Offer four years and big contract. Don't pay overs with a pick or player of Watts' calibre. Imagine if we could add Martin and Sewell to our midfield. It doesn't look finals bound, but it looks competitive.

The best young mid in the comp and some of you are hand-wring about behaviour?

Get him, get Garlett and any other kid who can win a break because this club is going down the gurgler without mids.

Sometimes he's naughty and I will not tolerate naughtiness.

The Richmond Football Club has been advised by Dustin Martin and his management of their desire to pursue offers from other clubs. The decision comes after months of negotiations, and despite being close to reaching agreement, the advice has been that Dustin wants to consider other options. Given the considerable effort we have put into Dustins development both on and off the field, and our efforts to retain him all season, we are extremely disappointed with this decision, Richmond General Manager of Football, Dan Richardson said. We are proud of the way Dustin has developed as a footballer, and as a person, in his time at Richmond, and we have been steadfast in our view that he is a required player who has an exciting football career ahead of him. However, we understand the business of football, and Dustins right to pursue other opportunities. We have also stated previously that we are determined to adhere to our payment strategy for all of our players, many of whom have already committed to the Club and its future direction during the 2013 season. The Club wont be making any further comment .

Surely worth a chat ....

Tough deal to get done.

I genuinely can not believe this. Here is a player, who we all know can play footy. The tigers have put every sort of procedure into helping him become a good footballer and stay in a position where he could find interests outside of footy to help his maturity. There have been countless mishaps from him and he has time and time again let Richmond down with his unprofessionalism.

Am I being harsh or is he being selfish and unloyal?

Wow i didn't see that coming...thought he would sign.

Interesting addition to our midfield if possible.

Roos did get a flag with Barry Hall on his list...

Do not want a selfish player on our list, big NO by me.

Well I want a good player on our list, so a big YES.

Roosy will be able to mould him into what we need.

Rumour going around St Kilda have offered 650k

Dustin Martin at Si Kilda will be an absolute riot

their culture is the worst by far for off field indiscretions

We should be able to trump any club on $$ and a trade so we'll know soon enough if MFC (Roo's) is interested. I suspect we might be...interested?

Isn't there a rumour somewhere suggesting Martin wanted to move to NSW?

wanted to be closer to family yes

hope somebody gets his signature quickly.it will save us a term of regret

Struggling to see what deals could be done to satisfy Richmond in all this if its not GWS he's going to (and their special poaching rules).

Would Martin be worth our Pick 2?

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
