Brandon Ellis is the sort of player who was always going to excel at the newly-reinvigorated wing position, which has become increasingly important in the 6-6-6 rule era as a reversion to the classic role of running from goalsquare to goalsquare. He used to play half back at times at Richmond but his move to a wing was necessitated by his lack of close-checking defensive skills, but that's not really what the modern wing does. Wingmen in 2022 are mostly not fantasy premiums though as their workload contains too much off-ball running, and Ellis is no different on that metric.
