Not sure why mfc put an article up on our website saying we were interested in martin if we never were...

[Machsy 2,858]

It's by Peter Ryan from AFL media, not by the club.

The club would've put it up because there's very little out there concerning MFC at the moment.

If you read the article, it's obvious there's little to it.

GWS have pulled out.

His offer from the Tigers might be down to 400k now. Ralph Carr you idiot.

GWS have pulled out.

Scully said no?

[MadAsHell 4,212]

This could turn out to be one of the worst managment decisions of all time!

He must have plenty of skeletons in the closet.

But watch this space as far as Hawthorn are concerned....

[Ted Lasso 19,285]

Biggest stuff ups of the year,

Brisbane sacking Voss to chase Roos and losing half their players and still not having a coach?

Dustin Martin wanting to explore outside offers, asking for way too much and getting rejected publicly by the two worst clubs in the AFL?

[pitmaster 3,513]

Tiges are welcome to him.

They are made for each other.

A case of Premature Emmigration

[beelzebub 23,313]

oh drats...Tigers not swapping for Adams....

[PJ_12345 1,098]

There is a reason why Ralph Carr is such a bad manager and only managers four players.

Richmond's offer was on the table for 18 months yet they still stuffed it up.

[Machsy 2,858]

Would Dusty maybe be able to sue Ralph Carr for professional negligence, for the discrepancy between the amount originally offered Martin, and the amount they offer now?

I hope so. It would teach the agent, and all agents a valuable lesson, and I think this sorry situation is one of Carr's creation.

"Trust me, Dustin. See how it worked last year with Travis Cloke? I even had him come out and back you on this decision publicly. You'll be fine, and you'll get the money you want."

pigeons said they might be interested as long as fev says ok

[mauriesy 7,261]

Clubs (Melbourne, GWS) have pulled out of offers for Martin.

He runs the risk of finding himself back at Richmond with a lower offer than he started with.

[Machsy 2,858]

Saints have pulled out too apparently.

[Dr. Gonzo 24,187]

Saints have pulled out too apparently.

Surely they were never a chance considering the coach warned his players from even hanging around Martin???

[Grimes Times 1,278]

Whats the chance of Martin not going back to Rich and just putting himself into the Pre Season draft?

How do you know it wasn't Dustin or his Dad insisting on a figure. A Manager would have to act on instructions.

[whatwhat say what 22,699]

I don't see how he can stay at the Tigers.

imo, ralph is being right royally rogered....

[Sir Why You Little 36,981]

Little Dusty will end up getting $100 a game if the Tigers can be bothered to open the door to him...

This is truly quite funny...he was about 5 minutes from signing a huge deal...and he pulled it out...

Little Dusty is a bit dim.

[Machsy 2,858]

That's very true. Pure speculation on my behalf.

[PaulRB 6,349]

This has got a way to run. He will end up somewhere.

I'd not write us out totally yet...

I mean would we take him with pick 2 in the PSD if available (i.e. for nothing)???

[dee-luded 2,959]

I don't see how he can stay at the Tigers.

andrew, I don't expect he will.
