Brian Martella (born 28 November 1951) is a former Australian rules footballer who played with Geelong in the Victorian Football League (VFL).[1]

He made his debut against Essendon on 1 May 1971, but had little opportunity to impress as he only came onto the ground in the last quarter as a replacement for Wayne Closter.[2]
