It was openly stated on the broadcast that Prestia signed with Richmond during Round 18. Look at how that played out.
No it wasn't. They said rd 18 was the point that they told the suns that he wanted to go to Richmond. Prestia spoke to the club and coaches then.
Nothing then happened till the trade is made. Then the deal was signed.

Now that sounds like a more credible answer.

20 posts in 5 years and you pipe up now. Interesting. And you try and argue but just enhance my point. He was fully committed to Richmond by round 18 in the season. His manager notified senior Suns' management that that was the case, and Prestia himself notifies Eade and co. that he has committed to Richmond. There were 2 years worth of discussions just to get to that point. My point was that the media try and play it out, like all trades, like it's a last minute decision. It was done with 5 rounds to play out during the home and away season.

Another interesting topic from that Player Agent show, was that Dangerfield's manager was very aware of players presence in the media, and that it was important for players not to receive over-exposure in the media. How does she explain this year ??
I had to laugh at the comment when she said it

Toyota are THE major partner of the AFL, but that doesn't stop clubs being sponsored by Ford, Holden, Jeep, VW, Renault, Audi, Fiat, Hyundai, Kia, Mazda...
Holden. Lol. Remember them?

Have they pulled him back at all lately? Have noticed a lot of ridicule in his direction on social media from supporters. People are definitely sick of him.

Good question. I reckon they might have, but I don't live in Melbourne. Up until a few weeks ago, he was a full blown media whore, but it seems to have tapered off leading into finals.

Didnt he or Geelong come out and say they were taking away some of his media commitments.

Reckon it was after that HILARIOUS press conference about Kane Cornes's comments.

In fact, I reckon it was just after we smashed them!

No it doesn't prove your point

You said he signed in round 18, but it now looks like something very different happened

Straight from Prestia's agent's mouth. Marty Pask was one of the most prominent manager's on the show.

No it wasn't. They said rd 18 was the point that they told the suns that he wanted to go to Richmond. Prestia spoke to the club and coaches then.

That's a pretty big exaggeration by the looks

Not sure when Lambo last made a 's**t' car. Sure, they may not have been as well put together as a Porsche or Ferrari but they've always built exciting cars.

Well until Audi bought them, they've been great cars albeit more boring.
