Not even Freo were stupid enough to give Fyfe that kind of money
As stated numerous times by Sterge that won't happen. It is part of the reason why North are offering so much (no trade cost). I'd imagine North would walk away if Richmond matched.At the end of the day if Dusty wants to earn 1.4m a year, then you can't blame him.
But it would be reckless for us to pay him that much when we could pay two very good players 700k each instead.
Let's just hope if he does go he does a Danger and forces North Melbourne to trade for him so we don't get stuck with some shitting mid-teens compo pick.

Important part is this:
"But it is the Tigers who are starting to get nervous because North Melbourne are believed to be on the verge of increasing their offer to Martin if they miss luring Kelly — the second of their two-pronged priority recruiting strategy. With both Richmond and North Melbourne already having offered Martin six-year deals of more than $1 million annually, as exclusively reported in The Australian in May, the Kangaroos are now preparing to negotiate their deal out to seven years as well as a pay increase to almost $1.5m a year.
The Australian believes North Melbourne officials, possibly including coach Brad Scott, are preparing as early as this weekend, to fly to New Zealand to speak to Martin’s father Shane."
Honestly, if North offer him that he should go. It's ridiculous. Still want him to stay though
Greg Denham going with the swing towards North also just now. Reckons the Tigers losing grip of him, mainly due to Norths revised offer and the fact Kelly may be at St Kilda or GWS next year
the bloke guesses non stop, knows nothing
Exactly, done the hard yards with us early in his career, why go back and do it all again.Why would he leave a team on the verge of a flag? It's insanity to think he will.

Let them have him if that's what they want to pay.Agreed.
My only worry if Norf are dumb enough for a attempted quick fix and offer 1.6 to 1.7 million a year for 7 years, we will not match. That is what they would have to offer to take him. I would be gob smacked if they offered that level of coin as that will **** them as they need to rebuild and Dusty, even though he is a elite mid is no Buddy franklin.
Still believe Dusty will stay a tiger.

Yep, I reckon it would really damage his brand/image not only to Richmond fans either.I could handle him going to Norf a lot more than most other clubs.
But it would really change peoples opinion of him in an unfortunate way.
Little Gaz he was able to mask his reason with making out that he was going up there to help a new franchise etc. Not sure how you dress this up.
I'm definitely at the point though that I would be really annoyed and disappointed in the club if we try to match if the rumor of $10m over 7 is true. That would **** a list.

Seriously how old are you, PSD is dead.PSD pick 1 means matching it doesn't matter.
They'll offer him 1.6m if they miss Dusty as well as Kelly. FOMO big time at that jointI just hope Norf keep their grubby little mitts off Jacob
