I don’t think he is, despite ‘quantity’ stats.
I think Marty is a better mark overall - he has a higher leap, is more agile in the air and has better hands. I am also a Dea fan.
Looks like Marty might be a starter in the next VFL practice match this Saturday at Craigieburn.
Lets hope it goes well for him. I think he was seen in a match sim at training last Friday, so it will be a first step to get back to AFL level.

All the very best to Marty for a successful and safe return back to senior football. Getting him and Francis together doing intercept after intercept will be a potent strength to our backline.
