damo barrett ziebell and tarrant begged martin to join norf and they are offering 2m more over the life of the deal. still thinks he will be a tiger.

**** imagine being so terrible that you offer blokes 10/9m and they still laugh and tell you to feck off
If Martin met with there leadership group as they are saying, do they seriously think Martin would be playing? Just picture that for a second, a contracted player, walking in to another club whilst contracted, sits around in another clubs room Infront of there playing group and coaches, it just boggles the mind how stupid the media is. I'm almost certain if even a whiff of something like that was actually true the club would be all over it and would have promptly told Dusty he can play out his days as a Richmond player in the vfl.

I'm not up to date on my bikie gangs/clubs so forgive me if I'm wrong but wouldn't it be more like going from the rebels to some group of old guys who created a bikie club for their Sunday bike rides?
Ullyssees...lol

Just say Martin decides he's staying, we won't have to take that mate of his Marty Williamson will we? Surely that won't be part of the deal? Could be the deal breaker.
In fairness Marley was damn good for us pre-injury. Might not be a factor in Dusty but will be figuring in defence for us for a few years.

I have never seen him play for North. Just one of those blokes you don't hear about.
But good to take the piss.

Not to mention the fact that it would be a huge story and he would have broken it 6 weeks ago.

Find it hard to believe he only just found out that happened given his connections and support of the kangaroos

You're right that's definitely a more north appropriate analogy. I was trying to throw the rest of the AFL into one basket

heard it during his talking segment on the footy show. said north is offering up to 2m more but richmond have gone to the afl with there package which will include money making oppurtunities after football
That is interesting. Would have thought you'd only do that if agreed upon. Otherwise you just end up making repeat trips to AFL house. Surely our internal lawyers can give guidance pre approval from AFL.

He read it here nothing surer. Doesn't mean it didn't happen though. It would have to happen.
How the **** can you offer that much without even talking to the bloke.
It's irrelevant anyway without knowing how it went .

Is the offer real or verbal to appease the 12 supporters?
