The Christmas turkey has been digested and the New Year's sparklers have been tucked away for another year. It's time for the AFL's 18 teams to return to work.

RICHMOND

The burning desire to win their first final since 2001 would no doubt be fuelling the Tigers' pre-season and their hopes of achieving that goal have been given a huge boost by the fact that unimpeded key big man Ivan Maric has been one of the standout performers following an injury-riddled 2014. A further boost for the team is that only Steven Morris (shoulder), Matt Thomas (knee) and Ben Lennon (hip) have been on restricted programs due to surgery. The Tigers return from their break on Monday.
