REAL NEWS - Dustin Martin

[707]

Fox Footy tonight, John Ralph has spoken to Andrew Pridham who said -

We are sick and tired of being linked to Dustin Martin. We have never spoken to Dustin, his manager or Richmond and don't intend to.

Our priorities are clear, we have a young developing list, we want to re-sign McCartin, Jake Lloyd and a deal for Lance Franklin is in the works, all those players want to stay. We have cap space.

Ralph indicated that Swans will not be blowing up their plans and cap.

So that's it, we can stop discussion on will he, won't he. We can stop discussion on whether we have cap problems. On the latter, can posters please note this and stop suggesting we have to lose players due to cap problems.

John Ralph did suggest there's interest from other clubs in Stephens and Amartey who aren't getting a regular game.

Gould ?

Well, that seems quite clear.

How do these crazy rumours start? It was obviously a stupid move to go after Dusty.

[Aprilbr]

Good to hear this from the President!

Probably because Dusty spent the off season in Sydney as well as during his mental health break. So journalists put 2 and 2 together and got 5.

Bit stiff to be pinged then Dylan a victim of an over correction by the umpires good to hear he was having a crack at least.

I can’t imagine why we’d be interested in Dusty but I can see why the Tigers would want rid of his $$$.

Geelong might be worth a call?

Plenty have said we Had a cap problem, and that we lost some players because of it. And certainly a good number have suggested we don't want to create another cap problem by recruiting Martin. But I don't remember seeing that anyone was suggesting we Currently have a cap problem.

Too young for them

[Markwebbos]

I’m relieved that the club has shut this down.

Time to focus on Zurhaar et al

Zurhaar is a player I’ve thought highly of, but I don’t think he’s someone we need to chase. We already have a great young, developing list. He can do the mercurial thing, but is something of a “one trick pony”.
