After five rounds the small-forward trio had combined for 23 goals (Rioli with eight) and 44 tackles (10 for Rioli). Rioli earned a goal of the week nomination in round 3 for a boundary line snap in the club’s win over West Coast. In addition to his work on-field, Rioli was impressive with his leadership off-field. Captain Trent Cotchin lauded Rioli for his leadership and maturity, saying “He’s been nothing short of outstanding and taking other guys that we’ve drafted into the club under his wing this season has been really special.” In April, coach Damien Hardwick said a midfield role lay in Rioli’s future, once the young forward developed the aerobic capacity required to play higher up the ground.

In round 19 he kicked a then career-best three goals, with all coming in the first quarter of the club’s win over Gold Coast. To that point he ranked fourth among all forwards in the league for both turnovers created and points from turnovers created. When September came Rioli would play in his first career final, turning in eight disposals and four tackles in a qualifying final victory over Geelong. He turned in a starring performance the next week though, kicking a career-high four goals as he helped Richmond towards their first Grand Final since his uncle Maurice did so in 1982. There he became a premiership player, contributing 11 disposals and five tackles in his side’s 48 point victory over minor premiers Adelaide. He did not come away unscathed however, suffering a broken foot that would require surgery and at least three months of rest and rehabilitation. At season’s end Rioli was named on the bench of the AFL Players’ Association’s 22 Under 22 team which recognises the best young players in the league. He also received the league Goal of the Year award for his round 3 snap, despite it not winning the fan vote for that round’s best.
