overruled it?

I read now Ken is saying it was a group decision but he is taking the blame as the head coach
