Training For Redemption in 2022

Dimma has ruled Dusty out for the remainder of the home and away season.
No mention of finals

From what I hear the aim was always for dusty to be ready for the first week of finals after he had another minor strain. Should be right with finals still over 3 weeks away.
 
Dusty doing very little.

When I said Dusty was doing very little, he was out there for 90 minutes but everything was at half Rat power, nothing remotely approaching any speed at all.

MAIN TRAINING TODAY:

No Grimes at all.
Dusty doing very little.
DRioli & JNR not here maybe have something to attend in relation to that death in extended family a few weeks ago?.
Vlastuin maybe a sneaky chance? Started in rehab but has joined in circle work and saw him take a mark above his head, doubt we would see full on contact for him today though.
Nank went in very early so basically hasn't trained.
Tigga not participating in game sim. though but I am still not ruling him out from being named tonight.
Just noticed Tarrant ain't out there.
Bake's not out there and Shai managed a fair bit
Thanks caesar.

Willi Rioli Sr funeral was yesterday.

CAPTAINS RUN : Saturday10:30am at PRO, I reckon that's when i will know if Vlaustin is in and not before even though he'll be named tonight. I was pleasantly surprised on how much of the session he did.

If fit, I’d still name him as the sub to make sure he’s cherry ripe.
Would still be very sore.
Break glass in case of emergency. ( as in after half time if the game is in the balance ).
Apparently Miller has privately been rehearsing his full body cramps.

If they are only bruised and not cracked i say get him in there, we haven't the luxury of assuming the final's birth is a lock.

Nothing minor about it, problematic is more apt.

My eyes will tell me if he is a chance for finals nothing else, Burge last week said if Dusty isn't able to step it up this week, (my take that meant a bit more speed), then it would be a concern but then Dimma comes out today and say's Dusty has had a good week on the track but I haven't seen much difference to last week so ????????????????????

Dusty looked terrific in his last game against West Coast and seemed back to his best but the hamstring injury was just bad luck and not surprising for a bloke over 30 now. Has been very resilient over his career so soft tissue injuries had to happen at some stage. Please stop writing you attention seeking tripe and just enjoy Martin as one of the best or possibly the best ever player to pull on a Richmond jumper.
if you rewatch the game those “disposals” were hardly game changing and commentators always make players look good even though they’ve been average

Wanna win need tigga
 
That's the issue now.
We all wait for the next step.
With or without Dusty
no player is bigger than anyone or anything

If we can get decent picks or recruits for that $1.3 I’d rather look forward to future for tigers than someone who is at the end of their game
 
Funny how you add nothing else to this forum other than cheap shots potted towards Martin.

You are nothing short of disgraceful.
Unlike you I open my eyes and ears and don’t just take what’s said as gospal. I can take my yellow and black hat off when it comes to decisions best for club
 
he's run about 500 slow laps with cameras pointing and people gawking.....without putting any pressure on sprinting .....why the hell do you think he looks a little bit bored..... do you expect him to be giggling and doing cartwheels or something. what an ignorant, arrogant and floggish Post.
Cameras pointing every training day? Now you’re telling too many fibs there mate.

Maybe the likes of Caesar who’s at training every week plus a handful of others but media and people gawking? Lol

Maybe it’s because Dusty is heavy and unfit and let’s face it disinterested could be the reason behind the long delays.

Those factors of him missing games this year haven’t all being factually stated by the club let’s just say that lol

He was clearly the best player on the ground up to that stage. It looks like you are writing Dusty off after one minor hamstring. Give it a rest mate, he deserves more respect than that and your posting reputation is dropping lower than a snakes guts.

Why is it then you dont take your yellow and black hat off for other topics in this forum? Yet you seem infatuated with all this Dustin Martin.

Well that came from nowhere, where am I not showing Dusty respect? if in fact you are responding to something i've reported?
