A selection of Marty’s significant on-and-off field achievements include:

– Games Record Holder (266)
– Hall of Fame (2021)
– Life Member (1997)
– Premiership Player (1997)
– Premiership Football Manager (2005, 2020)

– Multi-Year State Representative

All involved at South Fremantle Football Club wish Marty all the best for the next chapter of his career. We look forward to seeing him in the stands and supporting his beloved Buldogs long into the future.

Marty will conclude his role on Friday April 21.
