Martin "Marty" McKinnon (born 5 July 1975 in Adelaide) is a former Australian rules footballer who played with Adelaide, Geelong and the Brisbane Lions in the Australian Football League (AFL).

McKinnon was recruited by Adelaide in the 1992 AFL Draft, with their first ever national draft pick. He was the youngest player on Adelaide's list at the time and played for Central District in the SANFL when not appearing with Adelaide. He made his AFL debut late in the 1994 AFL season and was a regular in the team the following year, playing mostly as a wingman.

A left footer, McKinnon was traded to Geelong at the end of the 1995 season in a trade which helped bring Darren Jarman to Adelaide. He played in Geelong's first 18 games in 1996 and also a Qualifying Final. In 1997 he did not miss a game and appeared in two further finals. He had been used as a small forward that season and kicked 23 goals.[/URL]

For memory and i could be wrong - he had a few injuries in his time at Brisbane, was offered a reduced contract and knocked it back.. could have been a3 time premiership player.. Can anyone confirm this?
