This is pretty accurate ($1.4m) and fits in with what I quoted to Snake a few weeks back. At that stage we were $1.1m.

It's frogshit. There are morons here that would pay $3 million a year for Martin, but thankfully, they aren't the NMFC.

You yourself, have no credibility whatsoever about Norths offers. Feel free to make up whatever best quells your dissonance. If someone on this board quoted $25 million a year you would sprint back to the D&T board and gloriously declare how much Martin loves Richmond for taking a $24 million dollar discount.

A few of you guys have asked and gone on and on about " Why has Dusty not signed if he wants to stay a tiger etc etc ?"

Let me pose this. The tigers and Dusty knew 6 months ago, he was staying at the club, just had finer details to work out. 3 months ago, Dusty is convinced the clubs on the right path and is happy with the coin. Due to Carr being on record they wanted to wait till the end of year, Dusty/Carr and the Tigers decide to create a win/win. They allow it to drag on, Carr gets exposure that money cant buy, Tigers on the other hand, have opposition clubs like yours being stalled in being able to lock in players as you cant commit cap space budgeted for Dusty.

Tigers meanwhile are working behind the scenes, talking to those uncontracted players being stalled by clubs like north and gws. Getting on the front foot, offering attractive offers as we also have a shit load of cap space. No lids, no yarran, no hampson and further delistings this year, while the cap has gone up by 20%. Essentially we pay Dusty 1.2 ( really a million considering the cap increase) for 7 years, lock him in as a one club player...while pinching one or two up and coming guns from teams like GWS and yours......its so crazy it may be true :p

And there it is. The dumbest thing I will read this year. Maybe this decade. Kudos to you.
 
Clearly I'm not involved with the club.. I've got no idea, just going by what I believe to be the most accurately reported..

1) I know.
2) Don't take it personally.

Dustin Martin is not worth $1.2 million , much less $1.4 million.

So when I quoted you the 3 clubs and the 3 offers weeks ago, no mention of 'frogshit' because you thought you had your man.

Now it is increasingly apparent he is staying, not only do you howl down what you had the chance to weeks ago, you also say he is not worth $1.2m.

I understand the club, and supporters, would be disappointed to not land one of their targets, but you rewrite things, lol.

FWIW, as I have consistently stated, I hope you lot get Kelly off the Plastics.

Goodbye.
 
Do you know if our offer was pre-CBA with provisions to rise with cap?
At a wild guess, thats where the new figure might come from..

The footy talking heads are banding about all sorts of numbers.

I doubt any projected CBA differentials would equate to $200,000 a year.

There's plenty of times I haven't bothered responding to you. This doesn't automatically mean that I agree with you. I tend to ignore you because you don't really have anything new to add.

Now it is increasingly apparent he is staying, not only do you howl down what you had the chance to weeks ago, you also say he is not worth $1.2m.

No player is worth that much. I can cop Kelly because he is the best 22 year old in the land and his contract is spread out over 9 years.

I understand the club, and supporters, would be disappointed to not land one of their targets, but you rewrite things, lol.

Life will go on.

The reality of Dustin Martin from our perspective is that he has played us 11 times and been on the winning team on only 3 occasions. He's an excellent player, but he isn't a match winner.

FWIW, as I have consistently stated, I hope you lot get Kelly off the Plastics.

Thanks for your kind intentions.


Farewell & amen.

Hahahaha hes not worth it but you were happy you are offering 1.2m x 6?

We have to pay the leverage tax and we are in serious need of his type of player.

Your mob are going to be paying more than that to keep him, so they are well aware as to the shallow depth of their own list.

Are you 12 years old? 10? 8?

You do know it's not us on Bigfooty making the offers (that have been guessed at and may or may not have been made), don't you?

My name is really Ben Buckley and we already approved Dusty at $1m a year in which he has handshaked on already a month ago. Says he wants to win a final and that he was happy to take a few dollars less to get out of there. Marley relayed onto me that Dusty scoffed at the late offer from the Tigers.

For sure but I still can't visualise him coming to us. Would be happy to be wrong.
Why can't you visualise him coming to Arden St? Because we are a "small club" or is it because we are "Norf" or because we have "4 members"? Those things are irrelevant when money is involved.
