@DanielCherny You make enough out of pokies - stealing off your own fans. 😱

Vic clubs should never “host”other Vic clubs interstate.

Yeah this sucks

@jarodhitchcock 😂

Didn't he try and rob Jack Nicholson in the departed?

@PeterCronau Enjoy living in a cave with candles.

We are being treated like a weak colonial territory for the plunder — foreign corporations pushing over corrupt politicians along with the local habitat.

@BeauBremner #14 🏉😱

Soo no Bo or Gross. We persist with the captain who cant kick!

@reidallaboutit9 @WestCoastEagles If we can blow the lights we're half a chance against them in the dark. 🏉🦅🤣@Narvonfella @bigerkle_27

WE HAVE (I believe) OUR FIRST EVER FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS WESTERN DERBY! 🦅 JULY 24TH. #AFL @WestCoastEagles

@EagleHuey If they killed each other would we get a supplementary pick? 🙏 @WestCoastEagles

Maybe they should stop with hangers and trying to kick the impossible goals from the pockets and put some actual work into kicking and hand balling drills which is a core problem. Why is a bloke that hasn’t played a game this year trying to take high flying marks 🤦🏽‍♂️

@afl Boys Club hard at work running it's $ protection racket. How is this mob of crooks a tax exempt not for profit? Sayers robbed taxpayers blind at PCW selling tax secrets to big end of town. @thefootyalmanac

@lozza929406 The list is shit in key position players & rucks. Yelling at Young; Brock; Bailey W; Flynn isn't going to make them better. It won't get Edwards & A Reid back from injury. It won't put muscle & experience on skinny kids like Jobe; CDT. List building & development takes years.

Monday morning I was hung yesterday - reading sooo many tweets - I agreed with 90% of them Mini needs to get his players in a room & ask them whose in …. And by in i mean give 100% every fkn week… IF not chuck them on the LTI list Enough of this shit.

@outbreezyWC 2 years ago Eagles were hopeless with no talent. Now we are hopeless but have some talent (if we can keep it). Pulling on blue & gold jumper doesn't make you AFL ready. Mistakes were made 2019-22 when we didn't plan for losing talls. Drafts & talent development take time.

Andrew McQualter is not only incompetent, he's also delusional. the Eagles have not "improved" under his tenure in any way whatsoever. if the club wasn't so pathetic and spineless, they would sack him this week.

@kofinas @pineconemacro Outstanding. Your best one on the Iran war yet. Jon took a global perspective rather than US insular & explained logic behind his views.

Bizarrely, this episode tweet has gotten no engagement at all. Twitter always throttles outside links, but this is setting records for dying on the vine. Odd. Let me know what you think of the episode. Jon's spent his entire career understanding this region and speaking with Iranian officials and key peopel within its leadership structure.

Demetri is gonna get hundreds of angry 4D statecraft emails for this one

@TheNestWCE Cole was rubbish in WAFL against Swans.

Happy for Tom Cole though, been in good form and the defence certainly demands a change.

Don’t understand how Tom Gross doesn’t get a game this week. #AFLEaglesTigers

@haroon_18 @WestCoastEagles Bazzo & Hutchinson need to do a hell of a lot more at WAFL - which is way below AFL. Gross was best against Swans - deserves another go.

@WestCoastEagles What does rhett bazzo need to do to get a game? How we dropping bo allen but not bringing in gross or hutchinson?

Added experience for Saturday 🔒 westcoasteagles.com.au/news/2008952/t…

In Australia @afl @nrl would just say player out for season with "mental health". Can't hurt sponsors or brand. Young rich footballers can bet like crazy on anything but their sport. 😱 @thefootyalmanac @ReformGambling

@SantiagoAuFund @ctindale @LukeGromen How thick I believe.

@ctindale @PBauldy @LukeGromen We have not yet even had the American Empire. Those attempting to storm the castle walls have zero understanding of how high and thick they truly are.

Which ones will be next ? OPEC is fragmenting along security, currency and buyer lines. UAE and Venezuela signal a tilt toward US liquidity and protection. The next moves come down to three levers: who guarantees security, who provides dollar funding, and who absorbs barrels at scale. Saudi sits on the fence but anchors the system let’s assume they go to US for lots of treasure and guns . Kuwait likely follows Saudi. Iraq tracks US security . ( after a tantrum ) Nigeria follows financing access. Nigerians are stable coins biggest holder . They need the swaps Libya follows whoever stabilises flows. Algeria and Iran lean the other way but one may have no choice . Congo, Guinea and Gabon move with project finance. Again like US This splits into three camps: US-linked, China-linked, and non-aligned sellers arbitraging both. Watch the signals: swap lines, security agreements, refinery offtake contracts, and currency of settlement. Who locks those first wins the barrels. China is getting outplayed here .

@SantiagoAuFund @ctindale @LukeGromen UAE is giving US $20B swap line Bessent accepted to avoid fire sale of US Treasuries & equities in GCC cash flow crisis. Always invert. 😱@yanisvaroufakis @Econoclasts @bigerkle_27

@ctindale @LukeGromen Life is about learning to live with the compromises you can't afford to live without.👍

One mistake people make with the US and China is assuming history moves in a clean handover: one empire falls, another empire rises, the baton is passed. History is much much messier than that. Empires often have close calls before they break, and often they survive them. Rome had existential shocks. Britain had moments where defeat looked possible. Russia has repeatedly faced collapse from invasion, revolution and war. They made it through, but survival always came at a price. My points is that surviving an existential threat most likely means the old order is abandoned . The empire might survive , but it is changed by the act of survival. So the US-China story may not be “America falls, China rises” transition. It most likely will be a series of close calls where both systems are forced to mutate under pressure. The real question is what each empire has to become in order to survive. My guess is these very dominant powers take each other to the very edge of existence and neither prevails ( lose lose )

@ctindale @LukeGromen As a history nerd not an economist I see the death throes of empire in the Iran war and swap line desperation. As WW1 was for the British Empire. I love that your stuff provokes me to think - if not always convince. Might diversify some gold into corn & coal for short term.👌

@PBauldy @LukeGromen I keep telling him he’s an optimist

@ctindale Are you going to tell @LukeGromen he's wrong then? 😱

@PBauldy You mistake a showdown of superpowers as one that resolves itself by ideas of rationality and orderliness .
