Plucked from Collingwood's VFL programme with pick 3 in the 2024 Mid-Season Rookie Draft, Hutchinson kicked a checkside for his first AFL goal within weeks of arriving. The 190cm Victorian played 16 games on a wing in 2025, his high-flying marking earning a Mark of the Year nomination before a hamstring injury ended his season. He has played 29 AFL games and kicked 6 goals.
