Port to offer coach Hinkley new AFL deal

Port Adelaide president David Koch says he'll look to extend the contract of coach Ken Hinkley during the AFL off-season.

Port Adelaide president David Koch wants to extend coach Ken Hinkley's contract, saying players are to blame for an excruciating exit from the AFL finals.

Hinkley, a former Gold Coast assistant coach, has been mooted as a target of the Suns, seeking a replacement for the sacked Rodney Eade.

"I don't know why there is this talk about Ken going to the Gold Coast because he has got another year at least to go on his contract. Over the summer we will talk to him about extending that," Koch told Adelaide radio station 5AA on Monday.
