With a topic already about Tapscott I thought that I would post one about one of my favourites in this draft and with Whom I would be trully estatic to have. I am not full entranched in the draft but I do no good players when I see them and this bloke look a gun. Can kick both feet beautifully and is pretty tall and has a massive tank. I dont know if he would come to pick ten but would be tremoundous if he did what does everyone else think? I would really like some good info on him ie. weaknesses ect....thanks

If Martin is still there at our pick we should jump at the chance. I think he will be gone well before our pick though.
Bump.
Anybody have any info on this guy?
I want to pick him so we can have two dustin's at essendon. :thumbsu:
my assessment of Martin was a hard-nosed ball getter, decent size, skilful with the only query being on his pace. His rating may go down after draft camp if his doesn't test well speed wise.

I think he's pretty much the answer to our dreams. Kicks superbly on both sides of his body, but also has an ability to get the hard ball. Will be a star in the future, and I sincerely hope we can get our hands on the kid.

Well his first name is Dustin, that's a start.

Hope his rating goes down so he can slide to 10. Pace isn't everything. Its the least of our worries

Exactly. We have an abundance of pace- we need a silky skilled finisher, and someone to support Jobe in the hard ball gets. Martin covers both areas.

Dustin # 2 will be The Dustbin's shadow if he is drafted.

Wow slow down. He has to earn a spot first and when that time comes, we would look at someone who is under performing in the team as a possible replacement as there is always a number of players out of form at the one time.
