will be funny to see norf's list in a couple years dusty kelly big boner ben brown then 37 vfl players reckon they will still win a few here and there being carried by those 3
 
so why the **** is everyone panicking this time :drunk:
Greg Denham read too much internet over the weekend and gobbed off on SEN, no one in media land has yet picked up that lolnorf have been told to GAGF and are throwing out a last minute ( if rumours are to be believed ) bribe to try and get Dusty to change his mind and saddle up at the soon to be confimed 2017 and future 2018 wooden spooners.
 
Pretty simple - at Richmond, there'll more than likely be finals to play for at least the next couple of years. At lolnorf he's guaranteed to be able to head straight to the airport after the rd23 game for the foreseeable future...

Rd22 mate. North don't play their seniors in Rd23

Fine because he only wanted to go to one team and took unders to win flags.

He will also be hounded for media jobs when he quits because they love him for some reason
How could you not love this humble man.
It's not cheesy... really it's not.

This thread is depressing on so many levels and not related to whether or not Dustin Martin stays at Richmond.
"THE BUSINESS OF sport"
$$$$$$$
****ing agents!
AFL going free agent and every year the biggest stories aren't about which team is doing well, it's about which free agent is going where for how much!
Cricket not dominated by the strengths and weaknesses of the England and Australian teams but ***ing pay disputes.
Don't get me started on the ****ing "World Game".
 
If Dusty wants to leave, we simply have to match the offer and force Norf to trade. Why accept pick 16 as of right now, when we can get Norf to cough up top 10 picks or keep Dusty. The three options we have if Dusty accept's Norf's offer are:

Match the offer. Dusty stays.
Match the offer. Force a trade.
Don't match. Receive compo.

2 of those benefit Richmond. Why take thd 1 that doesn't.

The only reason Dusty would want to leave to go to a nothing club like Norf is because they're offering him stupid money.
 
Would argue the opposite in that North can absorb a heavily front loaded contract whilst only having to pay developing kids. But Meh i'm sure when Dusty makes his decision either club will find a way to make it work.

Gotta say I really think this has gone way too far though and i do feel for you guys having to endure this BS. Free agency is becoming a blight on the integrity of the system.

On pure trade value Dusty is easily worth two top 10 picks, whereas the crap compo system will most likely award you a single teens pick for him. Total BS!!!

North on the other hand can spend $$ to basically buy two top 10 picks worth of player for no cost in draft picks at all. What would clubs spend if they could just buy a top 10 selection, easily a mill a piece.

So whilst you guys are being asked to pay top $$ to simply retain an existing player with a measly teens pick going as compo, North get handed two top 10 picks for nothing. Any wonder North are able to add a few million on top of your offer. It's simply not right at this level.

The system is pathetic but it's what's there so im proud of North pushing it to its limits, just think it's crap from your side. AFL must change this!

"IF" Dusty does move to North I wouldn't begrudge you guys using that cash to return the favour next year by throwing it at Brown. It's a slippery slope and whilst personally i'd be wrapped to have Dusty at North I hate the system that is allowing it.
Personally I think if the Tigers have the cap space we will match and try and get value. I think we will end up matyrs for the FA clause when a restricted agent can just leave anyway if a trade deal cant be done.

The issue with this is we have a sort of moral high grouns because he is leaving purely for money and we dont have to be nice like Adelaide was with danger. Personally I think he has gone but to who I dont know.

Because if #lolnorf call our bluff our pay structure is ****ed?
