I wouldn't be offering Martin another contact. His time is done at RFC. He can go to another club if he wishes but I believe the game is past him.
Forever a Tiger legend, but the end is nigh.

Agree, we need to move on. 100% obvious he's cooked. No team will really want him.

Greatesr tiger player highlights reel of them.all...What astonishing joy he brought to all tiger fans.
But its time to either retire or go to anotger club.I imagine anyone in premiership window would love him in the foward povket.Suns maybe?
FRee up our purse strings by grimes graham kmac prestia and dusty ( even lynch )leaving and pursue a couple of ypung guns...Add first round draft picks if Baker and Rioli leaving ( if they do) and a completly new era and possibilities open up.
And no more nank as captain
 
No interviews before the 300th.
Has agreed to a documentary.
Will front up with other living 300 club members for a photo.
That's it.

Fair enough!

No different to GAblett and TLockett when it comes to being bombarded with media attention. These days it’s so much worse, even from some Tiger supporters on this website.

Leave him alone and respect everything he’s given to our club and the game.

Dusty is the best player I’ve watched in over 60 years. Before him it was GA. Players like them rarely grace our game. Thank you!

I wouldn’t be giving the media one iota of access either.

Why would you give a fraternity of aholes that have fabricated so much *smile* about you over your entire career any leg up on anything ?

Good on him.

Totally disagree. I think he's carrying a leg, and related to that, also in a form slump which is both contributing to and caused by our plummeting fortunes. Not 100% fit/ form slump/ period of big change and adjustment. He is human. Its crazy to think he'd just keep dominating like a robot IMO. Robbed blind of AA last season, has at least 2 good years left. And if he decided to walk, half the sides in the comp would have a close look.

This is Dustin Martin were talking about here. I'm amazed at how he puts up with this constant media speculation about when he will cut his toenails etc etc, amazed.

Anyone getting the Dusty tattoo?

There’s a guy in Melbourne who can do it for just $50.

Got mine last week

There's quite a few mistakes in that article. Cambo only played 297 & Dusty signed a 7 year deal not 9.

If the media think it's a shame Dusty's not doing interviews, then they need to have a look at themselves on how they've treated him in the past.
Not hard to find out the reason for his decision.

I'd imagine their first question "So Dusty, congrats on reaching 300 game milestone. Can you tell us if you've decided to go the Gold Coast next year?"

*smile* em

And the second question: "when did you lose your passion for the game?"
Third: "what do you say to all the fans who think you should give more back to the game?"
Fourth: "What have you done for us lately?"

etc etc. Yes, stuff 'em. Pack of third-rate suckhole hacks (I think thats a tautology, but who cares) who should all be sending him a weekly sling for existing so they can get paid to write their disrespectful speculative crap.
