The Dusty 300th celebration thread

Posting. But also part of Dustbag's genius is he knew when to do it himself also. Knew when he was the only one to get it done, and duly accommodated.
Exactly, we just don't need the idiotic footy media squawking about how they can't get an interview with Dusty, we don't need that, we see him play, we have so many highlights packages it isn't funny.
His footy does the, entertaining, talking.

And 4 champions who played in this dynasty. How lucky we all were to have them at their peak for those premierships.
Gee they’ve given us a lot of joy over those years, surely made up for the dim year early on in their careers.
Great speech by Jack on AFL360 stating that after 37 years, all generations finally enjoyed success again, and especially 3 flags!!
Just heard the Swans offered pick 6 & 14 for our pick 3 in 2009 draft. Well done Francis Jackson with the no deal.
Did we know this?

Wow - just brilliant- who needs an interview

‘In 2017, I just thought he was God’: Tiger legends welcome Martin to the 300 club
Richmond had persuaded all five living 300-gamers to assemble ahead of Dusty’s upcoming milestone against the Hawks. Some of the most revered of all have been left awestruck by the triple-Norm Smith medallist.
That’s who the Swans picked. There was also Nat Fyfe (20) and Max Gawn (34) still on the table.
Genuinely insightful words from Edwards. He should be in the media:Wow - just brilliant- who needs an interview
‘In 2017, I just thought he was God’: Tiger legends welcome Martin to the 300 club

“I’ve probably never seen someone so agile at his weight before, he’s got an amazing low centre of gravity for his height as well. And he has much better endurance than people probably give him credit for.
“So he’s the whole package, but his brain is probably his biggest asset. He’s probably the smartest player I’ve ever played with ... he sees the game on another level and every touch he gets he’s trying to get the team a goal. There’s no padding to what he does. Everything is high damage, and he gets a lot of it in almost any situation in the front half.”
Edwards, notably, spoke of Martin in the present tense – what he is – and went so far as to call Dusty Richmond’s safety blanket and a source of reassurance for the team. “There was some element to hanging in there as a team, making the game as even as possible knowing we’ve got this guy in our front half that can take us over the line and lifts in the biggest moments. He’s somewhat of a safety blanket, and he relieved a lot of anxiety for us other players.”
And responsible for us winning 8 out of our last 10 grand finals.
I'd love to see Shedda in the media. He is articulate, quick witted and very funny. A natural.
Didn't expect Dusty to sit next to KB. Reckon it would have been a little frosty tbh.
