I am very happy that I can bestow this award to a Tiger player after the circus that enveloped the footy world over Dusty’s contract status. For a young player with such elite potential, I guess it isn’t surprising that he would test the water, but at the end of the day I am glad that he plays in the Yellow and Black as he would have to be the most damaging player of his age. After an ordinary season in 2012 I predicted that he would bounce back in 2013 and that he did. He was excellent, powerful and damaging, playing all 22 matches and the final to round out a stellar year. He averaged 24.2 disposals, 2.7 tackles and kicked 23 goals (3rd behind Jack and Ty). He is the complete package and has continued to improve. At 22 years old he could really become anything in the AFL. Let’s hope the latest drama was a wake up call and he is a Tiger for the long haul! Congrats Dusty on being awarded the PREmier Fighting Tiger Award for 2013!
