Meanwhile, the Tigers will gear up for a five-day Gold Coast training camp at the end of January.
The club has favoured Queensland for their pre-season conditioning hit-out for a number of years but have tended to head further north to destinations like Cairns, Maroochydore and Mooloolaba.
They famously held their 'Triple H' sessions on their 2017 Sunshine Coast camp, which saw players share personal life stories that helped unite the group ahead of what would be Grand Final success.
While the exact program is being kept under wraps, the players can lock in the fresh location of the Gold Coast in the month after they return from their mandated three-week Christmas break.

The pre-season camp
“We’re looking to go to the Gold Coast at the end of January, our second week back. A full week of training up there, balanced out with some team activities that we’ll do. By that stage we’ll be getting into some full-ground footy training, so it’ll start to ramp up and get quite serious. But the weather up there will be great and there’ll be some other good, fun things to do while we’re there.”

So Lynch will be going back to the Gold Coast....just when he thought he was safe

Richmond’s playing group will head north for pre-season camp on the Gold Coast next week.
It will be a change of scenery for the Tigers, who have spent their last few pre-season camps on the Sunshine Coast.
Assistant coach Blake Caracella said the camp, which runs from Sunday until Friday, will be instrumental for the younger players to “get around the older players and live in their pockets.”
“It’s a chance for those players to get to know their teammates who play next to them on the ground, and also to get to know them off-field as well and learn a bit about each other,” he said.
“And at the same time, we get to go about our training schedule like we would down here, we run the same program that we run in Melbourne… we’re looking forward to the sunshine.”
Caracella said the Tigers are excited for the week of solid training, bonding and pre-season refinement that awaits.
“We all know that the game moves pretty quickly and we need to try to stay ahead of the curve and find a way to improve on last year and hopefully go one better,” he said.
“We’ve got a pretty good list at the moment. Tom Lynch has been in rehab since he came to the club but he’s on track to play in Round 1, he did some drills today, and there’s only three or four other players that aren’t training.”
The players, particularly the young Tigers, will be looking to prove themselves on the Gold Coast ahead of selection for the JLT series.
With only two games in this year’s series, Caracella said selection will be tougher.
“In the past we’ve tended to play all our players two out of the three games, so I think this year we’ll lean towards playing our players in both those games which makes it hard to work out which young players to play,” he said.
“There’s only so many spots and (the players) need to get match fitness as well.”
The trip will also be a debut Richmond camp for new assistant coach Adam Kingsley, who Caracella said has “fitted in really well” at the Club.
“He’s got a great reputation,” Caracella said.
“He’ll be looking after the stoppages for us this year and doing some midfield stuff with myself as well.
“He’s brought some new ideas to help us with that contested ball and the stoppages, which we haven’t been fantastic at the last couple of years, but if we can improve in that area it might just help us go that one step further.”
Tiger fans in Queensland are welcomed to attend an open training session on Monday, January 21 at Bond University.
Players will be available for a short signing session after the training.

Ummm ... St Kilda were ranked last in Clearances and Contested Possessions in 2018.
Somebody please correct me if i am wrong.
Now Adam Kingsley WOULDN’T be totally responsible BUT ...

Burge also delivered positives updates on Jacob Townsend (femur), Jason Castagna (ankle) and Ryan Garthwaite (achilles), who are all tracking well in their recovery from minor injuries.
Burge forecasted a big year ahead for Richmond’s draftees, who he said have done a stellar job embodying the Richmond brand during their first time travelling with the side.
“They’re all showing something and they’re all very serious about their preparation. They go hard…they’re a really good group of young guys… and that’s on top of the great group we got last year as well,” he said.
From a performance perspective, Burge said the camp, which runs until Friday, allows the Club to polish its football program as well as integrate the younger players into newer drills and the way Richmond play.
“We’re second week back now from a three-week Christmas break and we did a really solid block pre-Christmas, where we did a mix of conditioning and football. Now, it’s becoming more football specific, game plan, so we’re really just honing in on that,” he said.
In addition to the training sessions, strength sessions and recovery sessions that make up the camp, a number of highly-anticipated activities are on the agenda which will be revealed to the boys in the days to come.
These bonding activities not only create a bit of fun, but also build on Richmond’s ever-important team connection.
