The 54-year-old “is in for the fight of his life”, according to ex-AFL star Brad Hardie, who disclosed Martyn’s health situation this week.
“We hope he can recover because it’s extremely grave,” stated Hardie.
His condition remains serious after falling ill on Boxing Day and being taken to a hospital in Queensland, as per sources close to the family.
