Height: 177cm
Weight: 76kg
DOB: 09/01/88
Debut: 2006
Games: 48

Recruited from: Ipswich/Mt Gravatt/Brisbane Lions
Draft history: Selected at pick no. 41 in the 2005 NAB AFL Draft
Bio: Small forward with undoubted skills, but his application to the game has been the query. Hooper was fined the maximum allowable $40,000 by the Lions for breaches of the players' code of conduct prior to the 2009 season. He managed just nine games and 13 goals despite the Lions' need for a crumber at the feet of Jonathan Brown and Daniel Bradshaw, with that poor return ultimately sealing his fate.
