Richmond, who could regain defender Nick Vlastuin (hamstring) for next week's trip to Adelaide, got its season back on track with Saturday night's victory over the Western Bulldogs, leveling their campaign at two wins and two losses.
The Tigers bounced back after their last-quarter fadeout against St Kilda in round three, with coach Damien Hardwick saying his line-up was evolving on the go.
"The reality is we've got a vastly different side now [to the ones we had previously]. We're really excited about some of the guys we've unearthed," Hardwick said post-game.
"Hugo Ralphsmith was wonderful again tonight, Josh Gibcus continues to grow, Ben Miller is becoming very reliable down back, so we've found some pieces of the puzzle that we think are going to be long-termers for us.
"And we're looking at the same in our VFL squad. Our recruiting and list management team did a wonderful job of stacking the draft last year and rewarding us with some valuable pieces moving forward, but we've got some players right here, right now who are becoming very good players for us."
