PORT Adelaide coach Ken Hinkley will not court Suns stars Charlie Dixon and Harley Bennell while the Power are at the Gold Coast this weekend.
The club flew to the Gold Coast on Friday morning and has been strongly linked to Dixon in particular, who could replace Jay Schulz as the club's key forward if Schulz joins Fremantle in October.
Hinkley has a terrific relationship with many Gold Coast players and spoke to Bennell in July after photos of him allegedly using drugs were published in newspapers.
But the coach scoffed when asked if he would find time to sell the club to the talented pair over the next few days.
"Please, I get in trouble for even mentioning their names, so it's not worth me [speaking to them]," Hinkley said.
"We're not going up there to do [that], we're going up there to play footy and that's all I'm worried about."
Port's 22-point victory over Hawthorn last Friday night – its second win against the Hawks this year – highlighted the side's potential.
The Power have won five of their past seven games but their recent run of form begs the question of how things had gone so wrong at Alberton this year.
Hinkley said the season would be dissected once it finished.
"You'd like to ask the question 'why weren't we playing (earlier in the year) as well as we have in the last couple of weeks'?" he said.
"Now, you can spend all your time thinking about that, we just need to do that at the end of the season and make sure that we're perform at our best tomorrow.
"Once the season's finished we'll go through everything and look at all the things that we could have done better and perhaps things that we actually did OK."
