Including your denials that he takes drugs?
Prove that he takes drugs other than " I saw him do it " or " i know a bloke who knows a bloke who knows a bloke who knows a bloke who knows a bloke who thinks he might have seen him but can't be sure because he was hammered and couldn't see straight but is convinced it was him so it must be true "
 
But what about everyone else who witnessed this, people talk you know.

There are some quotes from witnesses in the HS. Martin's reaction was obviously pretty poor.

Perhaps the woman saw a chance to lord it over a public figure; perhaps there were no real men in the restaurant; perhaps his behaviour wasn't so bad to begin with.
 
Regardless of what issues you've had with women in the past, it's completely illogical and potentially damaging to just assume from here out that all other women are lying. If this is a legitimate post, do yourself a favour and talk to a pro about it.

At $200 the half hour, what sort of loser just talks to a pro?
 
At least he wasn't drink driving putting innocent people's lives at risk.
Do you know for a fact he has never driven an automobile whilst over the limit because i bet him and a large % of other footballers have too.

Not getting caught doesn't make you any better then someone who does get caught.
 
I'll be serious for a moment...

I think this is actually bloody bad. I usually lean toward the "boys will be boys" when it comes to players playing up... few drinks or pills here, a drunken scuffle there... but seriously, in a restaurant, standing over a woman, intimidating, threatening physical abuse and slamming your hand against the wall right next to her head?

That's pretty bad stuff I reckon. If I saw some random bloke doing that I'd think "what a piece of shit", and I dare say so would most other posters regardless of which footy club they happen to support.

Intimidating and threatening to physically harm a woman is beyond the regular drunken buffoonery in my book. It's loss of control stuff. Somebody needs to give the kid a clip and tell him to pull his head in. I really don't think a bloke like Dimma Hardwick will take kindly to this.
 
If what she says is true, then he will be suspended and rightly so.
But I'm not sold on the story yet. Sure the leadership group will get to the bottom of it.

Young footy players get paid far more than most young people their age, but that cash isn't paid just for kicking a ball a few times a week. They have responsibilities to their teammates, the club and us fans. These responsibilities require some sacrifices. If Dusty wants to play football for the love of it and act like a div, he's free to get a real job and play in his local ammos. You don't have to be a role model and upstanding citizen; just keep your nose mostly out of the shit. Is that too much to ask?

No it's not but if he makes the odd mistake just like you and I he should not be put on a pedestal as if he should be better than you and I. Is he better than you because he plays football? You are saying he is.
 
Read somewhere that Martin was "standing over" the woman because she called him over while seated.

Can't believe I'm discussing this shit seriously.
That's correct, she was sitting and called him over to tell him that everyone knows who he is, he's being an idiot and that she's going to call the club and tell them. She also just happens to be a producer at Channel 7. Doesn't that ring a few bells...?
 
So tell me, why did Hodge get behind the wheel full of booze. Really please tell me, I'm sure there was a legitimate excuse.

I'm not sure what hodge has to do with this thread - you are being a bit precious - it's not as though dusty hasn't been a naughty boy, he admitted as much.
Fwiw hodge's excuse was he thought he was under the limit - hodge thought wrong and got pinged.
