Your club's biggest draft hit and miss since 2014

Biggest hit: Nathan Broad, pick 67, 2015

Biggest miss: Corey Ellis, pick 12, 2014

The Tigers were one of the League's dominant forces for the majority of this time period, limiting their access to the very top echelon of talent, but they still had their share of hits to top off their premiership list build. WA product Broad was the best of these, joining Richmond with a late pick in 2015. Five years later, he was a triple premiership player. Shai Bolton (pick 29, 2016) and Jack Graham (pick 53, 2016) arrived the following year and have also outperformed their draft rankings. Richmond has traded several of its top picks for established talent but one of their few top-15 picks, Corey Ellis, failed to fire, as did fellow ball-winner Riley Collier-Dawkins (pick 20 in 2018).
