Essendon running machine Nic Martin equals club record in thrilling win over St Kilda

Essendon running machine Nic Martin has written his name into the club record books in the Bombers’ thrilling win over St Kilda on Saturday evening. Martin did as he pleased across half-back to rack up an extraordinary 44 disposals , as well as eight marks. It obliterated his previous best and was the equal most ever in club history, joining teammate Darcy Parish, who has achieved the mark twice.

The Saints had one final roll of the dice but youngster Mattaes Phillipou blazed away with a minute to go, ignoring an option to centre the ball and instead kicked it out on the full. As St Kilda charged again, Essendon ruckman Sam Draper took a vital mark in defensive 50 to clinch the match for the Bombers. Just as he did in 2021, Stringer is delivering his best in a contract year, finishing with three crucial goals for the Bombers.
