This incident led to Hinkley being fined for breaching the AFL’s coaching code of conduct.

It came at the end of a knockout final played at a frightening intensity, a game stacked with controversy, with villains and with meaning. Hinkley had been under more pressure than any other coach. If they’d lost, there’s every chance it would have been his last game at Port. If he erred, and if he had his time again, it would be not to mouth off while a 300-gamer was being chaired from the field. The whole incident soured that moment. But he apologised. It wasn’t some mealy mouthed “if I have offended anybody” abomination from the Wayne Carey school of atonement. It was how an adult should apologise – immediately and unequivocally.Hinkley gets a good run from many prominent media figures.
