Club can get stuffed.

Who the stuff are they to tell him who he can and can't talk to?

Seriously, who made this call-Hardwick ?

We have a lot of muppets at the club

And maybe one more less next year ;) Seriously, Dustin may or may not  be able to turn it around in a behavioural sense but I have always had doubts regarding his disappointing aerobic capacity which contributes to a poor defensive attitude. He has one year to turn it around afaic.

Now Connors has gone we have traded for his replacement Edwards. Do we now tell Edwards to stay away from Dusty as he may be a bad influence?

Seems strange to me that a 24 year old is bffs with a 20 year old.

GWS will have Tyson and O'Rourke on their books by the end of this week. If they offered up Tyson and O'Rourke next year surely the club have to have a look at it.

i would look at something like that for sure, it has to definitely be 2 first rounders.

If he gets a missers soon he'll be fine.

Yes that could work as long as she had a brain in her head.

We should have held onto Connors and traded him to GWS.

The only way I see this having a happy ending is if Connors gets picked up by another club interstate.

Dusty and Connors will remain mates regardless of whatever happens. Connors doesn't deal with authority well and would enjoy peeing of the club and spending time with Dusty.

Need someone in the playing group to take Connors position in Martins life and quick. Someone similar age and a leader. Cotchin has enough on his plate and Lids is now married. Someone like Jack Riewoldt could move in with Dusty and take Connors out of the equation.
Go Tigers!

woe is me article in regards to Dan, at the
end of the day was given multiple chances
and blew the lot...average player to boot. :lol

as for DM well he is not the full cut lunch, so
it doesnt surprise that he is attracted to the
likes of a Dan Connors, if it wasnt him it will
be someone else.
he has done squat personally for people to be having
kittens about if he left, trade him get what we can
especially if he has a better year than what he
showed this year.

Should be a law against it.

Serves our brains trust right TBH. They pick up this worthless dud in what, the 06 draft? He's not a good player, he had a lot of bad history prior to being drafted and many of us know some the poo he got up to while on our list. AND THE CLUB KEPT HIM ON THE ENTIRE TIME. What an absolute pack of duds we have had running our club. After all those incidents, why did they keep him instead of delisting him? He deserved to be delisted. Is it because he was on a contract he didn't deserve ;D And if so, who signed him to the that contract? This chap and Dustin should have never even met because Connors should have got the arse after his first or second season. stuff knows why he was drafted in the first place yet alone on our list for 5-6 years

And funnily enough I don't even blame him for that sleeping tablet rubbish he was sacked for. He just should have been gone long before 2012

Top post Coach.  :thumbsup

Now write it again and substitute Connors name with Aaron Edwards.  :clapping
The club that keeps giving.

Caro on 3aw talking about Dustin Martin

Caro on 3aw now:

* For the first time since Martin was drafted, Richmond is considering a world without him. If he goes awry they wouldn't want to wait 5 years from now to trade him. Caro added Dusty hasn't endeared himself with the club over the past couple of months with his behaviour and stuff he did midway through the season. She said if Dusty doesn't change his ways he could end up another Fev. Not in terms of drugs/alcohol or anything like that but just as a talented footballer who wasted his footy career with his poor behaviour.

* Richmond was privately hoping Connors would end up in the SANFL and not Alberfeldie (suburb around Essendon) so he was no longer in communicable distance with Martin.

* Healy claimed clubs overlooked Dusty at draft time because he was a ticking timebomb (nb. says the bitter Melbourne supporter  ::) )
