Hard-running Tiger Brandon Ellis enters the 2017 season with the best consecutive games sequence of any current Richmond player.

Ellis, 23, has played 81 games in-a-row, stretching all the way back to Round 12, 2013.

He has missed just three games all-up, since making his senior league debut with the Tigers in the opening round of the 2012 season, playing 110 of a possible 113 games during that time.

Second on Richmond’s 2017 list for most consecutive appearances is Jack Riewoldt.

The star key forward has played 69 games on-the-trot, with his successive sequence starting from the 2013 elimination final.

Dynamic midfielder Dustin Martin is currently the third most durable player at Tigerland.

Martin has played 47 consecutive games since Round 23, 2014.

North Melbourne’s Sam Gibson has played the most consecutive games of any player in the AFL competition heading into the new season, with 108.
