    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.

    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.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
