Smart by Dusty and the RFC if true.

Minimizes tax for him, allowing  us to use the extra funds to target FA.

Wow

Who would have thought Dusty invested in and committed to the RFC?

And be careful what you accuse me of

Good to see you refused to answer my question which was...

What "burns" exactly?

And now you dish up "your previous views on Dusty"

What are those exactly?

Supporting him unconditionally when his Dad passed and he was grieving while others on here said he wasn't invested and we should get rid of him? Backing him in while others criticised his performances when he was dealing with something so difficult that most wouldn't understand unless you've gone through it yourself

Backed him to the hilt over the years during his contract renewals sagas?

Or being critical of him during the "chopsticks" saga not for incident itself but for being so drunk 2 weeks into pre-seaon training and saying that he got off lightly punishment wise for that?

So, yeah I get peeved when people "accuse" me of not supporting him during "chopsticks" when my single biggest issue was him being drunk, so drunk he struggled to stand up. These same people never mention the fact I paid out on the women who made the accusations, how she went to the media not the cops etc. Never once did I say he should be sacked.

So in your world if that makes me emotional and at the same time it gives you a laugh then I'll wear that

I will certainly back you in on being a big supporter of him ever since chopsticks gate. Just having a laugh WP :thumbsup

A lot of people get carried away with Dusty. Probably our best ever player and a unique individual. I think we should all just let him live and play footy

Have been a supporter of his his entire career. Best player I've seen in my lifetime. He's taken over from Maurice Snr.

But supporting doesn't mean he is immune from criticism. And he deserved (IMHO) to be criticised for being smashed as he was the night of "chopsticks gate". It was just stupid

On your last point agree 100%

WP you were 100% wrong then, and you would be best to admit it.

We all make stupid comments, and if the truth be told that wasn’t your best period by going early without knowing the facts.

Dusty is a champion. Then and now.

Some incredible irony in your comments

But I'll bite

100% wrong about what?

Was he or was he not drunk the night of chopstick gate?

So drunk that he even admitted he couldn't remember alot of the night?

Did it happen 2 weeks after the start of pre-season?

These were facts, so exactly how was that "going early"?

That is what I was critical of and IMO he should have been punished for that and it should have been a harsh one

Did I or did I not question why the woman went to the media rather the police is she was so aggrieved by what happened? Yes I did.

Did I like alot on here give an opinion on if what the woman claimed was proven to have happened? Yes I did but interestingly I have copped it time and time again for mine by you and others. But your silence in clipping posters who had similar opinions or were even more critical than me has been well defeaning.

Finally,

Did I ever, have I ever called for him to be sacked? Answer NO.
