No chances taken as Dusty stays on Coast
RICHMOND superstar Dustin Martin is likely to stay on the Gold Coast for at least another week as he takes “every precaution known to man” after suffering a lacerated kidney two weeks ago.
Martin was released from a Gold Coast hospital last Sunday but has not yet been cleared to fly despite recovering well.
The 30-year-old did not require surgery but does need ongoing medical attention and will not participate in contact training for at least three months. Martin’s manager, Ralph Carr, said on Friday the three-time premiership star would remain in Queensland for the immediate future.
