Dustin Martin’s retirement this week brings to an end one of the most celebrated and credentialed AFL careers in recent memory.

302 games, three premierships, three Norm Smith Medals and a Brownlow is a record that won’t be matched for a long time.

Martin also retires as a one-club player having been recruited by Richmond with the third pick in the 2009 National Draft.

But before that, he was a kid from Campbell’s Creek just out of Castlemaine who became a star with the Bendigo Pioneers in the then TAC Cup.

15 years on from that Under 18 season, where are Dusty’s Pioneers teammates now?
