Across 27 matches Martin sustains one of the higher tackle counts for a lock, averaging over six per game with single-game peaks of 17, pointing to a player who carries genuine defensive responsibility beyond the set piece. His carrying numbers are steady rather than explosive, but the consistency across more than a thousand minutes tells of someone used as a reliable, high-usage forward in both domestic and international rugby. Two tries add a threat-line dimension without defining his profile, which is built first on work rate.
