Martin played 22 games in his fifth season of AFL to take his career tally past the ton to 108. He was rewarded with third place in this year's B&F.
His best returns this season were career high 36 disposals against both GWS (R10) and Sydney (R14). Dusty also had 30+ possessions against Brisbane (R5) and Melbourne (R9). His best goal return was 4 goals (& 28 disposals) in our R12 defeat to North although the goals Dusty will be most remembered for in 2014 will be the sealers he kicked against Carlton (R2), Adelaide (R21) and Sydney (R23).

So how did we all rate Dusty's year?
-
gun season from the Sherman tank of the AFL
-
8 from me, just that incy step from elite in my book.

8, our most effective player this year. Its funny that with all the criticism he attracts that he has managed improvement in each of his seasons.
-
Our best player by a mile this year IMO.
Like every footy club, coaches have their favorites..should have won the B&F
Recon he might win a Brownlow one day. Would only need 8 really good games which he will do consistently in seasons to come.
Thank God for Dusty.

Exactly richo! What's to criticise? Not much
Season 9/10. Faultless year. Matchwinners are few and far between hope Dan doesn't stuff this up and give this guy issues with his coming contract

Absolutely
Still staggered he didn't win the B&F, should have, no ifs buts or maybes
Brilliant year. Would argue he is out important player
Re-sign now,

Re-sign now,
agree with both of you - was easily our best this season and has been jibbed out of 2 B&F's imo, should have won it last year too
-
8 from me, just that incy step from elite in my book.
And that inch step is one of continual consistency.
I wanna be his stepdad.
8/10 yet better than Cotchin,
the little suck.
-
Great year. Just marked him down because I want his defensive intensity to go up 5 notches
-
In a word , breathtaking :bow
-
Big Duzza :bow

Rate his season as a 7. But a really solid 7, would love to give him a 9 actually but I wont. His highlight reel looks like a 9, but his season overall was a 7. I kept him at 7 because I thought he had some quiet games & still had quiet periods even within his good games. Overall i am wrapped with Dusty's season though, kicking the winner 3 times in a season & 2 of them at critical times in late season games puts him in the star category for mine. I see a bit of Lethal Leigh in him, especially around goals, he has the potential to be that good.
-
Most exciting player at Richmond. His moments of brilliance is why we couldn't let him go last year. Funny how some people wanted him gone 12 months ago :huh
Does anyone have highlights of this goals?
v Carlton R1
v North Melbourne (1st Half) R12
v Port Adelaide R17
v Essendon R20
v Adelaide R21
v Sydney R23
Or maybe all his goals of 2014?
8/10 - consistent season, kicking important goals!
Deserved top 2 finish!

Faded towards the end of the season.
Was carrying an injury, right?
8/10 for me.
Would have been a Monty for B&F if he didn't fade out that little bit.
-
7.5
Was headed for a 9 as start to the year was excellent but his season tailed off.
-

You are stuffing kidding, I suppose you will give Edwards an 8.5.
Martin was a 9 easy, bordering on a 9.2 at least...how many games did he win off his own boot!!!!

Hate to bring this up but there is a whole tread named 'trade week rumours and innuendo' And 99% of them are unsubstantiated.. I never really understood, what is the difference.

There's a difference between saying a player is going to change clubs to saying a player is involved in illegal activity. The latter puts OER at legal risk of being sued for defamation.

You cannot be sued for defamation if it is true though.... :whistle

There is a massive difference
That you have to even ask is a concern
When someone posts a rumour about allegedly ILLEGAL behaviour, or anything else that can be classed as defaming someone because it is blatantly untrue then for legal reasons we have no choice but to remove it.
For those who think we overreact to these things. We had to deal with a huge issue 18+ months ago because of something that had been posted here years ago. It took weeks to sort out. It wasn't pleasant, this site was almost closed down.
I am not kidding when I say Lawyers trawl through footy forums like this one to find possibly defamation cases. What happened to us proved it
Can we make it any clearer?
-

No you cannot but that's not the issue here.
Whistle all you like but...
See my previous reply
Unless you can prove it, guarantee it will stand up legally are prepared to publicly name yourself (not via a Internet nic name) then it is nothing more than a rumour that if posted here opens this site up to legal ramifications
That is the legal advise we have received and that is the approach we take. Have from day one and it won't be changing

Sorry WP. I was just yanking your chain.
Even if it was true, you guys wouldn't know it was, so couldn't allow it to be posted......

Most consistent player all year. Ws great when we were garbage at the start and was still great in the second half of the year when the team's fortuned changed/
Second year in a row he has been robbed of Jack.
I still love Cotch though. ;D

My apologies too
It's the one thing that gets me really fired up as a mod. I get frustrated having to explain this legal stuff over and over again.
