The Tigers have won 18 times since the turn of the century when trailing at the final change, however on just five occasions, the margin has been two goals or greater.
The biggest three-quarter time margin Richmond has overcome since 2000 was in Round 17, 2008, when it trailed the Brisbane Lions by 25 points.
