As good as he is and most of the AFL community including Dusty himself knows how good he is , he is just happy being himself and he doesnt care what the outside world thinks because of his belief in himself ,hes just happy doing his thing and letting the result take care of itself , hes 1 very humble and unique human being. And we are the lucky ones who get to witness his journey. A true role model on and off the ground ,RESPECT
MUFC soccer will never be the number 1 sport in Australia. It has to be played in summer to get noticed. Soccer is a great sport in that it allows people that aren’t courageous enough to play AFL to kick a ball around.
For someone so good, he is amazingly humble. Which makes him even better! I love it when he leads the huddle. That's when you know good stuff is coming!
Have loved him from his early days, and easily the best player in it. His humility, commitment, fitness is extraordinary. Could well push the Abletts and Carey, Lethal as GOAT
Truly an incredible human on ALL levels - focused,fair and self-less. His love for his team mates and the game and desire to help others and give his all say it all. Good on YOU Dustin 'Dusty' Martin.You are a true champion - a legend.Yake good care post footy mate. From a Carlton supporter who LOVES the game and appreciates a real champion. THANK YOU.
So Dustin genuinely doesn't like doing interviews. This was tough for him. I'm not a Richmond fan but if you don't admire how good this man is at the game, then you need help. I think I enjoyed mostly listening to his almost ethereal overview of what the game is to him & his child-like enjoyment each time he goes out to play. There is an intensity there that is quite scary but it's tempered by a warmth I never expected. Some people are shy because underneath they're actually a-holes & they usually know they are. I don't believe this is true of Dustin. I get the impression he is genuinely shy but he'll put up with morons for as long as he has to then walk away at his first opportunity. There is an inherent kindness in the way he pervades Nick's interview with his intensity & it's obviously challenging for Nick. I dare say he's probably a bit moody at times but in this interview it was warmth despite not wanting to be there. Incredibly impressed with his insight into who he is & a bit surprised as well. No, I didn't expect that at all. Dustin above all knows who he is.
It’s funny how there are so many people out there who think he is overrated player but then what he did in the finals against cats I Think it should shut them up...
@MUFC Congrats on having the most irrelevant post on this thread. Just because something is popular doesn't mean it is good or important. McDonald's, daytime tv, cigarettes and talking smack are all pretty popular too.... Anyway soccer is an overated sport with all its nil-all and 1-nil results not to mention diving for frees.....boring
In fact not just boring but embarrassing. Supposed athletes screaming and crying on the ground as if their leg was broken then up again in 5 min running around. And they call it "the beautiful game"....I get annoyed at someone in AFL just flopping for a free let alone turning on waterworks....ugly, shameful stuff
Two of my footy heroes, the great Nick Riewoldt and the spectacular Dustin Martin. My son went to high school with Dusty, apparently a really nice quiet kid, not a show off even though extremely talented even then.Fine young man.
@@patrickbateman6885 Yes , But from 1980 onward, his later year's.... I know 9 B&F, 4 Premierships and also a Coleman..But also had Knights ,Tuck, Moore Wallace Buckenara Brereton Goss But in my opinion Martin is class & a gentleman.. 3 premierships 3 Norm Smith, Brownlow 6 years to go sky's the limit...
@@tommoutsos7882 So you never saw Lara or Tendulkar but some 22yo kid who has never played for Australia "will probably be the best batsman I will ever see", jumping the gun much? Please explain how you arrived at that conclusion. That is not him by the way.
People are always going to hate on the best... But just look at his record and Awards clearly a future Hall of Fame inductee and eventually a spot on the AFL Legends List is inevitable.. A true man that bleeds Yellow and Black
Well here it goes... I was born into a Carlton clan, my Poppa played for them. So from birth Ive not been a big fan of Richmond, ha. But I friggen love this bloke! What a humble fairdinkum young man. And how many footy players would do an interview and show such emotion for the love of his old man. There needs too be more kids like this, hopefully all the young fans not just Tigers fans but footy fans can see this bloke and how he carries himself on and off the field. I have a mate whos a Tigers diehard and took his young son and daughter too a family day. (I think that’s what it’s called?) and Dustin Martin was right there among the kids, he even sat on the ground with them and totally inspired my mates young daughter to follow her dream to be a “girl Dusty”.. now, he didn’t have to do that, and spend time with young fans like that. But I hear he’s like that all the time, it’s not put on, that’s him. I really hope for your club and all your mad fans that Dustin gets the chance to be a one club player for the rest of his career, that would be special and he seems like a staunch loyal footy player. I recon he might? Don’t get me wrong, Carlton and probably every team in AFL would gladly have him. But I really hope the Tigers look after him and his family. I just saw today that he’s taken some time off to grieve for his old man. I really hope he gets the time he needs and that he’s got the support around him. Well I never thought I’d comment on a Richmond TH-cam page haha. This young bloke got me inspired too! Cheers from a Staunch Blues fan but also a huge Dusty fan. And he’s really only hitting his straps, I don’t think he’s even got to his peak yet. Bloody Lucky Richmond again haha.
Well written, love it. 👍people forget pretty quickly when Champs go out of the game for injury ect, he's totally invested for 2023 and have a feeling he'll be back better than ever next year.
Have loved watching him progress from where he was to where he is both as player and person. Whether he is the best of all time doesn't matter. He does things on a footy field that I have never seen before. Others have too to be fair but Dusty has some signature moves and a presence that just makes you feel something is about to happen. Love this bloke
The thing I love about AFL accolades is that they reward being the Fairest and the Best on ground. If you end up at the Tribunal, you are out of contention. Having players that are this good, yet show teamwork, leadership, camaraderie and good sportsmanship is a wonderful thing. Fancy the awards coming your way being voted on by the referees and the commentators and the opposition players - they are true awards for deserving greats of the game. Nick was also one of them! Good on you Dusty, his award speeches are always too short, coz he is genuinely humbled by the attention.
He is the benchmark player of 2021 and has been for the last two or three years. Being a Cats supporter it's not that hard to admit it now. Had he not been in the Tigers grand final side last year, it might have been enough for the Cats to sneak across the line. Please retire now Dusty.
Peripheral vision, instinct, belief he has it all... It's no fluke where he is... I'm a mad Rugby man but this guy makes me want to watch AFL. The guys a Freeeaak!!
Left out of the All-Australian midfield last year, give yourselves a pat on the back selectors. Who wouldn't want Christian Petracca, Cam Guthrie, Jack Steele and Taylor Adams in there ahead of Dustin Martin? Perfectly understandable.
The expression you are searching for is "fast becoming", but Dusty is way better and 'vastly' more accomplished than Buddy already. Best player since Ablett Snr and a long way to go yet. Will end up with at least 4 or 5 flags + another Brownlow. He's only 29 years of age now, and who would bet against another Norm Smith?
Will Pucovski of course great player 👍just a difference of opinion & the game has changed so much but yes he was a fantastic player. Ps I’m watching biffs bumps & brawlers right now 👍🤣🦋
Never judge a book by its cover dusty is a amazing human being people think he is a bad person because of his tattoos and his father. how does that have to do with anything about A bad person GO TIGERS 🐯
Richmond fans... I’d really appreciate it if you could point me in the direction of any books, documentarys, interviews etc where Dustin or whoever talks about what he was like as a young kid? How he got possessed to play Footy, was it early on or in his teens etc. I like to show my kids how our hero’s started off wether is footy played, musicians, artists or whatever. They find it really interesting and so do I. So thanks in advance if you’ve got any recommendations? Cheers
Being a saints supporter i naturally rate Nick as one of our greats and Dusty of course in the top few best ever of all time and very normal young bloke considering.One thing Nick is better at is marking,down low up high doesnt matter.Not criticizing Dusty but he doesnt get into getting off the ground not that it matters when you can do everything else.WHAT, i just heard him say he was a saints fan😭😭😭😭
Since many people keep coming back to Carey, Ablett, Mathews etc... I just wanted to give a shout out to Mick Conlan (Fitzroy for the younger generation). Although not in the same freak zone as these guys, it's worth pointing out that he had the build and professionalism of a FULL TIME FOOTBALLER when the game was virtually a part time sport. He would have slotted into ANY side today. Built like a brick shithouse he would run through opposition with contempt. Don't forget the "tv aspect" of the time made everyone look tall and skinny and he still presented like a bull. Would have loved to have seen Lethal and Mick collide for a footy.....or maybe not - could have been tragic
i'm certainly not a tiger fan.....and i've always said Carey was the greatest ive seen (not a north fan either) but Dusty is just about the best i've seen now. an absolute freak. wish he had gone pick 1 or 2!
Melbourne fan? On the bright side at least Scully and Trengove can attend all Richmond home games at the MCG from the comfort of the Members' stand. Imagine passing on Dustin Martin, twice. OUCH!
@@FranticMonster11 The Tiges passed on Lance Franklin twice when they took Brett Deledio at #1 and, ahem, Richard Tambling at #4. The Hawks said if you insist we'll have Jarryd Roughead at #2 and Buddy at #5. Speaking of all time draft disasters Richmond also selected Richard Lounder and Anthony Banik with #1 picks in the late '80s. Who and who? Exactly.
Dusty is a great footballer, but how people can call him the best player they have ever seen baffles me. There have been so many champion players throughout the history of the game and the fact that people disregard them just to name dusty as the best player of all time is an insult. Wayne carey, gary ablett snr and leigh matthews just to name a few, keep in mind none of them won a brownlow, stats don’t determine every outcome.
Maybe it's cos Dusty both finds and creates space and time in what has been an era of congestion. It's what makes him stand out. Not saying this makes him the best ever but it sure is eye-catching.
True, a lot of people only focus on the result (which is a really toxic mindset), but in reality, numbers are just numbers, don’t mean anything, if the score was say 79 - 77, the result says the loser was almost good enough but not quite, when in reality the losing team could have not taken certain chances and had missed opportunities, and had they taken them they would have won by 4 goals.
It was very disheartening to hear them both speak about Dustins father and how how was looking forward to seeing his father watch him in the near future play in Australia..and reflecting on what has happened in the past two years. His past few years have dropped he has also had some injuries however I can fully understand what loosing a parent can do to someone in so many ways. Dustin is a very emotional person and his dad was everything to him anc its left a huge void one that I believe has caused him lots of self reflection. Sometimes that can sturr up things that hold someone back. I really believe Richmond especially dimma let the side down all his talk about Richmond being a family Club and what it meant to the Players. Then he leaves his wife and children for a women that worked at the club. Family man my backside.😢
Some players can get carry way with AFL lifestyle, but not Jack. Jack seem have paid attention some of the pit falls that bring great players down and now seem be a level headed player. I just wish Jack was playing at Collingwood.
Someone has to knock them off the top of the ladder and give another club a chance to be in the limelight. And when the hell is "Buddy" coming back? He's been out 18 months...
The recency bias by nick is ridiculous, “the best player the game has ever seen”. Look don’t get me wrong dusty is a freak and a once in a lifetime player, but I can’t even put him in the top 10 just because he has 3 norm smiths. To say that is just disrespectful to greats before him, Judd Ablett and buddy are still ahead of him for best players of the last 20 years. It grinds my gears when I hear these teens saying his the “GOAT” or top 5 player ever, just Shows how many kids these days don’t know about the history of the game.
He’s in the top 10 easily. I rate the 2 Abletts above him, Carey, Matthew’s and a couple of others. But as an impact player and standing up when it’s needed it’s hard to go past him b
@@julianmreidmusic6634 I wouldn’t pay him Above a west coast Judd, buddy Franklin and a lot of other greats. But he’s definitely top 20 and has potential to be a top 10-15
Makes sense. "Don't get me wrong", Dusty is a "once in a lifetime player", but not in the top 3 "best players of the last 20 years". OK. The irony of bitching about "recency bias" and "these teens" who "don't know about the history of the game" then claiming Ablett Jnr was better than Martin is very amusing stuff. The guy was not even the best player named Gary in his own immediate family. Then to carry on about disrespect then actually say "just because he has 3 Norm Smiths" really drives the stupidity home. It grinds my gears when delusional haters come out with such bullshit but thanks for the laughs Nan :D
@@truefunksoul8638 lol I never said ablett jnr was better than his old man, I was referring to the best players of the last 20 years, and Gazza, Judd and buddy are still ahead of him. You know what grinds my gears 😂when kids like you think having 3 norm smiths (2 that he deserved)solidifies you as top 5 or the GOAT, it doesn’t. Provide evidence that puts dusty above those other 3 and many more greats.
Seems every five years we bang on about ‘the best player the game has seen’. Three Norm Smiths? Fantastic but blokes like Ron Barassi and Percy Beames might have accomplished that too if there’d been such an individual award in their playing days.
Never judge a book by it's cover. Tatts, bikie father. What a talented , down to earth guy.
So true everyone thinks he’s a bad guy because of the tattoos but he’s so lovely and kind
Bachar Houli’s book really shows that in the parts where Dusty is talked about
@@mufc3316 ok but who asked?

He doesn't have enough tattoos for my liking.
He's still fucking hot 🔥
For what ever reason....
Someone has to knock them off the top of the ladder and give another club a chance to be in the limelight.
And when the hell is "Buddy" coming back? He's been out 18 months...
Buddy back this week

You dont have to ever grow up Dusty . In my 40s and still havent.
When’s he’s from where u live and play footy for the club he played at and played on the same oval 🤡🤡🤡🤡not tryna flex🤡
The recency bias by nick is ridiculous, “the best player the game has ever seen”. Look don’t get me wrong dusty is a freak and a once in a lifetime player, but I can’t even put him in the top 10 just because he has 3 norm smiths. To say that is just disrespectful to greats before him, Judd Ablett and buddy are still ahead of him for best players of the last 20 years. It grinds my gears when I hear these teens saying his the “GOAT” or top 5 player ever, just Shows how many kids these days don’t know about the history of the game.
He’s in the top 10 easily. I rate the 2 Abletts above him, Carey, Matthew’s and a couple of others. But as an impact player and standing up when it’s needed it’s hard to go past him b
@@julianmreidmusic6634 I wouldn’t pay him Above a west coast Judd, buddy Franklin and a lot of other greats. But he’s definitely top 20 and has potential to be a top 10-15
Makes sense. "Don't get me wrong", Dusty is a "once in a lifetime player", but not in the top 3 "best players of the last 20 years". OK. The irony of bitching about "recency bias" and "these teens" who "don't know about the history of the game" then claiming Ablett Jnr was better than Martin is very amusing stuff. The guy was not even the best player named Gary in his own immediate family. Then to carry on about disrespect then actually say "just because he has 3 Norm Smiths" really drives the stupidity home. It grinds my gears when delusional haters come out with such bullshit but thanks for the laughs Nan :D
@@truefunksoul8638 lol I never said ablett jnr was better than his old man, I was referring to the best players of the last 20 years, and Gazza, Judd and buddy are still ahead of him. You know what grinds my gears 😂when kids like you think having 3 norm smiths (2 that he deserved)solidifies you as top 5 or the GOAT, it doesn’t. Provide evidence that puts dusty above those other 3 and many more greats.
Seems every five years we bang on about ‘the best player the game has seen’. Three Norm Smiths? Fantastic but blokes like Ron Barassi and Percy Beames might have accomplished that too if there’d been such an individual award in their playing days.
He is a better player than Leigh Mathews.
You’re off ur head
How many of Leigh's games did you go and see? I bet zero! Can't even spell his fucken name right.

@@jasonevans4291 so now awards mean everything do they?
Drug addict there is no way he’s better
I bet he's "getting into the girls side"
