Tyler Sonsie has had a promising start to his fifth season at Richmond, totalling 18 and 20 disposals after being a late in for round 2. He has only passed 20 twice in his career so far, both of which came in the last five rounds last campaign, so his graph is heading upwards even though it has been a very slow burn. For most of the full games he has played the Tigers midfield has been belted, giving him limited supply. The maturation of his own game and those of the high draft picks in the middle should mean he graduates this year into startability for fantasy.

Tyler Sonsie is most definitely an outside player, starting often on a wing with plenty of work on a half forward flank as well. Some players look at their best when delivering inside 50, and Sonsie is one of those, but of course that can't be the only arrow in your quiver. He is still lightly-framed, as many Richmond draftees are at this early stage of their rebuild, and he doesn't have the height or bulk of a Daniel Curtin type to compete in the air as yet. A couple more preseasons in the gym should fill him out so we can see his full potential.
