Adelaide utility Andy Otten has signed a two-year contract extension with the AFL club.
The Victorian-born Otten shunned interest from rival clubs in his native state to remain with the Crows, where he has played 67 AFL games.
Otten has returned to form this season after knee problems curtailed his output in past seasons following his standout 2009, when he was runner-up in the Rising Star award.
“Andy has been one of our most consistent players this season, he has played key roles at either end of the ground,” Adelaide’s list manager David Noble said in a statement on Thursday.
