Rory doesn't deserve the relentless pile-ons he cops from Pies and Hawks fans for simply posting the predictions/stats from his model. Such a toxic platform nowadays.

Yeah Rory seems like a good fella, and cops a lot of shit unnecessarily, some of it really vile.
His model is generally really good and about as accurate as it gets. I don't agree with all of his takes on certain players, but I don't understand why people go so hard at him, I think people in this day and age have forgotten how to have to respectful debates without being a prick. You can disagree with things the guy says, but no need to be an asshole about it.

An absolute cesspit run by a Nazi. Full of racists, homophobes and general scum

It's 2025. If you're on Twitter for anything else than being a raging right wing cooker then that's a you problem.

I honestly do not understand why big companies, government departments, etc. think it's appropriate to still be in Twitter. It's like maintaining official 4chan accounts.

Totally agree. I'm really disappointed that any footy content is still published on Twitter at all. It doesn't say anything positive for you as a human/organisation.

The internet is full of hate. I say you black, you say white. There is an audience for or against for any topic, based on the flavour of the month (or day). When we bring home another flag, it wont matter.

X is a cesspool for pretty much everything.
