On the back of two devastating losses early in the AFL season, Port Adelaide legend Warren Tredrea believes the relationship between the Power and its coach, Ken Hinkley, is 'untenable'. 

In this episode, Tredders unpacks serious concerns for his beloved club. 

Even though we're only three rounds in to the season, Tredders says tough calls need to be made at Alberton.

He doesn't expect Hinkley to earn a contract extension after this season, so why continue?

The problem, though, is bigger than the coach.

Tredders believes there's an enormous disconnect between Port fans and its administration. Personally, he's never felt more disconnected from his club. And he says any concerns raised are falling on deaf ears.
