Danger goes missing in finals. The last 3 years have proven that. If he stood up on the 'big stage' he'd have flag by nowPeople overrating Martin based on one stellar season last year but this year just hasn't been near that level. Danger hasn't been great either but did it for longer before then. I'd say Martin's best is better, but I'd take prime Danger for consistency.

It’s football you clown. 22 players it takes to win a flag. This isn’t tennis.If Danger is the real deal where is his premiership medals
Id take 2 norm smiths in winning gfs over ten aa’s and no gfflags = team, yes Martin has 2x Norm Smiths that's a big plus.
Danger has 7x AA's compared to Martin's 3.
Both have 1x MVP, AFLCA and Brownlow.
I still think 4x AA easily trumps 2x Norm Smiths.

Dusty is a star but far out you Richmond fans love deliberately ignoring the impact the rest of the Tigers have on the team being successful. You didn’t just go from a mediocre finals team to a two time premiership team on the back of a big leap from Martin. Plenty of things changed since 2016.
I also disagree had he stood up we win a flag. Geelong simply isn't good enough to even make it through to a grand final.
This team has 2 or 3 champions and then a whole host of inconsistent and B grade footballers.
It is really not too dissimilar to the team of the 1990's where we had 4-5 champions and then a whole batch of blokes who couldn't back up their performances on a week-to-week basis.
Martin has the luxury of performing in a well oiled team right now. Even the VFL side is winning premierships.
Bullshit. Richmond had a defence hitting its prime and Hardwick implemented smalls like Butler, Castagna and Rioli all of whom put opposition backlines under immense pressure.Nah, it’s all from martins big leap
Think you'll find that the vast majority of Richmond fans recognize the team ethos that has delivered the two flags.It’s football you clown. 22 players it takes to win a flag. This isn’t tennis.

Always amuses me when Big Footy Main Board posters are said to be representative of any teams supporter base!
He's a better version of Jack Ziebell.
He was brilliant in the 2017 finals.
Definitely poor last year and backed it up with two fairly mediocre performances this year.
If Hawkins played, you make grand final?
If the Rioli drugs-saga did not happen 24 hours earlier, West Coast beat us?

Richmond totally changed the way they played compared to 2016.

Leigh Matthews should pick the AA team. Then we would have a true indication of the best 22 in the league. Nobody in their right mind picks Walters ahead of Dusty this seasonThe All-Australian team is a flawed method of measuring player greatness as the AFL focus on making the team balanced, meaning many midfielders miss out. And some of the selections are curious. Walters was picked over Martin this year even though Martin was more consistent. Some players are also ignored too. Sam Mitchell was picked three times in his career and was often passed over for guys like Selwood because the panel subjectively favoured the former over the latter.

Probably because he carries on like a flog on and off the field. Dusty just gets on with it... the Dusty's and Swannies of the footy world are what most people identify with. The Chris Scott's and Patrick dangerfield's of the footy world are what makes most people cringe.Why does Dangerfield annoy me? I cant even give an actual reason. But he just does.
I reckon he gives us all a good glimpse of who he truly is in the last 2 minutes of the second quarter PF.I'm sure he is a good guy. But he just comes across to me as a little fake. Always playing this role for the cameras with this lovable boyish attitude. I don't know what it is. Maybe i'm just a cynical arsehole.
