Woah, the big one too, the one his peers decide on
Looking it up it appears the only metric Dusty has covered in so far this season is UnCon possessions and kicks. Goals per game the same and pretty much everything else Danger. This being Danger that neutrals are saying is down on last season.
As for kicks, well there was that article last week showing the club wants Danger to handpass more to include his teammates (thus reduce this so called Dangerwood reliance), seems to working for a few players....
Not everything is some long standing feud or grudge. Talk shite about my club or players of said club and they'll be defended vigorously. This thread is no different.
Dusty has been playing at a high level since he was drafted. He has gone to another level this year. Too bad he has done a groin which will slow him down. Was on world record pace before that. Hopefully he can get over it. If he does, would not be surprised to see him win a Brownlow and again get AA honours. He did well in the Brownlow in a poor team last year. Poor teams players don't receive votes in modern times as umpires award the winning teams players with the majority of votes.
Right now, this year he is comparable to Dangerfield. You seem to be talking about past history. We are talking about the present and at the present he is just as good which I thought was the title of the thread.

Wouldn't even give him the present.
Sorry, but anyone who follows Tottenham can't be that good a judge!

Right back at ya with Richmond..
Danger is still the better player, slightly but Martin is a year younger and is a little more team oriented than Dangerfield, really not much in it recently, although Danger does have the runs on the board.
I would take either and to have both would get you a long way towards a flag.

Not every player, chopsticks Martin though, yes.
He was at ~50% last week. But he's on the mend. There were moments you knew he would normally go for the audacious kick but couldn't.
I love watching PD, he is a one in a decade player. Individual brilliance.
But dusty's strength is his playmaking ability. He brings others into the game more with superior kicking. He is coming into his prime, is stronger than ever and he is getting better accolades as the team improves around him.

Thank you
On the comparison its interesting what you have highlighted. Having watched PD for a few years I admire the way he throws himself at the contest to win the ball : A Grade: I admire his dedication to put himself on the park each week. But he loses a bit because like a Raging Bull he doesn't look left or right, just straight ahead nose steaming legs pumping. When sometimes the best option is to use team-mates
Dustin , as you point out, brings others into the game, to create different pressure points for the opposition to have to shut down. That's selflessness and a hard trait to develop in a cut-throat sport
Yes, the team that is 5-0!

Neither are as good as Sloane...
Came here to type this as a joke, but as I typed it, it occurred to me it's not such a joke call

Dangerfield was garbage today, missed the Tigers demolition in Adelaide.
That's a steaming pile of Hotspur.

Hang on a sec, he actually cleaned up his disposal abit this week and went at 64%, but then again, how many metres gained did he achieve? That's what it's about for Tigers fan.
load a tottenham that is
