It's only the morons in the meedja that have got their noses out of joint over Dustin not doing an interview. The average punter would be far more understanding of the situation and really couldn't care less.
Another beat up.

He just makes us better.
The club was stupid. The weeks he missed they shouldve had a cupboard cut out playing out of the goal square

As the great man richo said
Now that he is in the media he sees this from two angles and understands the importance of tv/media rights to a sport. If there was no media/tv sponsors then there would be no money paying for afl and their employees including players.
He thinks Dusty should do interviews when asked but his 1st game back probably wasn’t the best time to ask. Ask in a few weeks when he has settled back in

Unfortunately, that position is too sensible for people like Magoo, Mince Whateley and co. to understand.
It's also insulting to the viewing audience that people are anxiously waiting for some cliched response to a an often obvious question. I'm not sure what sport the immediate postgame interview works.
The other viewpoint is that the enigma that is Dusty draws attention to the game. People would have tuned in to see him play. The fact he hasn't spoken draws even more intrigue, resulting in more attention to the game. The media sponsors should be thankful that they have someone like Dusty in the competition and the attention brought by Dusty's game far outweighs any attention given to some shallow / pre-rehearsed words.
Let's all be really clear here. What Fox were trying to achieve was totally for their own benefit. The fans (and what they supposedly want to hear) have absolutely nothing to do with it. Embarrassing!

There are no stupid ideas, just stupid people
That's going into the Catphrase Hall of Fame where it will sit comfortably alongside Luigi board, escape goat, filet minion, statue of limitations and gorilla warfare.
How good was it to have him back? I had a smile on my face all day.
He ust lifts the side, the aura he brings to our games will never be matched .

It's a bit like how the nongs at head office think blaring music at every interval adds to the "game day" experience. I'm quite happy to go and watch a game of footy and have a chat to fellow spectators in the intervals. Unfortunately the volume of the speakers preclude such pleasant activities now.
What the hell??
Now we have a major article in the HS by Peter Everett telling the world how Dusty is a perfect fit for Sydney.
Why is there this constant blather about Dusty leaving Richmond?
BTW, he still has 2 years on his contract with us.
For some unknown reason there are those who wish to prise him away from Tigerland.

Clicks. Their job is to generate add revenue, not to inform. Outrage sells big. Look at invermectin.
He would be a great fit for Sydney and if he really wants to go, let him go. He owes us nothing. Buddy will retire soon and Sydney has always needed a marque player.
Given DM's outstanding football resume and he is still a contracted player, they would have to come up with a "very good" deal....
Or ‘surge mentality’.
I feel like I’ve been under siege from that bastardisation since 2017.
