Am watching Fox Sports News and they showed a copy of tomorrow's HS back page. They spoke about a Izzy Folau story and a story about a demon player coming forward with new tanking revelation but what struck my eye was a banner at the bottom of the page stating "Wild Tiger : Richmond confronts Martin" with a headshot of Dusty in the middle, anyone know what this is about? Do we have anything to worry about? Suppose we will find out tomorrow.
 
I think there is plenty to worry about with dusty - when I heard about the sleeping pills and what he mixed them with I kind of wrote him off a bit and thought he'd eventually get in deep sh*t.

I hope he gets his stuff together but bad signs

Its off season and he is a kid. If not in the off season then when is he allowed to enjoy himself? Lets see how he goes through pre season before ripping him apart. We didnt draft a choir boy and we knew that when we got him.

Middle of the season when he was suspended is not the off season. The stories you hear about Dusty are a massive worry for the club, but then you hear about him in at Punt Road every day in his own time and seems to be starting training with the years 1-3 kids? Anyway hopefully he spends every second with Choco and when he isn't with Choco i hope he is with Cotch.

I was referring to the "list of incidents and sightings" and to his behaviour since moving out on his own.
I agree the whole connors thing was a strike and he was punished accordingly.

Are you referring to the article coming out in his down time or his sightings and incidents happening in his down time? Because the article says a string of incidents since his return from suspension which isn't a great sign.
 
Dusty is a lot like Buddy...Both should have gone Number 1, but both had some rough edges and behavioural issues...Richmond knew this, but Richmond couldn't afford to let this kid slip through...What if he turned out like Buddy, and what if he does...?
We have to exhaust every avenue with him...Tom Scully is a solid citizen who doesn't drink...I know which one I'd prefer.

Love the guy to bits but hopefully he pulls his head in.

If he hasn't learnt his lesson from the sleeping pills incident then I don't know if he ever will. Hopefully Choco can help out. Can we hire his dad as the boxing coach? :p
 
Dear Dusty,

If you get on BigFooty occasionally, this is just a message from me and every single Richmond supporter.
Please be good, we need you to help us win a premiership.

Regards,
Everyone.

Hello Capitano Totti

Thank you for the well wishes. I actually get on big footy alot. Please don't believe what you hear in the papers as 100% true. Yes I love a bourbon , yes I do blow a couple of hundgee a week on hookers. And yes I dont mind crushing up a few Valium and putting them in my red bull.

I'll be sweet , 2013 will be a great year. Chimp face Cotchin watches me like a hawk so all should be in control this year.

Thanks for your concern

Dustin

P.s if Tippett doesn't find his way to Sydney I expect to get a huge offer off them next year but I love the Tiges so don't worry about me heading home to live with the ol man.

Amazing talent but wouldn't have been against him being floating around at trade time , 2 top 5 picks would have been a good result IMO .
Won't surprise me if he has already played his best footy .
Ben Cousins played years of great footy and had more issues than National Geographic , what have we got to worry about!

Because Ben cousins played in an era where provided you continued to play good footy the club didn't give a shit . The fallout of Cousins been de-registered has changed the way clubs look at off field behaviour and as such I think Dustin will forever be ridden and as such won't be capable of playing anywhere near his best footy . Before eventually rebelling going on a few massive benders and being delisted .
Ask someone in marketing / sponsorship what sort of effect negative press re players has on their job , companies putting cash in for sponsorship don't want the negative press , there is more people within the world who are against people who go on weekly benders than there are those who support it .
