Apparently Yarran is down at the Club the past 3 weeks training with the help of Tom Couch according to the latest Talking Tigers podcast.
I also heard that Tom Couch went over to WA with him to supervise his training.
Yep.
--------------------------------------------
Herald Sun journalist Jon Ralph has serious reservations as to whether Chris Yarran will return to the AFL with Richmond.
Yarran signed with a the club on a four year deal and the end of 2015, but failed to play single game with the Tigers in 2016 due to a foot injury, before receiving time off to deal with a mental health condition.
“Chris is yet to prove that he’s going to play football again to be honest,” Ralph told KB on Hungry for Sport.
“I think he signed a four year deal at Richmond, he’s had a lot of issues and he’s trying to work through those now.
“I think he was back in Perth over the off season, I think young Tom Couch who’s a part of the fitness staff and also plays VFL, had a great year in the VFL has been over there helping him.
“There’s some people you think they’ve got an issue, I’m sure they’ll overcome it. I think with Chris he needs to prove that that’s possible.
“I think that Richmond would be hopeful rather than wildly optimistic that Chris will come back and play (in 2017).”
