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.
For anyone who thinks he didn’t deserve the Norm Smith over Houli just watch this. All those effective disposals with 2 and 3 crows players hanging off him and just finding the space through. Plus 2 direct goal assists including one of Houlis. Sensational game and deserving Norm Smith medallist
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.

Get well soon dusty and come back in 2022 better than ever
Watching in October 2020, 4 days till GF... Dusty might clinch a 3rd norm smith
He sure did
I don't go for Richmond but this was great. Good job👍

Awesome stuff! Keep it up!
Sammy Lewis Iii
Only the special ones at the tiges wear the #4 we are witnessing a future immortal genuine superstar
When dusty puts the hat on the kid lol at the end
Dustin is dust everyone..!!! 👍🏼👍🏼
love the channel, could we get a prestia one? thought he was huge
I never looked at him like that but whatever floats your boat 😂
Go the tigers
the best part was him putting the cap on the boy
they call him dusty for a reason ...he literally dusts all his opponents....often .
Rodney McGiveron they call him dusty because his first name is Dustin
@@tsm0126 And what do they call you ? - 'Nobody' ?? 😂
Fucken oath richo 😂😂

Dusty is one of the greats but Ablett Snr was electrifying.
@Peter Kay Does it matter? Premiership's are a team award. Ablett Snr kicked 9 in a losing GF side.
beldengi his shit
Nothing but a drug dealer
Always difficult comparing between generations , but Dusty's done enough to justify his place in history.👍
@@danidelfini4849 no he has nto
I love bruce and dusty but he isn't the first ever Brownlow winner + Premiership winner in the same season? Jimmy Bartel 2007 Ablett 2009
Yeah a bunch of players have done that. I think he might have meant the Brownlow, Premiership, Norm Smith combo, which had never been done before
The MVP too.
He said the first tiger to do it
Testify_Suindaeei No he didn't
@@MrBen51309 Nobody knew at the time who was going to be the Norm Smith medallist when he made that statement.
Goodness gracious me
Fuckin love the boys
the more i watch it the more i realise how wrong the calls that bachar should’ve won it were.
Roarsome
They’re actually are
i like richmond and they winning
So he missed a couple here which would be pretty much regulation for him. However, this would have altered the outcome.
Taylor Walker PATHETIC. Another failure in a big game.
Lets be honest, Houli should've won it
THE BIG DAWG no chance, not in 2017
