The left-footed Motlop, who played primarily as a midfielder or small forward, featured 54 times as a Kangaroo, including the 1999 Grand Final win over Carlton.
Quick and elusive with terrific goal sense, the Larrakia man kicked two of his 31 goals in royal blue and white in that clash.
He was a regular fixture in champion coach Denis Pagan's side across 2000 and 2001, playing 35 games in those two years before departing the club at the end of 2003.
The Motlop surname is one of the most well known within the football world. Shannon is brother to teammate Daniel and Steven (Geelong, Port Adelaide), cousin to Marlon (Port Adelaide) and uncle to Jesse (Carlton).
