The former GWS midfielder endured another injury-interrupted campaign in 2024, restricted to just 12 games due to knee and hamstring issues.

When fit he delivered by averaging 23.8 disposals, consistently amassing 20-plus disposals and multiple clearances frequently.

But he’ll be hoping to return to his All-Australian squad form of 2021 before long.

The opportunity is now there for Hopper to take charge of this developing Richmond midfield group and help drive the club forward.

Brownlow Medal: career votes 21.

Previous AFL club: GWS Giants (2016-22: 114 games, 42 goals).
