Player Watch #4: Dustin Martin

[Punt rd end]

Hmm yeah not gonna happen.

The AFL will engineer this, it is what they do, wheels are in motion. 10 games a year in Tas minimum.

 

[Wallaby]

Hey, I'd live in Tassie - great place.

Yes, I am over 50 - your point is?

 

[Frustrated Tiger]

Hmm yeah not gonna happen.

Okay, here are your Ralph Carr sightings to choose from to ring into SEN tomorrow:
1 - i was walking my poodle this morning in Moorabin at around 8am when i saw Ralph Carr leaving a flower shop with a wreath and small tiger plush toy. I couldn't quite read the note, but i could of sworn i read to the RFC.

2 - i was driving past Whitten oval at around 6.30am and i saw Dusty having a coffee with The Bont and Ralph

3 - i was practicing tai chi near goschs paddock at around 7am and i saw Dusty finishing a run with Nathan Jones, but he then got into a car which Ralph was driving and they looked like they were heading over to punt rd oval.

4- i was picking up the mail at ikon park almost ran over some guy with neck tattoos , and some weird older dude with a dead possum on his head,,, could have sworn as i was leaving ,,, damo, scoop , and wispy were hiding behind the grassy knoll

 

[partycorolla]

Ok, I'm now confused....

1. Dusty is making a decision in the bye between round 23 and the finals according to his manager. Assuming we make finals then you wouldn't think that there would be an announcement to say he is leaving. In fact, given he is a restricted free agent, he can't actually make a decision to leave at that point because
a) Free agency hasn't opened at that point so he can't accept an offer that can't be made under AFL rules
b) If a wasn't true, the RFC have the option to match any offer anyway

2. Assuming that Ralph Carr surprises us all and nothing is announced (to the media) during the proposed time then where is he likely to go? he has been linked to:
Lolnorf - however Dusty hates Tassie and surely would prefer to play in front of actual crowds rather than fake crowd noises. Oh and they may not even have a coach at that point
GWS - who denied it
Sydney - who denied it
Saints - who are actually reasonably placed to trade for him
Hawks - have cap space probably but no picks whatsoever to offer if we match offer.
Essendon
Gold Coast - by Hird

Have I missed anyone? Surely if he is considering moving it would be to 1 or 2 clubs tops, not a highest bidder scenario as some flog journalist said....

Dumb **** ox on sen tonight reckons brad scott is flying to new Zealand straight after round 23,, mark allen is he going there to see dustys dad,,, of course says ox laughs and then says hes off to North

 

[LC_15]

Yes, we can match anything offered.

I thought so, I had heard that richmond was just going to come over the top on any offer. I think carr is basically doing his best to extort the tigers.

Or he is happy to play at a backwater club if they are the highest bidder....

That's why the club are comfortable with our offer to him. He'll either accept being the highest paid player at the club by some margin, or he will go and be a mercenary at any club that offers him the most coin. No point worrying about the later if that's where his heads at.

 

[Bojangles17]

You think it's a dealbreaker?

I suspect that's why Carr had to come down and check it out for himself

 

[Shogun]

If we didn't go to Gold Coast in 07 we ain't going anywhere now or in future.
Ben Buckley just stated we will never leave Arden St.
We have 40k members now and have a good deal down in Hobart for 3 games a yr.

That campaigner hutchy is ******* oxygen thief.

You're on the wrong board and no one here gives a shit.

Where Shane Martin will see that Bwad is a whinging shit bloke and "Don't Argues" him back on to the plane

 

[SA_Tiger11]

Sign the ******* contract Dustin. I've had enough of this shit

 

[DickieKnee]

A bloke down the pub selling raffle tickets for a meat tray told me he saw Dusty and Ralph at the airport catching a flight to Perth.

Can back this up. Just spotted him and Ralph sharing a Chicken Treat Half Chicken and Chips meal in Armadale.

[Rodney Dangerfield]

Seen today in a Norf jumper. It's real.

 

[Cotcho]

It's actually pissing me off all the bloody campaigners talking about Dusty. Every man and his dog has a new theory about where he's going every couple of hours....and that's just the media personalities. It's getting ridiculous now. It seems as though it's getting to the point where we pay massive overs for one guy and ruin our future or simply lose him to some other pack of sillies. Makin' me depressed now.

Just heard from a very reliable source that dusty will play a game for all 18 clubs,,, after round 18,,, he gets to choose which club he plays for on a permanent basis,,

Would be nice if Chris was there as well

 

[jc12]

apparently i heard from a very good source that dustin is going to throw a dice to see where he should play, if it lands on 1-2 he will stay if it rolls at 3-4 he will take up singing classes and if it goes to 5-6 he will retire and host the footy show, you heard it here first

NO he wasnt IM ****ING SICK AND TIRED OF THIS FAKE NEWS, the reason why IS BECAUSE dusty was actually spotted doing ballet classes with andrew phillips and matthew broadbent this morning which obviously means he is playing for carlton and port Adelaide next year so that he can have 1.3 million dollars a year each from both teams
