been watching him throughout the NAB cup, and have had him in my team after him being reccomended early in the year. but the kid has not shown me much, so am wondering if he is really worth all that money??

so, why is he in your team (if he is)

Nope. Can't handle a tag for shower. All the attention in the world has gone onto the Tigers this preseason and everyone will know Dusty is tagable, so guess who keeps getting tagged?

im not going near him. has looked shocking this pre season!!!

felsty · March 20, 2012, 01:54:00 PM

how can you say his preseason has been shocking??
absolutely dominated against fremantle and geelong, his first quarters in both he got 10+ possies and kicked goals, subbed off both of those games but had numbers to proud of for a full games work
then against gws got tagged pretty hard, must say he didnt do amazing, but he still had 21 possies and had some sort of influence.. the kid has been killing it and i think you would be crazy not to jump on

I have tagging concerns as well as tough early draw ones. Thought he's looked OK in the NAB. Is he really that bad at handling tags though?

cortez · March 20, 2012, 02:08:20 PM

there you go, he got tagged heavily by gws an didnt have an impact. what will happen when a good side tags him?

Good point. Sure you're not trying to put people off Martin so you can have him though? :)

cortez · March 20, 2012, 02:28:34 PM

definately not. would never do that. honestly you would never pick martin. silly choice!

Martin has an extremely tough draw first up.
Got tagged out of the game by an 18 year old. Definitely an upgrade target - if he can even break into your team.

He is and will be good player but at his price he is playing with the Premiums and I don't think he'll be in the top 5 or 6 forwards this year. On that basis I'm looking elsewhere as I don't see him in my round 22 side.

LOL - It's NAB cup. Did all the other guns with low scored get tagged out of the game by 18 year olds. Big LOLs my friend.

If you're not getting him now. Don't get him.

Dustin Martin a 2012 upgrade target ;D I've heard it all.
