Player Watch #4: Dustin Martin

[joelsyt]

Heaven help us if we have to play a final against either at Etihad is what I'm saying. Back to Dusty, apologies for the digression.

Won't happen. If we drew 90,000 against Norf we'll draw 92,000 against Bulldogs and almost 100,000 against Essendon, both would be played at the MCG.

Anyway regardless, there was no pressure in that game for three quarters, wasn't till the end of the third that Bulldogs applied pressure and Essendon couldn't deal. Fast, attacking football is pretty to look at but it won't hold up against Sydney, Adelaide, Geelong, Richmond, Melbourne, Western Bulldogs (at their best) who are some of the best pressure sides in the competition in the home and away season and will just build on that in finals. (I hope in Richmond's case anyway. )

I wouldn't have said this 25 - 30 years ago. Maybe/hopefully in 3 or 4 years, back to the great rivalry. Good luck in the finals.

Cotch should present Dusty his Brownlow Medal

 

[_Cayz_]

Dusty into $1.18 to win the medal and $1.01 to place.
I have never seen that before.

I put a nice sum on him at 1.80 the moment the Dangerfield tackle happened.

Easy money.

 

[Tassie27]

If Danger doesn't contest and get off you can see against Geelong in a couple of weeks them trying to get him into a wrestle and get him fined!!!!!

A team-mate needs to be on "Dusty Watch" and get him out of any potential scraps.

Going to a nail-biting few games for us watching all'n sundry try to antagonise him

Reckon the coaches might be well and truly in his ear ... and his team mates for that matter. Not sure if it could be any kind of distraction from playing his normal game but he doesn't seem to get into too much trouble on the field as a rule.

Umpires will be looking at Dusty through a hubble telescope now.

All he has to do is get a fine..

Now, the oppo are going to pester him, push him, scrag and hold him, pull him, he will lightly push back, then get fined for "engaging in a melee" and get suspended

Players don't deliberately do this just to make someone ineligible for the brownlow lol. It's like when people think shit teams playing finals teams in the last game will go out a snipe players just to injure them for finals

Watch this week the umpires let it go.

Then Dusty will get a fine and all the Veruca Salts will be happy again.

Mark floggette Allen baying for Dusty to be fined.

He will have a spotlight the size of the World's biggest lighthouse,if he breathes the wrong way,commentators will jump out of their chairs.

We don't have Nick Duigan to worry about this year

 

[Bojangles17]

And guys danger will get off

Doesn't sound to me like they will challenge given the team ethos they were sprouting , with possibility of 2, they'll begrudgingly accept 1

A mate got on at $9 in round 6 hes happy as larry goes for Hawks aswell

Just re-sign thats all i care about.

 

[BKM78]

I think people want him to win tbh.
Dusty has hit cult-like status. Kids are running around their backyards dont arguing their little brothers.
Commentators froth over his bullishness on the field.
Bruce will be salivating to have that chat at the end of the night.
Dusty is a great story, especially for diversity.
If the AFL cant see the wonders it will do to have him win it, as opposed to yet another 'down to earth, fair dinkum, private schoolboy looking' bloke then they are narrow minded knob jockeys.
Thankfully, when it comes to expansion, they are not narrow minded knob jockeys.

And they wonder why ratings are dying on SEN. Maybe it's because they are ****wits?

We need Dusty on top of his game for the rest of the year Brownlow or no Brownlow.

They really are.
Quite amusing considering Dusty is leading nearly every single other award and most likely has 6 votes from the last two games compared to Dangerfields 0.

If current form keeps up Dusty will win comfortably. People are carrying on as if Dangerfield is 10 votes clear and Dusty is going to win by default.

 

[Rubber Hips]

So hope Dusty wins the Brownlow


His speech will be one for the ages...pure gold

 

[SavDog23]

The AFL will appeal that Dusty's speech was Manifestly Inadequate and remove Dangerfields suspension and give him the Brownlow instead.

Don't argued the Mrs when we both went for the remote. Dusty's influence stretches far and wide.
