Drafted to Richmond as a father-son selection with pick No. 51 overall at the 2020 AFL National Draft, Rioli Jnr’s two-year extension will further cement his strong affiliation with the Club.

The 19-year-old has booted 15 majors from his first 16 AFL games and is the #1 player in the AFL this season for causing scores from turnovers. Rioli Jnr also ranks #1 at Richmond for tackles per game inside 50, #6 for goals and #8 for goal assists.

Critical to our form shift.

Critical to the way we play.

He's the reason we look Richmondy again. And not the ridiculous Whately version.

What I saw yesterday at training he might kick 8 behinds. Couldn't find the middle at all. Was fumbly too. Hope the finals stage switches him on.
I see all that at training too and in game, (fumbly and poor kick), yet somehow he is becoming pivotal, hope he can clean things up a bit in the future.

I figure a lot of that is confidence and experience. This is the part of his game he needs to work on but a lot of that work will be between the ears.
