Richmond great Dustin Martin has announced his 15-year AFL career is over.
The three-time Norm Smith medallist, triple premiership player, Brownlow medallist, four-time All Australian, three-time Gary Ayers medallist, and dual Jack Dyer Medal winner told teammates on Tuesday morning of the decision to end his 15-year career.
“I will be forever grateful for the love and the support I have received from the people here. To my teammates, the brotherhood that we all share is what I value most, as well as the bond with the staff and coaches… thank you to all of you.“To the Tiger Army, I have always felt loved and supported throughout my career, and for that, I will be forever grateful. The memories that we have created together will live with me forever. Thank you.
“But I think Dustin would be most proud of what he was able to achieve playing for a team, for our team, and the magnificent role he was able to play within that system, which let him be every bit the footballing genius that he was always destined to be.
