Richmond has locked in its AFL coaching structure for 2027 with multiple changes to its outlook.
Former North Melbourne player Jack Ziebell has been promoted from development coaching to a midfield assistant alongside Sam Lonergan.
Former Tigers captain Chris Newman has stepped up as the club's head of development with a litany of high-end draft picks making their way in the AFL.
Newman was previously the forwards coach, but that void will be filled by Blake Caracella, who worked with Lonergan with the midfield group.
Ex-Carlton and St Kilda coach Brett Ratten will oversee the coaching strategy and play a crucial role in assisting Adem Yze and his staff in ensuring Richmond is on the right path.
