Richmond great Royce Hart is in a serious condition after a head-on crash in Hobart yesterday.

The crash occurred on the East Derwent Highway on Hobart’s eastern shore.

Several people were taken to hospital as a result of the crash.

Hart, who turned 73 last month, played with the Tigers for 11 seasons and won four premierships — two as captain.

He was recruited to Richmond in 1966 from the Clarence Football Club on Hobart’s eastern shore, and retired from the game at the age of 29.

Hart was named centre-half-forward in the AFL’s Team of the Century and was inducted as the 25th Legend of the Game in 2013.

More to come.
