Dusty will stay for $800k a year, He doesnt want to leave and will be looking to sign early IMO

True. My mistake. I hope he waits till the end of the year. Play good footy and see how the tigers are shaping up on and off the field.

I'd be surprised if he left for more money but everyone has a price point and we will need to as well.
Dusty will be 26 next season. He'll be after a 5 year deal. I doubt too many will give him that.
4 yrs at 800k seems about right to me.
Not his fault the team didn't win too many games of football.Tigers of Old said:
I cant imagine what it would have been liked if he wasn't playing.
Both him and Rance kept that team together.
He is worth every dollar.
Other teams, particularly premiership bound teams, will offer him whatever he wants. I don't think it will be the money per se but success that might attract him. We need to do everything to keep him as he has 5+ years of good footy left in him.
I really have no doubt that Dusty will sign with Richmond, He wont leave because he loves melbourne and Richmond, He will sign a 4 year deal for between $3.2-$3.4mil
Hopefully, but Dusty needs to get every cent he can from his career, as he does not have the usual coaching/media inclination for life after playing.

Disagree on this one Smokey. Very good player, not a champion like Rance is IMO.

Well they might.
If a club was prepared to offer Chris Mayne 4 , something tells me there'd be a club out there that would offer dustin Martin 5, I'm hioping it's usTigers of Old said:
So dusty is now of indigenous ancestry which means he can get more involved with the celebration of the dreamtime game!
Good one Dusty!

If a little chopstick work sets you up for a B&F and a podium finish in the brownlow, then I say the whole side should be made to eat fried rice using chopsticks at Falls Festival this year. Hire a pack of journos to chase em around.
