stefan martin worth a risk?

[dejan]

would anyone take a punt on stefan martin?

[Speculator]

If leuwy or longer get injured I'll pick him for sc. Needs to be guaranteed some decent ruck time.

Could be an option, but personally wont be taking the risk.

His main competition will be Jordan Lisle. From a few different reports I've read about the Intra Club match, Martin showed a bit more than Lisle.

Voss has stated in the past about sharing the Ruck load 60/40 with Leuy and someone else, So if Martin is selected he will get some good time in the middle which should equate to good scoring. In addition to Voss's statement Leuy spent a bit of time at Full Forward in the match.

A few concerns would be if Brown / Lisle and Martin all get a game, One of the last 2 will most likely get subbed. Also Longer is having a good preseason and has come on in leaps and bounds and could pinch a few games here and there. For his price you'd want a little more guarantee
