If the funeral director says that's an unusual request, just say to him..... don't argue.
Please don’t mention my name.
I haven’t been welcome back there since I became Victorian President of the Necrophiliacs Appreciation Society

More Dusty moments? I guess more players are going to drop easy marks, then pick up the ball, hand it to him and get out of his way while others just throw themselves into the fence.

Good times.

Nearly every player when asked what was their favorite Grand Final moment said that Dusty goal, was it the goal or seeing him shrug Danger and leaving him sprawled on the turf that made it so joyous?
I’d say because it is one of the best goals ever kicked. I can say it’s the best I can ever remember seeing.

Had dinner with 6 non-richmond supporting mates last night. Consensus was that it was goal of the year.

Was trying to argue that his first goal was just as good, but was told to stop gloating and topic was changed!

Taken in context, his first goal was the best hes ever kicked IMO.

Probably equal best goal ever, with Kane Lambers iceman boundary slot in the port prelim.

But the last one? I suspect the entire rfc hate dangerfield? And it was deliciously sweet passionfruit icing.

It shows a profound misunderstanding of the game to think Dusty moments are special because they're done in time and space.

There's a reason AFLX was boring garbage.

If there's no congestion, it's just a training drill.

Agreed. It’s like moving the boundary rope in by 30 metres to create more Viv Richards moments.
The exciting bit is watching a superstar do a hard thing that nobody else can do.

exactly. Dusty has his best moments when it's congested and tough. All 4 of his goals he had someone hanging off him at certain stages. Perhaps Hocking is after more Brad Hill and Crying Miers moments. Hocking has NFI.
