Port Adelaide<\/a> coach Ken Hinkley<\/a> says the club "won't accept" young star Jason Horne-Francis<\/a>' outbursts during the club's 14-point loss to the Suns on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Horne-Francis didn't get a touch in the first quarter and managed just nine disposals for the game.<\/p>\n

The 21-year-old also gave away four free kicks, headlined by a 50-metre penalty in the second term that gave the Suns a goal courtesy of Sam Flanders.<\/p>\n

Hinkley didn't hold back in his analysis of the young midfielder's game, especially after he was moved to the forward line in the second half to attempt to revive him.\ufeff<\/p>\n

"We won't accept that it is OK," Hinkley said post match.<\/p>\n

\"Jason<\/p>\n

"Jason is a young player and he's learning all the time and he's got to be better than he was today in some moments, there's no doubt about that.<\/p>\n

"He's learned a lot, but he still has a lot more to learn and that's clear when you've got a young player who is developing. He's an aggressive player who seeks out body contact and once the oppo get a look at it, they tend to come after you a little bit more.<\/p>\n

"Jason is learning to deal with that, and he has to get better."<\/p>\n

In other bad news for Port, key forward Todd Marshall suffered a horrific hip injury thanks to friendly fire.<\/p>\n

\"Ken<\/p>\n

Marshall's teammate, Charlie Dixon, fell on top of him \ufeffand stretched his leg backwards, in painful scenes.<\/p>\n

The forward lay on the turf in agony, before being removed for the rest of the match.\ufeff<\/p>\n

"A man of that size coming over the top of you and stretching you in areas you don't want to be stretched, it will hurt a lot," Jimmy Bartel said on Nine's Footy Furnace<\/em> on Sunday night.<\/p>\n

Hinkley said the the club was awaiting scans to reveal the extent of damage.\ufeff<\/p>\n

\"Port<\/p>\n

"Charlie really landed on top of his leg and really jammed his hip down, which he has had history with over the last couple of years," Hinkley said.<\/p>\n

"We will have to wait and scan that. It looks like he has hurt him a little bit.<\/p>\n

"I've been around a long time and seen lots of strange things happen on the footy field and that's another one to add to the collection."<\/p>\n

The Power also lost Lachie Jones to concussion, after Gold Coast's Alex Davies' hip collided with the defender's head early in the match.<\/p>\n

Jones was subbed immediately, citing concussion symptoms, meaning he'll miss at least a week.\ufeff<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
