Dustin Martin

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

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.

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....

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?

 

A case of Premature Emmigration :rolleyes:

oh drats...Tigers not swapping for Adams.... :)^_^:)


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.

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."

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.


Saints have pulled out too apparently.

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

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

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

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.

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

 

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)???

  • 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.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
