How did he do the knee anyway? Was it a freaky one like Gibcus landing badly from a mark? That would be best result.

Was just after he pulled a different muscle in the shower
Pretty stoked we picked up young Taj, as he offers us something we don't have at the moment. Especially with Shai departing. Hopefully he can become a more consistent performer than Shai was, as he has an x-factor about him.

Comparing this kid to Lethal is an insult...

Disagree
Hotton stands on heads when trying to take a mark
Matthews used to just stand on heads if his opponents were on the ground.

Hotton is more like Shai Bolton than Shai was at the same age.

Welcome young fella!
First player to receive a lifetime ban on debut, coming on as sub
From memory, his season leading up to the injury, he’d become a dead eye kick for goal
Not so much after
of unsound mind

So excited about this kid. Great pick up, worth the risk. Could pay off big time.
A few interesting things in this article. Was playing with plantar fasciitis, not training and still killing it before his injury.
Also said he got some texts reassuring him about being drafted, which I assume Richmond was one of those.
Typical Lloyd pump up, but now we have him, I’ll take it that he should have been top 5!
Just scroll past the Dodson rubbish.

This kid turned down the NBL. He could be the answer for Richmond
Alex Dodson turned down the chance to play in the NBL for the Adelaide 36ers after emerging as the best ruck prospect in this year’s AFL draft class. Will the Tigers pounce?

This kid will be a gun. He moves so well.

This is why I think getting Serpell on the books was such a good idea.
Has a massive job on hand rehabbing the current crop of ACLs but if he’s as good as what they say we could have a steal with Hotton

If he can fix our long list of injuries, especially ACL's, he will literally have a blank cheque in the industry for life
Caesar from PRE just posted this info he found prior to the season
20m Sprint: 2.882 - (would have ranked him 3rd if recorded at the AFL combine)
Running Vertical Jump: 93cm - (would have ranked = 2nd if done at combine)
AFL Agility: 7.807 - (would have ranked him #1 if done at combine)
Thanks to Caesar the man is a legend and his work is greatly appreciated
