And didn't Dermie say that Dusty wouldn't get any better than he was at that particular time.

Dermie says a lot, unfortunately most of it is complete dribble.
 
If Jake Stringer is "The Package".
Dustin Martin is an "Amazon Distribution Center".

Anymore he can go.
Apprantly both stkilda and Collingwood are offering him 1.2 over 6 years.

Can't match that. We won't be able to hold onto Edwards, Houli and Townsend

Ouch, thats all I can say!!
 
260. That's how many pages this thread will get to by September. If he hasn't signed by September, add another 75 pages.

Dermie says a lot because he likes the sound of his voice :)

It's the name of the game. I reckon he is good for a few nuggets of wisdom every now and again but 2.5 hours X 3-4 games X 23 rounds is a lot of dead air to fill with "expert" commentary.
 
Has the afl announced what the new TPP figure will be . Just offer Dusty what they reckon plus make allowances for the proposed increase shouldn't be to hard to figure out. I reckon he wants to stay but it will be about the coin and that fair enough

Pies surely cannot afford $1.2per

This is how it goes after the Treloar + his missus deal was given the ok by AFL
Eddie will in a secret deal offer Dustys dad $1Mill pa to be Pies ambassador in NZ and pay Dusty $200K pa.
That fits nicely into Pies salary cap 8-
 
Eddie quipped on Friday that Dusty's form will cost HIM (Eddie) more money.

I have no doubt clubs will be offering $1.2 million a season for Dusty. The question will be, at what point does the RFC draw the line.

I for one was disappointed when we missed out on Treloar but as a result we have Prestia and Rioli. Sometimes the cloud does have a silver lining

Won't get announced until EBA is agreed and signed.
Yep. There's supposed to be a fairly fat increase to the cap coming up so obvious that players would want a decent look at what's available before committing pen to paper.
Dusty has been in fairly consistent quality form for a few years now, if he maintains the level that he showed in game one through the season then he'd be crazy to consider anything less than a mill per year for five years.
 
We know Dusty can't play like that every week. Sanity will return as soon as he puts in an ordinary game. Anyone would think he does 33 and 4 goals every week! Take a breath folks. It's round one.
