Dustin Martin [merged]

[WilliamPowell]

He's cooked, his skills have dropped to sub VFL level level. Used to hit targets and goals with is eyes closed.. no longer, more often misses targets than hits them. F his 300, doesn't deserve a game ATM. Reminded me of Dangerfield today, got plenty of ball but snuffed most kicks

You trumpeted your "return" to this site stating the Me OE and myself would probably remember you.

After the you post this dribble it is as clear as day who you are. 

Your lack of respect to a champion of our footy club sums you up, you should be embarrassed. But no, you'll beat your chest and boast that your right and are allowed an opinion. We're all entitled to an opinion but on this you are wrong. You're not even a keyboard warrior.

Good onya WP. Im more critical than most on all things Richmond.
Saying that this bloke has earned more than respect. He is one of not a lot of many out and out champs not just us but the game.

Yes Dusty is in decline and yes he maybe should retire but even in real decline he is better than so many in the comp.

Our challenge is to find a way to keep him at the club and help him mentor going forward.
He has more than most imo to offer in this way if his heart is in it to do so.

No keyboard warrior here.. that's a very confusing post. Are you feeling ok?.

Dustin Martin was the best player I have ever seen play.. he was ... But he no longer is the same..
My God, so many of you have so many issues on here.

Oh yes his last legacy as a mentor, can do that sitting on the bench as the sub. 🤣
Great teams know when a players time is up, even for champions

This bloke should retire, end of convo.


Been great, legendary, but it's time.

Can you list out the number of players who you believe are in worse form then dusty? Because I can honestly list more than half the team.

Really baffles me that people are on here every week calling for him to retire. At the very least he gives tiger fans a reason to go to the footy very similar to how we atleast had Richo when we were the absolute pits.

I can, but it doesn't change what should be out strategy moving forward.

We have several blokes that need to retire in the coming 18m to make way for the next group of kids - Lynch, Dusty, Grimes, Prestia, Pickett and KMac probably over the next two list changes.

Richo played til his end and was always great.. dusty is nothing close to his best.. Richo was still good enough to keep playing.   Dusty form has been very poor. It's not my fault the truth hurts
Oh to be in the clicke on this forum. Only the ones in the clicke know what they are talking about , the rest of us are just fos...
The hard truth is Dusty better start performing, because it seems they are gifting him 300 just because of his past greatness, and that is wrong

[georgies31]

Remember no one is bigger then the club itself no one. On his current form like a few others, I wouldn't be extending his contract.

Yes, we need to start playing all those brilliant and deserving mid/forwards who are absolutely dominating at the level below and have clearly gone past Martin...

He really hasn’t been that bad. I think his output is a product of coaching at the moment. Fluctuating extremes from being plonked in the goal square when the mids are getting smashed and when he is at a centre bounce attendance he’s not in there long enough to get a feel for the game

Against Freo martin was at the centre bounce 8x. Bolton and baker were there 20 and 19 times. Dow and sonsie 10 and 9.

My guess is they want to know what life after dusty will be like so they’re trying to see if we can win it in the middle without him. (Spoiler alert: we can’t)

[Tiger_In_Sicily]

It's about the future now, not the past. Past is history. Just memories. That's it. Always need to look forward not behind.

[1965]

Dusty is the best Richmond player I have ever seen. Richo however was the most enjoyable to watch.
