So dusty is now of indigenous ancestry which means he can get more involved with the celebration of the dreamtime game!
Good one Dusty!

And it just goes to show we can develop indigenous kids....

Chopstick saga was well into it this time last year, it was before they returned to training from memory, im thinking young dusty will be a clean skin this preseason

Clean skin lol.
No pics of his USA trip thus far, so penny might have dropped.
I believe he wants to be the highest paid player in the AFL next contract so 2017 look out.
Will back him heavily for Brownlow.

We haven't had a decent scandal/topic this pre-season to concentrate everyone's attention. 9/11, Chopstickgate etc worked well and helped pass the time until the first practive match.

With the lack of a decent topic to rage over, it's reverted back to constant Dimma bashing where there is nothing new t be said. In fact, there been nothing new to say for 6 months

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.

What about security guard outside the Richmond merchandise store?

Reported Dusty will be weighing up all options before renewing his contract which is as expected.
We dont need to chase a big fish we have our own in Dusty if we can offer our midget $700K pa over 5 years we can offer him more
Dusty is our A grader, line breaker match winning :star and we shouldnt lose him. Dusty is worth $1Million pa get the deal done RFC.

Personally I would be very surprised if Dusty left but I felt the same way about Deledio

To me the difference is that Dusty has so much invested in the club and the stability it give his life and I would expect he understands that much more than he did 3 years ago. He is quite within his rights to maximise his earnings in the contract round though especially since he knows that it is probably his one big chance in life to make serious money

Lucky there isn't a NZ Warriors like AFL team cause my hunch is he would be on the next plane out to be with his dad...maybe...

Manager speak. Don't blame him for weighing up his option and seeing if the changes made to the club have a positive impact (cue all the moan drones who will need to reply saying that unless Dimma is dumped nothing will/has changed).

His last renewal happened quietly. We'll see.

 

[zgod]

By the end of next season he will be rated the comps best IMO. Entering his prime. He is easily worth 1 million.

He actually has a strong relationship with Dimma.

So maybe Dimma getting sacked might sway Dusty to leave.

 

[zippadeee]

I would get rid of 43 players and just keep.him.
He is our only true game breaker

I would have thought number 18 might be worth another chance

Oh, that would be a popcorn worthy time on PRE if Dusty tied his staying at the club to Dimma's retention.

 

[turk-d-tiger]

$4 million x 5 year deal will get it done and Dusty wont leave

Other clubs will come with $1 mill a year but after tax its only extra 100k a year

Tax my balls, if a club offers him $1 more what we offer, he is gone.
Don't worry we have tight ass Dan on the job.
