Date of Birth: 1/9/2006  

Bio:  A powerful utility capable of playing on all three lines but settling mostly as a midfielder, Martin is a fierce competitor with clean hands who is a smart decision-maker with a fantastic desire to work on her game. Taking her game to another level in 2024, Martin was named in the SANFLW Team of the Year after averaging 16 disposals, five tackles and four inside 50s across 11 senior matches for the Woodville-West Torren Eagles.  Showing her versatility, Martin was named an U18 All Australian as a defender by averaging 18 disposals and three rebound 50s per game for South Australia in the National Championships.  

What GIANTS AFLW List Manager Tyson Bourke says: “Grace is a player who has had major development the past 12 months off the back of her hard work during the off season working on her game. She has played senior football at Eagles for the past three years. Grace has high football IQ and an excellent ability to use the football well with her decision making and skill execution. We think Grace will be able to play a number of roles in our system moving forward.”
