October 28, 2021 We take a look at that draft nine years on and re-select what we feel is the top 10 from 2012.
Re-done top 10 of the 2012 National Draft1. Ollie Wines
2. Jack Macrae
3. Brodie Grundy
4. Lachie Whitfield
5. Jake Stringer
6. Nick Vlastuin(Originally: Pick 9, Richmond)
Vlastuin, originally Pick 9, has been an incredibly reliable interceptor in the back-half throughout his career at Tigerland.
Having been trialled in the forward-line and midfield before finally finding a home in defence, the three-time premiership player has also become a key leadership presence among the growing youth movement at Punt Road.
In Richmond’s 2020 premiership season, the 27-year-old ranked first in the AFL in total intercept marks.
