RICHMONDStart of pre-season: Thursday, November 1
Injury list: Jake King (foot, knee), Tyrone Vickery (shoulders), Brad Helbig (foot), Brett Deledio (knee)
The third-oldest player on the Tigers' list, King's body needed quite a bit of post-season attention and he is likely to have a restricted pre-Christmas training program. Vickery, who was mothballed midway through the season due to issues with his shoulders, will also be eased into training. Helbig suffered a serious foot injury while playing for the Tigers' VFL affiliate, Coburg, early this year. He returned to play in Richmond's last five games, but he needed further treatment on his foot at the end of the season, so he will continue to manage the issue over the summer. Deledio needed a cleanout on one of his knees, but it should not have a negative impact on his training program.
