Honestly I think it's largely because Rogan didn't do it for political reasons - I don't actually think he "supports" Trump in the traditional sense, just promoted him. It's all a grift, he knows it will bring in more viewers if he can align himself with that crowd. Just look at how the type of...
Addressed that in another comment. Only 16% of voters who listen to JRE (which is only a portion of that hypothetical 60 million given his international reach) are undecided. It's not 60 million potential voters, so nowhere near the potential benefit as it may seem.
Given how comfortably Trump...
He very, very clearly was supporting Trump, and has been for months. The formal endorsement (after soft-endorsing him for months) came the day before, but that was a formality.
Realistically, that's not 60 million voters though. His podcast is popular internationally, so a pretty significant amount wouldn't be eligible to vote regardless.
And according to a recent study by Edison Research, only 16% of voters who listen to Joe Rogan are actually undecided (54% Trump...
Joe Rogan actively promoted and endorsed Donald Trump. And requested the interview to be held in the last few days leading up to the election. And wouldn’t travel to Kamala.
I don’t think dedicating such significant time and resources to be interviewed by a vocal supporter of your opponent so...
I think it'd be great to have someone with a niche like you suggested, rather than another generic "here are my random thoughts on draftees regurgitated from the opinions of journalists and draft watchers I've read online".
If you did start something up with that focus on Western Jets /...
Watched quite a bit of Davis’ footage last night. The only major knock on him that I can see is his field kicking seems quite poor. Not that that should stop us drafting him - not many players are capable of having the impact he did at senior WAFL level. 21 touches and 4 goals in a final is...
Had one the other day. I get into gym, do my stretches and stuff, then head over to the leg press. There's two in my gym. One is occupied, and has been since I entered the gym (read: not actually being used, just been reserved). This woman had loaded it up with 4x 20kg plates on each side, then...
The only teams I’d accept that kind of offer from would be Richmond, North or West Coast. Otherwise, better off just taking the slider. I’m extremely doubtful it happens regardless. I imagine it ends up being one of Horton or Hannaford with our 1st
I think his lack of pace is exaggerated by some draft watchers tbh, doesn’t look an issue at all during games. His agility and acceleration is certainly no issue, and that’s far more important than straight line speed for anyone wanting to play in the middle.
Daicos and Sheezel both lack...
Have to respectfully disagree on the Lipinski comparison. Far closer to a Sheezel/Daicos type in my opinion (but a tier below those two)
See his champs highlights:
At 2:30, he sells the candy and rapidly sidesteps his opponent to get the clearance
At 2:45, he fends off his opponent and goes...
This is fair. My concern is if we’re drafting him as a midfielder, he just seems like a straight downgrade on Sanders or even West. If we see him as a forward, he tends to play more like an old school lead and mark forward who relies on his size somewhat, but lacks pace and height to play that...
Personally I don’t see him as being anywhere near as clever or quick-footed as Weightman.
Don’t think he applies much pressure either, which makes him effectively useless as a small forward in our system. If we’re drafting forwards, we need them with the view of replacing McNeil/Vandermeer, or...
Personally I’d prefer Berry at 17 and Hannaford at 25, but this is the next best thing. I’m really keen on Clarke and Urquhart with our non-top 25 picks.
Berry’s pace, crumbing and ball usage would be incredible in our side. Can play crumber while deep forward, and also push high up the ground...
If this doesn’t sell you on Hannaford, I don’t know what will. His team got smoked, but didn’t once drop his head, and played at full intensity from siren to siren. He reminds me a lot of Picken
He's also responsible for one of the greatest goals by a defender in AFL history (and some of the worst full-ground defending ever displayed, thanks to the witches hats at West Coast)
Milera (assuming his knee isn’t destroyed)
Starcevich
Rayner
TDK
Collins
Worpel
LDU
Allen
There’s a pretty decent list still (plus others I didn’t include) and most of the above would significantly improve us. TDK and Allen would only make sense if we lost a key forward, but otherwise they’re...
O'Halloran is contingent on Stringer trade happening, so nothing can be done there (if at all)
Kennedy is contingent on Macrae trade happening (which the Saints are taking the piss with their offers)
Geelong are taking the piss with their Smith offer
Really the only one I think is being held up...
Skipping out on various community events he'd committed to.
Skipping various club events for no particular reason.
Skipping the best and fairest, AND announcing his trade request to Geelong an hour before it to bring the attention back on himself.
Announcing he's "outgrown" the club.
He's...
Trading back in to take Smith seems like an infinitely worse result than just letting him go for unders tbh (or letting him walk to draft and getting nothing).
Bailey Smith is a culturally stain on our club. Management and the playing group will be glad to see the back of him after the way...
Bramble recruited as a DFA and finished 7th in the B&F
Jones recruited as a UFA a couple years back and finished 4th in the B&F
Freijah recruited with Pick 45 and already establishing himself as a best 22 player
I particularly enjoyed the light heartedness and sense of humour when he liked those homophobic social media posts condemning gay people to hell. Sounds like a top bloke
It would probably help to just log off and go do something else instead of melting about the things not happening with 3 entire days left of the trade period. Majority of trades happen on the last two days anyway
Brad Close would be ideal and probably not unrealistic. Out of contract next year, big upgrade on one of VDM or McNeil as a pressure forward and Geelong are pretty well set for forwards as it is
