Title: Should Martin be Rested v Pies and Saints
Post by: Ramps on July 19, 2010, 07:18:46 PM
Would you rest Dustin Martin for either the Pies or Saints games. Theres no point in not resting him up a little bit. I would rest him for both games!

it could be good to play him against collingwood give him a game against a very good midfield team.
not saying the saints arent good though.

He's played against the Saints so rest him in rd 21 and 22 or lighten his workload.

Play him against the Pies let him experience the big game big crowd atmosphere at the MCG on a Sat afternoon.

With Jackson and now Cotchin missing, dont think its possible to rest him now

Certainly not on Saturday but last few rounds he should be given a rest.

Agree Tucky and with Jack. With all of Foley, Cotch and Jacko out we need Dusty and Tucky to play as we have no one else. We should wait until next week when Jacko is back or round 19 to give Dusty a rest. No point resting him against the Saints as that game is in round 21 and so it would end his season as you wouldn't bring any top liner back for a meaningless game in round 22. I guess the one positive with Cotch's suspension is it gives his body a rest.

Should definately play against the skunks = invaluable big game experience, after that if he needs it meh whatever.
Agree about Cotch, even though I am seething.

Agree with comments about him playing against Collingwood. Good experience.
