Had to be played at some stage to see if he can still cut it at AFL level - The ball is in his court.

I would have thought his VFL form warranted being next in line for a medium defender role and not for list management purposes as you insinuate.

Our season is still well and truly alive as is Marty

I think the VFL wrap mentioned he took 6 intercept marks in a half against Port Melbourne.

I see no reason why he can’t be just as effective, even if he may be a little rusty.
 
It's kind of been lost in the whole "Cale Hooker is god" thing, but how good was it to see Marty get through unscathed?

13 touches, plenty of pressure acts and fists over the top. Good to see that his injury hasn't changed the way he plays.

Keep him in.

Not taking him long to remind people how good he was becoming before injury.

I'll admit to not being sure how he'd fit in our new look backline but he can stay there as long as he wants. No matter the situation he just makes good decisions
Yeah, I feel guilty for even suggesting he might be trade bait.
