Always been a big fan of Presti, great no-nonense defender who got the job done with a minimum of fuss.

All the best for the future!

    Can we convince him to play a final season with the Dees? I'd have him. Pretty much the only pies player I wouldnt stab if I saw walking down the street.

    I was hoping no one would say "Lets get him" :wacko: <<Smacks forehead>>

    I will just put it down to that poster's sarcasm meter not working. B)

    Funny. I heard he has an older brother who could also be available.

    It would not worry me too much if we picked him up as a part time defence coach.

    Collingwood boards in a frenzy over how Malthouse forced the poor bloke out of the game prematurely.

    to make room for Tarrant maybe?

    The gorilla defender is an endangered species, and he was one of the last. Deserved to be part of a flag side too I reckon, but I guess that's life.

    Presti had a lot of toe that was his greatest attribute. Sure they probably didn't want the ball in his hands. But he could go with the fastest and most agile key forwards.

    I hate to say it, but I actually quite admire the bloke for how he dealt with his injury in the finals, and the pies for their plans with his jumper.

    Classy move and fantastic for their culture.

    I agree 25, that is the sort of attitude we may well need in the next decade. Selfless acts for the Betterment of the MFC.

    Well done Presti.

    There should be a hasbeens and hacks list where you can put one 100+ game player's name down every year but they can only play if you permanently put somebody off the list through the year through injury. Then clubs could give a guy like this a gig as a specialist coach and know that if there's a black death style injury crisis halfway through the year they've got somebody to throw in there and fill a gap.

    Even better, a hasbeen draft where each club gets to pick one of them so we can have the modern equivalent of Collingwood drafting Gerard Healy even though he didn't nominate and told them that he had no interest.

    With rubbish ideas like this I'm a cert to be seconded to the AFL Commission any day now.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
