The Agenda Setters

[MJG14]

missed it live, whats the best way to watch it on VOD? can't see it on 7plus yet.

Tonight wasn’t as bad. Riewoldt is a grade A ****wit though can’t stand him. Show would be 100x better as Caro Kane and Hutchy. Crazy how that works…

Riewoldt saying depressed players need to harden up… Gimmie a spell. Others are fine.

Kane and Hodgey in the same room is a nightmare waiting to happen. Kane shoulda clocked him when Hodge told him to shut up.

 

[Dogs Rule]

Riewoldt the Liberal (no issues with that he can support who he wants) saw an opportunity to have a crack at a Labor premier, but he was way off this time.

Allan was answering a question on Balta, stated a view (which the majority of people including some Richmond supporters would likely support FWIW).

Ironic that Riewoldt was having a go at Allan for being soft on crime (and she has been) when on this occasion with Balta she was actually supporting a tougher stance on him.

I reckon this is a great show. Particularly Monday nights.

rehearsed and scripted squabbling....every show.

 

[pattymalone00]

is nick reiwoldt a RWNJ?

Surely he has to be

 

[Bluelegs]

Surely he has to be

Was Hardwick even alluding to Allen's record on crime? Seems like Riewoldt made a bit of a leap to get on his soapbox.

Agenda Setters has been an excellent watch especially with Nick Riewoldt adding a great counter to the tiresome, scolding wokeness of Caro - she’s been getting away with it for years. Riewoldt and Cornes create great content & work very well together. Hodge is okay but not great. The weak link across the two nights is Thomas, he is just not a media, TV talent (imo), doesn’t look that good and is not up to the analytic standard of Caro, Cornes, NR, Hutch and Hodge. The rest always add something, make strong points and often give great insights whereas Thomas never does.

Hodge and Cornes sparring is great value. Thomas has no place on this show though. Has nothing to add.

 

[Jcpdragonx]

Current state of the show is terrible, Footy Classfied is much better, more serious discussion and much better topics. Bartel, Hird both very insightful and measured, even Sloane has been ok. Like Eddie too and Tom Morris has plenty of intel. McClure no idea how he’s in the industry still.

Kane and Hodge both very good. Caro keeps playing victim and gender card which is insufferable. No idea what Dale Thomas is doing on a show like this, he kills the show. Riewoldt doesn’t really add much. Think they should ditch a player panelist and give Hodge and Kane max air time.

 

[Mighty Eagles]

Would be happy if they turfed Hutchi & Kane, but don't mind it.

 

[Danger in Texas]

Hutchy/Caro/Kane are experienced in this caper, like what they’re bringing. Hodge is fitting the show well too

Daisy is meh. Roo is grating

Wish they’d lay off the North stuff

Didn’t Nick R live in Texas for the past few years?

After all the juvenile RWNJ horsesvit being posted here, finally a sensible post laced with much needed common sense.

Caro is a woke pain in the avse, and that victimhood gender card rubbish is such a boring handbrake. Yes she gets to the heart of it with some of her comments, and I'm ok with her on the show because of that, but the price paid is that ABC worthy sense of intellectual superiority that lurks just below the surface.

Something about this show just seems slightly off. A bit like they are going for some sort of middle gound between Footy Classified and Sunday Footy Show. Occasionally it comes off and there is something funny, but 95% of the time its just fake reactions/arguments trying to look good for a 90 second clip for twitter / tik tok etc.

 

[Nepotism]

Since Wokeism became a religion, anyone who doesn't follow it is seen as the devil.

 

[PonsfordMagpie]

How long until Hodge and Cornes are punching on ?

Yes I believe his wife made him move back there for a couple of years due to (REDACTED REDACTED REDACTED)

The point of the Agenda setters is that you're supposed to have people from all different viewpoints. If you're just going to have a bunch of people who think like Caro, everyone would be agreeing to the same thing. Nick is entitled to his beliefs, and tbh, he isn't wrong in a lot of ways. Labour has always been weak on crime, and its the reason why they were thrown out in QLD. Of course it was an unneeded jab, but the whole show is an unneeded jab. Kane gives a million jabs a week, same with Caro.

as a labor member I agree with a lot of your sentiment I suppose with Nick it feels like it’s just a little too obvious and usually it’s just him being reflexive. You can tell he hasn’t thought deeply about too much and if he was actually putting forward an argument instead of always being kneejerk to someone else it would come of better.

No issues with him being a conservative, I’m probably closer to than that anything resembling a leftie but the anti-this anti-that crowd are dull compared to actually putting forward an argument.

I didn’t mind him talking about players needing to be more resilient in retrospective because at least he’s standing for something instead of against something.

arent wokies and rwnjs two opposites but two peas in a pod? Both cant live without each other

 

[peternorth]

why does Nick yell?

The sooner the better

I’ve never realised how small Daisy Thomas’ eyes are.

His eyes will close over if his head keeps getting fatter.

He's starting to look like a balloon with a face and hair drawn on it.

 

[peetoo]

The sooner the better

It could get very wearing and repetitive

The weak link across the two nights is Thomas, he is just not a media, TV talent (imo), doesn’t look that good and is not up to the analytic standard of Caro, Cornes, NR, Hutch and Hodge.

I think Daisy is a solid media talent, he's just better suited to a more comedic show, like the one he used to do with Heath Shaw.
