Player Watch #3: Dion Prestia

[Toadvine]

I was surprised how well he played coming in straight off a hammy. Should be even better this weekend against the hawks

I won't let this Lambo erasure stand

Champion

Feel for the guy just hope he’s back soon

 

[Sol23]

That sucks.
Dion was just getting into his work.

 

[SumTingWong]

Doesn't look too bad

 

[Maurice Mitchell]

Was on the ground after the game with no ice on. Hopefully just giving Dan a run on Dreamtime night

 

[Punt Road Feral]

Finger crossed it’s nothing serious.

His inside work gives us another leg in the centre.

 

[kyriael]

Bit of good news IMO - prestia was on the ground in full kit at FT.
No ice, normal playing top like the gurnsey

That can also mean it’s a shocker doesn’t it?

Hoping it was just tightness or precautionary because the game was over. Coaches may have wanted to give Rioli a run.

yeah im getting that feeling

he was walking around in full kit with no ice on at the end, all the bombers injuries seemed to have the jacket on

 

[Bird Man]

Looks like tightness towards the end of the game and tigers used the sub rule well

 

[Dunger]

Im hoping they wanted to limit his game time to get him back and use rioli.

I really hate the medical sub, the sub misses most of a game and cant get time in the 2s....

Hoping this was just an excuse to get Dan on for a run in DT - Prestia seemed to look ok, but his injury history is not great. would be a bad loss as him being back allows us to play both Dusty & Bolts up forward

Of course it was ... it was a charity for Rioli.
Nothing wrong with him and will play next week.

bit of a douche bag when i tried talking to him on the side line during training. Toby, Lambo Astbury were nice

He's probably in a bit of a shitty mood with his injury & or soreness after the hard work that comes with a long rehab process and to have his body let him down.
If that's the case they I kinda don't blame him if he didn't seem in the most chipper of moods.

When Dimma was questioned about Dion's injury in the post match he seemed extremely vague and almost embarrassed about it

Thinking we may have pulled a shifty here - Hope so

Hopefully just being overly cautious given his history with soft tissue injury’s
Happy to see him miss this week going into the bye so we know he’s ready to go

 

[Sir_Rancelot]

They said he will be out for a couple of weeks
