Player Watch #4 Dustin Martin

[JackNah_8]

I think there is some back door deals taking place between Carr / GC / AFL

Dusty wont play for less than $700k x 2 years
AFL would love to have Dusty on the GC for the AFL footy profile to increase
GC/Dimma would want a champ like Dusty around the kids to get confidence from as well as his brilliance

GC pay $400k
AFL pay $300k marketing allowance
Dusty gets $700k for 2 years living beautifully in mermaid beach

Richmond get end of 2nd round compo

Martin hates PR and media works so If he ends up at the suns, he'd be expected to be the new face of Suns. He has avoided media attention while at Richmond, why would he begin now.

 

[tugga]

Isn’t he an unrestricted free agent anyway?
Why are these muppets even saying trade?

Gold Coast don’t need to give us shit

Yes.
It's mind boggling how people don't know this.
Compensation would be on the size and duration of his new contract, which would be two years at not a huge amount. We wouldn't get much back for him.

May as well front load it to $1.2Million year 1. Guarantee us a 1st rounder.

At a complete guess probably end of 2nd round if we are lucky if it’s only two years
Can’t see the Gold Coast paying him over 750k a season with their cap being tight to the point of having to salary cap dump only like a year ago and seemingly looking for a running half back as well that will be the main priority in terms of any extra cap space

Probably means we get like pick 40 for him

sounds about right.

Taking the pi55 of course, but the AFL run like Faulty Towers these days, so how about Dusty to Gold Coast and we get Brandon Ellis

The CFL will us as usual no doubt.

 

[tigers12]

I will be pretty disappointed if dusty goes to suns all the media muppets pushing for it I really do believe it will tarnish his career I know he doesn’t owe us anything but hard **** came up with the Richmond man mono now he is begging him to go to the plastics

 

[Moonatic77]

I don't believe he's going. I think it's bullshite

 

[THE_GUN]

Its more than just money

Think Tyrone Vickery the hawks had to extend the length of the contract for Richmond to get #29 (shai bolton)
I think the min free agent deal would have to be 2 years

 

[smasha]

Pick 40 for Dusty?
I'm done.
A filthy rotten corrupt league.
Uneffinbelievable.

 

[Rubber Hips]

So ….all the talk of Dusty leaving is based on assertions from David Schwarz


ok…whatever

 

[THE_GUN]

I actually think it will happen

way too much smoke around this

 

[TigFan1966]

If he does leave that frees up some salary cap?

 

[THE_GUN]

Dimma just said he wants Dustin Martin

 

[TigFan1966]

Dimma just said he wants Dustin Martin

Tell him he's dreaming! My wife says he may see Dimma as a father figure since his own dad passed.

 

[Groupie_]

stupid of the club to not cash in last year

 

[JackNah_8]

So ….all the talk of Dusty leaving is based on assertions from David Schwarz


ok…whatever

Now Hardwick is talking about it

 

[kozi]

Dimma just said he wants Dustin Martin

Dumma wants anything from us he can get his hands on. Dusty, Rioli, the stapler from reception anything

 

[Phar Ace]

Dumma wants anything from us he can get his hands on. ....

And didn't he get his hands on some stuff too!

 

[tropicaltiger]

I don't believe he's going. I think it's bullshite

yep it's just click bait and rage bait

 

[Tiger V]

So ….all the talk of Dusty leaving is based on assertions from David Schwarz


ok…whatever

just another Muppet hitching a ride on the GOAT's coat tails.

Don't forget that Fev was weighing in a few weeks ago

 

[Tiger Toffee]

Remember when Dusty was going to Sydney a couple years back, all the talk when we played the swans at the SCG was that Dusty was looking at his new home cause he wanted to get out of Melbourne and go live in Sydney.

If Dimma was coaching Adelaide guess where the media would be saying Dusty was heading for.

I have never in my life seen the media try and hound a player out of a club like they have Dusty, how come Hawkins isn't leaving, what about DeGoey, is Merrett leaving the druggies, what about the Bont where is he headed too.....and so on.

 

[DickieKnee]

Don't forget that Fev was weighing in a few weeks ago

Well that seals it. Fev would know.
