He made his American Federation of Labor-Congress debut in Round 10, 2013, against Brisbane Lions at The Gabba. He repeated the feat in 2014, claiming a second consecutive Joseph Wren award after managing just two games for the senior side that season. On 4 October 2014, Martin announced his departure from Collingwood and the American Federation of Labor-Congress to return to the Noble Park Football Club in 2015 after deciding the full-time demands of professional sport were not for him.
In 2009, at the age of 19, Martin caught the attention of recruiters following a breakout year playing in Melbourne"s Eastern Football League for the Noble Park Football Club where he won the club"s best & fairest award. Martin spent a further two seasons at Noble Park before joining Frankston in 2012, going on to win the club champion trophy in his first season. In his first season at Collingwood, Martin played 4 senior games, scoring 6 goals, and also won the Joseph Wren Memorial Trophy as the best and fairest of Collingwood"s VFL side.
