while he was great yesterday, i doubt he will be given as much room too often as he was yesterday.
the hawks have a decent ball winning midfield but they lack a tagger, or even a strong defensive mid, and dusty took full advantage.

And if that happens and dusty doesn’t have 30 and kick 2 the inevitable “he’s injured” call will be back.

Another really strong game. Doesn't have the don't argue anymore but seems to be working a lot harder to make up for it.

He’s a smart footballer. Has more than one trick. When one stops working, or gets worked out, he goes to the bag and gets another one.

he’s breaking tackles now. Certainly got his mojo back!

Although he didn't lay a tackle all night.

If he wants to be the best he can be, he needs to put the tackle pressure on.

You're right, zero legitimate tackles.

2 x stupid high tackles.

Needs to stop giving away stupid free kicks.

The umps kill us enough.

Some posters here should be embarrassed with their comments on Dusty back in early May.

Spot on

He doesn’t always need to “don’t argue” and he’s successfully using his speed and strength to break away from the tackle
It’s great.
