Spose Kangaroos had to offer a ridiculous amount to get a decent player over to their club. I'll miss Dusty if he takes the cash, but the club would be silly to match that offer.

Can understand why Kangaroos had to do it. They will miss on Kelly. Pittards re-signed and Motlop looks to be going to Port. All eggs in the one basket now.

Will be interesting to see if Dusty accepts the unders offer to stay at Richmond.
Guess we can afford to offer that much hey but if that's Richmonds limit i understand that to.

No one has a clue what will happen Dusty could stay so could kelly we can just shoot into the darkness just wait and see what happens.
No player is bigger than the team don't stress
Totally agree with you.
Wouldn't want to match Kangaroos offer.
$10.5m over 7 years is just crazy money for one player.

As long as you got to experience them all in person I've only experienced 2 in my life.

Who knows what 2017 holds for Richmond in finals and with Dusty.
I've seen us win one and lose won and the old man has seen us win 4. I guess his dick is bigger than yours or mine.

Great that you seen 1/1 and your dad 4 them momories will never be forgotten.

And a win this week and 3'rd position is yours and who knows, this whole Dusty thing has gone on far to long for me but i think N.Z is the best place for him to make that decision with his dad and away from all the media.

I think the decision has been made and there's a heads of agreement in place. I will say this, if Dusty does end up signing for us, why the hell did he draw it out for so long. It's been painful for both sides.

5 in my lifetime....

Mind you, the more relevant factor would be the likes of Balme....having a football manager who has taken other clubs to flags (in addition to playing in a few)....well, I assume he has more of a clue on such matters than anyone here, and if he's saying 'that's as much as we'll pay', I figure he knows what he's talking about.

Who in North's FD has similar experience?

I still think North have got him. And the crazy thing is, the behaviour we are seeing now is just the start from either side. Benny accounts, the works, just dumb, nast business which serves no point.

We can afford to....We're still looking at getting a KPF in, in addition to retaining Dusty, after all, we just don't think one player is worth that much.
Yeah it's not over yet i know,doing what's best for your list no doubt as we are in trying to get Dusty to our club.

I'm comfortable and content no matter how it turns out. Can't remember the last we had a top 1 to 3 pick in the draft.

One of three recruits which has helped us get to fourth? For the price you are paying to get Martin, you could of got Prestia and Caddy or Prestia and Nankervis, but hey, good luck with those overs which will get you from 18th to 13th.

Couldn't be more wrong! NMFC aren't paying anything to get him because for NMFC the true currency is not $ but picks. RFC gave up the world to get Prestia, Caddy and Nankervis. Picks are where the true cost is.

Yes, a pick in the 40's for Nank, a late future 20's pick for Caddy and pick 6 for Prestia, and we are going into the draft with two first rounders this year. Goddam, we got screwed bruzzy.
We "gave up the world". Thanks for the laugh.
