I still stand as a Tiger that 2:47 is the greatest play I’ve ever seen on a footy field. But there’s one moment later in this game that I feel like barely anyone talks about that solidifies Dusty’s strongest traits in one play. It’s at 3:38, when Jack gives that handball, Dusty gets out the back and runs, and don’t ever ask why he didn’t have the right to have a shot there. But he knew what the right thing to do was for the team, and he chips it to Dan Butler. That play almost sums Dusty up for me. Power, Strength, Speed, Commitment and most importantly of all loyalty, Tigerland won’t be the same without you Dusty.

Retired this week in the most Dustin Martin fashion. One of the most naturally talented players the game has ever seen, well and truly one of the greatest as well. I have only been on this earth 16 years. But for me, his 2017 season alone made him one of the greatest and it is still only beaten by Gary Ablett Jnr’s 2014 form prior to his shoulder injury. I remember my grandfather stating just after this grand final that Dusty 2017’s season was the best he’s ever seen from someone outside of several of Leigh Matthews seasons . Pretty high praise from someone who has seen nearly every great player in our game’s history. Was my favourite player despite the fact I was a pretty one-eyed Hawthorn loving kid at the peak of his powers. And I’ll never forget the miraculous goal he kicked against us in the 2018 Preliminary Final. By far the best I have ever seen live. We were so very fortunate to be here on Earth at the same time as this legendary footballer and witness one of the very best (and perhaps Richmond’s best) to ever grace a football field. If you’re reading this Dusty, enjoy retirement.

Dude was untouchable.

I don’t know why Richmond keep losing, just clone 2017 Dusty a dozen or so times.

Played great dusty still deserved it tho

The people who think he should’ve won the norm must hate dusty because he didn’t really have as good of a game as people claim he did

That barrel in the 4th

No way it’s been 7 years

Yk ur good when u have a 9 min highlight reel on one game

The first goal was in 2023

Beyond inspiring. What a leader and athlete 💛🖤🐐

Hi

Fair few turnovers in this mate

Go Tiges👌😎👍

Love the throat fend offs 🤣 weren't they frees

slay

One word Superstar 3 norm smiths out of 3 grand finals. It's not if but when will they put a statue of this Richmond champion outside the mighty MCG. DUSTY MARTIN SIMPLY THE BEST.

Must be a coach’s dream to have Martin on the team, you can put him anywhere on the ground and he’ll have an immediate impact.

The game that made him

I'm dropping

Roarsome

what a season he had

The country should have a 5 minute silence in honour of Shane Martin to show our respect to Dusty and he's family .At the first game of the season 2022.be awesome REST IN PEACE SHANE MARTIN .

I Feel for Josh,,, he should be left in the forward line,,, He can find it, mark it and kick goals

yellow and black legend . a real cult figure

🦸‍♂️

Goodness gracious me

After hearing him retire I had to come watch some magic. Truely a great superstar. Should of won the Norm Smith this year

Get well soon dusty and come back in 2022 better than ever

oh back when crowds existed

Could this video be any darker

how does that become high contact? maybe cos he got slapped…?

watching all these highlight videos really makes me realise how many more votes be deserved.

the more i watch it the more i realise how wrong the calls that bachar should’ve won it were.

Go the tigers!!!

7:15

the norm smith should been a tie

Go 🐯

I was your 1000th subscriber..Go Tiges

I'm 2 mins in and this is not highlights it's just his disposals

1000th sub

Could you imagine if he gave that kid a fend off lmao

Did you knew tiger won the premiership in 2017 2019 and 2020

Best tiger ever

what the hell is with the dark picture

this bloke played for my local footy team tea tree gully and he is an absolute star at the game I'm friends with his cousin holly and I ask her what jack was like when he was little ahaha

What about that young boy he was not camera shy!! I can still remember him saying Great game you're a champion.and alex said thanks mate. For me that was a super special day the tigers after 37 years won a grand final and my first premiership since I was 8 years old and now they have 3 out of 4 years sometimes I pinch myself because it feels like it's a dream. GO THE MIGHTY TIGERS.

So he missed a couple here which would be pretty much regulation for him. However, this would have altered the outcome.

They’re actually are

Next captain of Richmond
