As it looks like Scott Selwood will be offered the captaincy at West Coast he's off the table. Surely we have a red hot crack at Dusty. This kid could be anything. Risky as it is when guys of this calibre are available, in the position we are in, put an offer to his management that will make him look twice. How much easier does it seem to bargain these days with a credible coach at the helm?

 

Quoted today Richmond have already offered him $500k and he wants $550k plus

Thats alot of bananas

HaHaHa, bananas you say, well then..... how can we work this out???

Roos pretty much said what we already know.. but he danced around the pointed question of "would you take him if he wanted to come"... in typical roos fashion he danced around it without answering it.

I think we are deeper into this than many think

 

Do not want!

Talk to Richmond supporters. The guy shines for 50% of the game, goes missing the other 50%.

Not to mention his off-field tendencies which I know of through an ex Tiger.

Would be a horrendous pick up.

Martin is well and truly worth going after. We have to start putting the footy side of the club first, as PJ put it a short time ago which means putting Dusty's footy ability into perspective - he'll come into our side as our best midfielder, no doubt.

Money wise, we can comfortably afford to pay him 600K... I know for a fact there is a player on our list who barely cracks a game yet is making 300K a year - imagine how many of them there are? At least with Martin we'd be paying someone to play for the MFC and not the Casey Scorpions.

Considering every major news outlet is saying that we are front-runners to land him, I would say a few people think we are into him.

That 50% is better than probably every single melbourne players' full game. Perhaps except Jones. Man, what a tandem they would be.

We must get the colcher rite. I agwee.

Get a life loser.


Not for me,

Bad manager screwed richmond with false offers last time now paying masive overs, father linked to bikie groups supposed ex bikie leader, hangs around connors STILL, has a full time mentor and hasnt got the petrol tickets to run a game out as every tigers fan knows.

Smart Richmond ppl dont want him nor will they pay massive overs.

for mine NO THANKS

He averaged 24 touches and a goal a game this year.. he does go missing at times but the guy's a ball magnet and match winner on his day.

Unfortunately I'm aware of his off-field tendencies too through local Bendigo/Castlemaine lads around his age.. which is enough to put me off.

I can't believe all the people saying no to him.

He is bound to win a Brownlow under Roos

I wonder if he ever pictured himself in a collar? Doesn't seem right somehow.

Suits a badboy i think

Hhahahha :)

See, even our jumpers are ready for him

Considering we offered Scully a massive amount, I'd much rather offer someone like Dusty that type of benjamin.

At least Martin already has the points on the board.

Dusty is a more dominant player than Cotchin and Lids.

When Jake King has blokes like Toby Mitchell hanging around Richmond, there is little wonder Dusty wants out.

The temptation is just too much.

Welcome to Demonland Dustbin.

I am sure Roos has factored in his social associations and his endurance and would not be considering him if he had not sought insurance/assurance to cover things. If we can acheive it and retain pick 2 [by not losing it in a trade] then we should consider. The only pick ahead of us is GWS and they have are likely to instead focus on key position players. We could be even cleverer and asking him to wait until the Pre-season draft so that we retain pick 2 in the National Draft.

See, even our jumpers are ready for him

You sir are officially my favorite Demonland member.

Why thank you

So you are saying u don't want a player who gives 50% which is 45% more than most on our list currently?

Interesting.

Why thank you

Looks great in a Dees jumper.

That looks terrible! He looks like he's wearing a kids superman costume. He'd look better in a B&W jail bar jumper. Suits his rep.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
