2018 Rd 1 Post Game Party: Carlton vs Richmond

[Thryleon]

Ironically I think dale Thomas got him in a half decent tackle on Thursday.  Forced an errant disposal from dusty on the wing.

Just lucky I suppose! :

@DJC "Samo would smash him into the ground if he got the opportunity"

As Samo smashed Caddy >
Unfortunately he got done for slinging if I recall correctly.
One thing's for sure, Samo showed no fear of Dusty. I think we've got Gibbs to thank for that.... remember when Gibbs backed away from the thundering Dusty, encouraging young Samo to "go get him son"

Samo has an unorthodox box of tricks himself. Just a matter of time before he smashes him IMO  ;D

And can't wait...reckon Dusty is more hype than reality....

To say "Martin has just had one of the best seasons ever by any AFL/VFL player" (Paul P) is simply emotive BS....

Dangerfield is an infinitely better player.

And Cripps re Dusty. Sure a comparison that can't be made but let's remember Dusty has had four more years in the system.

Yet in 2016, Dusty barely pips Cripps (on stats). Cripps was 20 odd.

Dusty's 2017 in a nutshell, but hey, what do I know ?

- AFL Players Association MVP (Leigh Matthews trophy)

- The AFL Coaches Association champion player of the year award

- All Australian selection (his second)

- Brownlow medal

- Premiership medal

- Norm Smith medal

- Gary Ayres Medal

And also the Jack Dyer medal, which I forgot to mention.

Houli was a far more influential player in the GF - and the deserved Norm Smith winner - but the afl wanted some more Dusty hype...  so voila!

Dusty gets marked down because of the tatts, bad boy dad, and company he keeps but he is a hell of a footballer and has burnt us for about 4 years in a row now......
Dangerfield is a much more likeable, cleanskin, thrilling player to watch but Martin is just as effective if you look at the results and not just the packaging he comes in...

You know the old saying LP.  Even a broken clock is right twice a day!!!
