News Dustin Martin contract discussions

[CeltDave]

This so called player manager is a c*** of the highest order. Due to his inability to attract clients he is looking to get his pay day from Dusty. He is holding the RFC to ransom for his own financial gain and making Dusty out to be a greedy little ****!!!! There are two things as I see it that needs to happen:

1) Ralph Carr - **** off you morbid, greedy ex Carlton ****!!!
2) Dusty - HTFU quickly and grow some balls. You clearly have the intellect of a door stop, however with an unbelievable football talent, but that shouldn't preclude you seeing what the RFC has done for you, they have paid you massive amounts over the past few years based on potential and the threat of GWS when you probably didn't deserve that coin.

We are the fans and we will remember!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cheers

sorry - The point of this is?

You don't even know for sure that Carr is the reason Dusty hasn't signed.

We don't know the details, and you're complaining about something that may or may not be true

 

[CeltDave]

The point of this is to raise awareness of the impact that a player manager has in the process of resigning and to also alert to those that don't know that Carr has bugger all clients. - what are you bringing to the table apart from shit one liners?

True - I don't know - but the conjecture about this is in the media and topical, so worth discussion I would have thought

Yes it's worth discussion, but that's not what this is. This is an attack on Ralph Carr

Are you mates with Ralph Carr?

Based on what I have read in the media - he deserves scrutiny!

 

[thecotch]

Carr is just doing his job. No need to attack him. Martins performance against Carlton may have lowered his expectations somewhat perhaps. He has a long way to go to become an elite player.

 

[CeltDave]

Wow - the apologists are out tonight.

This is a Richmond Football Club forum I thought, biased towards the RFC.

See this for his own acknowledgement of the impact of his influence:

Why do I have to be mates with Ralph Carr to think its unfair for you to call him a c*** over something you know barely anything about?

True you may not be mates with the flog, but in the same vein why do you assume that I know barely anything about this situation.

When a bloke gets a trashy tattoo of a big wad of cash on the back of his hand, you could probably be excused for thinking maybe he's got mo' money on his mind.

In the background I heard sam mitchell on he Sunday footy show talking about it.

Basically said its way above what he's earning and he hopes the club pays him a million cos then we can't keep our other players.

Found a link to an article from 2012, so figures might've crept in the last 18 months, but what it shows, from official AFL data, is that there were only 26 players in the ENTIRE COMPETITION earning more than $600k. It's believed 3 of those are on the GWS list. We will soon have 4 on our list, if Dusty get's somewhere near his asking price. Scary.

Because you're not at the club. You're going on articles and bigfooty speculation

True to an extent, but also a good mate of mine who is a recently retired player described the process with me and also named a few managers that players now see as "all in it for them alone".

I think maybe a "Jerry McGuire" moment, I am having.

What am i bringing? well i'm not posting pointless threads based on pure innuendo, besides that, i want to point out i am in no way sticking up for carr, this whole Dustin contract situation is getting me pissed off also, i'm just not gonna resort to useless rants!!!

 

[RichoRichoRicho]

If he leaves we should aim for Boyd imo

 

[Harmichael]

If he leaves we should aim for Boyd imo

...and put the saved cash towards targeting Cameron in two years.
