DUSTY DUSTS OFF COBWEBS

MCG, MAY 12, 2023 u There was a feeling of deja vu as Dustin Martin wound back the clock against Geelong last Friday night. His four-goal haul in the Tigers’ 24-point win was his best since the corresponding round in 2021 when he booted four goals in Richmond’s narrow four-point victory over GWS at Marvel Stadium. And his previous best? Look away Cats fans – it was the 2020 Grand Final when ‘Dusty’ virtually won the Tigers their 13th flag with a superb display that saw him claim his third Norm Smith Medal. The only good news for the Cats is that unless they play Richmond in finals, that’s the last they will see of Dusty in 2023.
