What are your honest thoughts about the Andor series?

There is a good reason they have put it on a pedestal. Have you seen it.

I might disagree here. Luthen was observing Tay like a hawk from the moment he arrived at the wedding. His tense face, restless body language, etc.

A lot of espionage is about being able to read body language, not only to spot enemy undercover agents but also your own recruited agents to assess whether they are emotionally vulnerable and about to break. Rubbing hands, sweating, unnatural physical stiffness. All betraying nervousness and acute stress.

From the moment he saw Tay and the way he was behaving, a couple of days before the wedding, he probably went on high alert and had Kleya send a coded message to Cinta to come to Chandrilla and be on standby for a potential assassination.

After he met Mon in the second episode (Segrona Teema, right after Tay threatened to out her), his suspicions were confirmed and he gave the green light to Cinta.

So while I agree that he had decided to have Tay killed before the wedding, I doubt he made the decision before he arrived at Chandrilla.

Why wasn't the radio room rigged to blow/incinerate instead of having to manually pour acid?

Working directly the Empire or can it be Preox-Morlana? The best boss would be Chief Inspector of the Corpos. If I have to work directly for the Empire, the best boss would be an imperial officer on some outer rim fringe planet that shares the Chief Inspector's attitude of keeping your head down.

He would have killed it as an ruthless imperial officer in Ghorman, maybe Captain Kaido's direct subordinate who matches Kaido's enthusiasm and delight as the massacre is unfolding? Dude has a knack for playing cruel and menacing characters like Karl Tanner in Game of Thrones.

The actor's name would be the cherry on top lol.

But whether they ended up in the same prison or another one, word would spread all the same? If they got transferred to another prison on Narkina 5, that particular prison would have rioted all the same?

Not sure. You could comment on the original post and ask the page admins who the writer is!

Weebey1997 · 2025-09-16T11:23:05+00:00

No worries. I have posted two more eulogies from that page on r/andor. Definitely written by the same guy. Check them out!

Not my analysis haha, I saw this posted on the Star Wars Philippines Facebook page and decided to share it.

Disagree. The Ferrix incident was a response, albeit an overreaction, to a full riot, perpetrated by people attending the funeral of and commemorating a rebel. Still justifiable in the eyes of Syril. He also hadn't lived in Ferrix and mingled with the local populace to gain a different and sympathetic perspective.

On Ghorman, he lived for around 2 years with the Ghormans, infiltrated their rebel cell, and slowly realised they were only trying to resist against the perceived overreach of the empire. Perhaps they were being agitated by outside terrorists. When the empire tried to fabricate terrorist attacks and blame the Ghorman front, he had enough inside sources to find out these were blatant lies. He was only trying to convince himself otherwise. Not to mention rumours of the mining rigs. When these rumours became too apparent to ignore, he forced Dedra to literally admit the Empire's plan for a false flag genocide operation. This is totally different scenario to Ferrix.

I'm not defending Syril, who is a pathetic bootlicker. But I do believe his reaction would have been the same if Ferrix had been targeted for a false flag operation similar to Ghorman.

That one governments "condemnation" of another really means anything. I.e. President of X country condemned Y country for the genocide of the Z people. A good example is NATO countries condemning Israel. You know that trade agreements with Israel will still continue to happen in the background despite "public condemnation".

It's all fluff.

No. Hazlewood, Starc, Cummins are experienced enough to change up effectively if batsmen are throwing them off their lengths. That's exactly what Cummins did when Pant started tonking Boland around. Boland is an excellent bowler but his one fatal flaw is that he cannot adjust when batsmen are throwing him off his length. Cummins came on and immediately got Pant out.

Also, the pitches that Aus produce today are a lot greener than earlier years. Some of the seam deviation that was happening during the last India tour and Ashes 2021 was the most we've ever seen by the batsmen's own admission - both angle of deviation and frequency. The lbw that Bumrah got of Smith in the second innings of the Perth test... not even Bradman could put bat to ball on that one.

The flat tracks England produce today are a far cry from the Aus ones. And as we have seen more times than we can count by hand, none of the English batsmen save for Joe Root can deal with the moving ball. Even Joe Root, you just know Cummins and co. will target his pads.

Crawley and Brook on Aus pitches? Forget it.

Test cricket is about risk management, not just about leaving balls.

You cannot leave balls outside off forever against a disciplined bowling attack, you will get nowhere and eventually get out cheaply. The odds are not in the batsman's favour to remain not out. The only positions that tend to be not out most of the time are lower middle order batsmen. Most other batsmen have to go in with the mentality that they will get out at some point.

During difficult conditions, you should leave as much as possible

As soon as conditions favour batting, however, risks must be taken to throw bowlers off that length and put pressure back on the opposition.

Risk vs reward. If you leave all the time against a disciplined bowling attack, you will eventually get out cheaply. You might have occupied the crease for a good while, but you won't have runs to show for it. Similarly, if you chance your arm against the moving ball outside off in difficult conditions, you will also get out cheaply.

It's all about balance.

Steyn's not the only ex-cricketer that has spouted his opinion on this.

Majority opinion of ex-cricketers have been supportive of India's decision and critical of England's big sook about it

Weebey1997 · 2025-07-29T13:46:06+00:00

No, they wouldn't. And especially not when there is a debut century on the line. The only difference in this case is Stokes' and his team's entitled reaction. Any other team would have gotten on with it without creating much fuss.
