The medical room: How is your club faring this pre-season?

RICHMOND

The Tigers’ rehab group has shrunk to four in recent weeks, with Shaun Hampson (ankle), Taylor Hunt (knee), Nathan Drummond (knee) and Chris Yarran (calf) being managed.

It's been a necessary turnaround for the club after a larger than usual nine players started the pre-season in cotton wool.

Recruit Yarran remains weeks away from full training and is completing his own program, which will likely keep him out of the NAB Challenge until later in the pre-season competition.

Hunt was due to join the main group this week after a minor knee injury.

Drummond must be more patient after rupturing his anterior cruciate ligament in late April last year.

Hampson underwent surgery on both ankles at the end of last season and is on track to feature late in the NAB Challenge.

Ben Lennon appears to be well past his glandular fever setback and has impressed in recent sessions.
