Bio
Selected by Adelaide with pick number two in the 2020 National Draft, Riley Thilthorpe arrived at West Lakes as the highest draft selection in the club's history, carrying significant expectations as a local South Australian talent. A towering athletic tall capable of splitting time between deep forward and the ruck, he distinguished himself with agility rare for his 200cm frame and strong contested marking hands. While his early career was punctuated by flashes of brillianceโincluding a match-winning goal over his head against St Kilda in his debut seasonโhe required time to build the physical resilience necessary for key position football. By 2026, Thilthorpe had overcome intermittent injury setbacks and development hurdles to establish himself as a central pillar in the Crows' forward structure, offering a reliable avenue to goal and structural importance to the side.
