A RICHMOND draftee has been accused of assaulting three people in Alice Springs on New Year's Eve.

Troy Taylor, 18, was taken by Richmond with pick 51 in the 2009 national draft.

But his AFL future is in in doubt after his alleged involvement in an incident in which one man was taken to hospital and another two injured.

Northern Territory police last night confirmed they were investigating the alleged assault of three men aged 33, 39 and 47, at a party in Alice Springs about 12.30am on New Year's Day.

It doesn't sound too good for him, even though at this point the victim's words are nothing more than allegations.

It does make you wonder whether his off-field behaviour in the past was one of the reasons why he lasted until pick 51, given that he has so much talent as a player.

What a stupid thing to get your self involved with, on the brink of your AFL career. If Taylor is charged by police, then he will say good by to his AFL career. Is getting [censored] on new years eve, worth an AFL career?

Richmond will delist him for shore...

Don't bet on it.

Gebus, 3 blokes. Allegedly thats a fair effort for one person, let alone allegedly an 18 yr old

He is 18 years old. That's about the only thing that you don't have to qualify by using the word "allegedly". Apparently, he's allegedly a dickhead too but the Tigers allegedly don't have an alleged "no alleged dickheads policy".

Not sure how true this is, but I've heard he was on parole to begin with.

Though I'd suggest that's probably not 100% accurate

Sad way for his adult life to begin with, especially since he talked with The Age about not being that kind of person again before the draft.

Interesting to see Lovett is likely to be charged by the police for rape. The Saints lose Ball for nothing, give up an early pick for Lovett and it doesn't look like he will turn out in a Saints jumper.

Have not heard much about Hurley's beating up of the cab driver since it happen.

That's what the papers said. If true and he is charged and convicted of assaults, he will have breached his parole and that means a penalty on parole violation. At worst it could mean more jail time.

Mind you, that's how the Toigs like their recruits these days. Hardened up by a bit of a stretch in the big house. The policy has worked well so far because the Bloos and the Saints are gearing to imitate.

A bit of crap-talk to get picked up by someone, and obviously that's all it was!

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    The Demons head back to Melbourne after an embarrassing loss to the Dockers to take on the Magpies at the MCG on Kings Birthday. With a calf injury to Lachie Hunter and Jacob van Rooyen possibly returning from injury who comes in and who goes out?
