I have.. and the answer is no.

    Would you pay the same for a Ferrari that has been smashed and then repaired opposed to one that has never been smashed?

    Personally I wouldn't

    Work it out yourself. Regardless how bad his injury is GC will NOT offload him cheaply.. this guy is the 2nd best midfielder behind Ablett and the fact he is still contracted till 2016 they will play absolute hardball with him. When someone like Rodney Eade who with enough experience in the game they will still ask for a 1st rounder atleast.

    If jesse Hogan request a trade next year after missing half a year with a dodgy knee would you accept a 2nd rounder because we know it will affect him in the long run? Of course not! You still demand a 1st round draft pick.

    Seriously lets get some common sense back

    I can't link it at the moment, but according to an article on bigfooty; Prestia has turned us down to fulfil his contract with Gold Coast. Maybe next year I guess...

    O'Meara for mine.

    Not that I'm in a hurry to believe Prestia rumours, but I also won't be in a hurry to believe a player manager or Jay Clark.

    This could easily be damage control in case nothing happens.

    Right..... Well I guess i'll see you all again in this thread next year.

    He is injured any way. Better to wait and see if he can get over his injury. Good choice Demons. Good choice.

    Yeah ... next year.

    Closed? Why? This thread will be used again every year until he retires or desides to come to us.

    If only GNF had been feeding the rumour mill!

    Oh well, love the player but it's our own fault for being such a hot mess of a club for so long. If the Suns are still a mess next year, we'll have a much better shot at him. Maybe Dion was doing us a favour, realising he'd cost us 2 first-rounders while in-contract at the Suns.

  • Quote

    Not a bad call from Dion, really.

    Gold Coast will finish above us next year, if their injury list gets back in order.

    Do we have to go over this every time, hh? I know you change your tune at the drop of a hat, but Prestia is easily an A grader. Maybe check out YouTube for a few clips as that seems to be how you judge players.
  • Quote

    Sorry but what player have I ever judged by Youtube clips?

    And Prestia is most certainly a B grader

    You posted the below in the Christian Petracca thread less than two hours before asking this question:

    I havent, like everyone else I am just going by under 18 highlights and what we know about his style of play and physical attributes

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
