Itā€™s unfortunate about Cox and Reid but yeah in facts, Martin is better than all of them since mid season drafted

How do you see him improving?

2340

Iā€™m not sure that his handballing from a chair skills are good enough to be the best.

2341

Is that a Tsatas or Clakko type chair?

Hire this mans fitness coach that he used over the pre season.

His game is pretty good. I just think he needs some more strength and conditioning. Heā€™s quite a powerful runner, but funds it difficult to break tackles.

followed closesly by VOSS & Tsatas

Heā€™s very nearly the complete package offensively. As with most players on the list, needs work on his defensive game.
He finds space so instinctively, but that can hurt you when the ball is turned over. Must be one of the harder talents to deprogram.
I think that with time heā€™ll read the game better as to when to break and when to zone off. Made a rundown tackle or two this year which is a good sign.
As mentioned above, add some strength to his frame and no reason he canā€™t consistently be a top 5 bnf player.

With that said, his defensive game is better than most of our midfield

Weā€™ve essingtonā€™d him

Used to be the most reliable kick into the f50, now half are turnovers

Our skills coaches are so ā– ā– ā– ā– ā– ā– ā–  terrible

Glides through traffic with supreme confidence.

I thought his ball winning and movement through traffic was a huge step up this week after a couple of flat weeks, but strangely some uncharacteristic kicking errors. Excellent game overall though. Bizarre to think heā€™s this good and wasnā€™t on an AFL list at all 15 months ago.

Early on when the defence was getting pummeled he was dropping back to get us out of the ā– ā– ā– ā– . So classy in traffic which made the difference.l.

I didnt think that was an excellent game from him, he and Langford honestly almost cost us the victory with their uncharacteristic turnovers in the last.

Ill chalk it down to fatigue and forget about it, doesnt change the fact heā€™s a gun.
