Dustin Martin has spoken to his deported father, Shane, for the first time in a post-match interview live on 3AW Football.

Dusty spoke to the 3AW Football team straight after the team song, but when he later heard Shane Martin was on the line, he was quick to jump back on the microphone.

“I wish you were here,” Martin said in an emotional interview.

Dusty: “We’ll do it again next year and hopefully you’re there.”
