    Dion prestia has not said he will be at the suns next year, or he wants to be part of their future, his manager said at this stage he will see out his contract, quite literally the only comment he could make that leaves the door open and doesn't cause a media circus

    True.

    The Cam Mcarthy saga just proved that. Contracted till 2017 and set to go home. GWS won't stop that as much as they say they will.

    Why bother with FA players just say where they want to go and get it arranged even if they are contracted.

    Apparently Freo are the 'early' front runners for his services. They need him more than the Eagles do anyway.

    Damo said that Freo are, of course, keen on Hogan but at this stage believe it is unlikely he will be interested in coming home in the near future.

    One of their ruckmen?

  • Quote

    Can't verify this guys source personally but he told me we are treating getting Prestia like getting Roos, just going to chop at it until we get him.

    He isn't a Melbourne supporter either. Was told at 7:30am this morning. Thought nothing much of it then the Todd Viney meeting now that tweet I'll try and push for more info when I next see him. (Prob thur or fri)

    Zac Smith and Prestia?

    EDIT. Prestia would immediately become my favourite player. :P Yeah, okay, I'm fickle and star-starved.

    Insert another and I'll think about it

    Well most of his family are mad dees

    My feelings on the Prestia situation are that we aren't out of the running until 5pm on the last day of the trade period.

    I do like this... but Smith is an agile no. 1 ruckman.

    While we need ruck depth and he's better than Spencer he doesn't make our starting 22 any better. Unfortunately he's not a forward, if he could kick 1 or 2 a week then he'd replace Dawes no issue.

    I think he meant his source wasn't a dees fan.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.
