Am I the only one who thinks we should be upping our offer???

What's the point of having extra cap space if it means losing Martin and Conca? Personally I think he's worth another 50k. Our premiership window is supposed to be in about 2-3 years, if Martin leaves it might never get open.

Without knowing full details of exactly what's going on, I think the club should be a tad more desperate.

Vlad has told dusty to stay. I doubt he will let him walk to GWS in the pre season draft. I'd take Adams for Martin in a heartbeat. Adams actually plays pretty similar and isn't a flog.
Vlad can't change the rules now, that will need to be done at the end of the season including draft periods.

Pretty sure they said they will "raid" your list after it was found out you were trying to poach Dom Tyson last year.

They've been after Martin since his first year in the AFL though.
Just like you poached Tippet from the Crows!! When he said he was going home to QLD!. Get back to your Board I hope Freo smash your charity case of a club. I have not ruled out the AFL helping you draft Martin with your extra cash in the salary cap...Joke!

can We have a separate sub board so we can all slag him off, FFS people chill out.
The last big name that walked out for $$$(Ottens) also generated a lot of a heated discussion and anger. Quite understandable, considering how much time and effort the club has put into his many off field issues and as such it feels like a betrayal and a slap in the face to the club and its loyal supporters who have stood by him.

Money and greed is the reason why the majority of Australians voted to cut overseas aid!
Money and greed is the reason why the majority of Australians voted to keep refugees from entering the country!
Money and greed is the reason why the majority of Australians voted to scrap the carbon tax!
Money and greed is the reason why the majority of Australians choose to live in huge houses with smart phones, televisions, computers etc when over a billion people live below the poverty line!

We are mostly all guilty of at least some of the above list.

We all love Richmond, and as crazy mad supporters that we all are, would not only play for free but we would pay to play for Richmond and therefore struggle to understand why Dustin is doing this....however....It is not really fair for any of us to judge when we probably all show similar greedy, selfish tendencies that Dustin does. Maybe not to the same extent but remember he is a product of this greedy selfish society, is rich, spoilt and appears unintelligent...go easy everyone and give the guy a chance. He may still win us a flag yet!

I hate religion with a passion but there is one alright Christian quote we all should think about and it is:

"Let he who is without sin cast the first stone" :thumbsu:

This is exactly what caused the RFC to faulter over the last 30 years, hence why we are so steadfast!

Seriously some of the shit that is getting posted in here and in social media about this is becoming embarrassing. That picture was posted on June 11, well before the JDM was booked. So I have no doubt that Dustin would have made other arrangements regarding attending that concert.

Wow.... I actually wasn't trying to troll you at all but could see how that might come off.

I can see you're not taking this whole situation too well (don't blame you), so I'll leave you to it......

At $500k you are making more money than Tony Abbott... You are a Dog. $500k is roughly 6 average wage earners... you are 22yrs FFS.....how much more do you want???

The President put u up at his house and nurtured you through all the crap and invested his own personal time in you... If you are after money, then go to GWS and play in front of 500 people, most of them don't even know the rules.. The Tigers are on the up and i can only wait to boo you until my voice dies you ungrateful, greedy cvnt...

Piece of sh!t......
