Brent Prismall

[AFL MAN]

I hate to say this but for brent prismall own sake i think he should go to another club. I'd love him to be at geelong but he is just going to keep missing out. Like timmy callan he is gettting a game now at the bulldogs. He would of wanted to stay but for his career he had to go.

I think prismall could nearly be in every other teams best 22 now

Sorry Pris

 

[cats2rise]

its only round three. Might be in the team next week and might play 20 games. Ya never know.

 

[chapmanmagic35]

Like Cats2Rise said, you never know. Someone might get injured this week and Pris may take his chance.

Funny things happen in sport.

 

[catempire]

I'm beginning to agree, although as c2r says, it's still early.

I'm pretty sure he would have been talked into staying at the end of 2007 with words to the effect of "we really rate you, you'll get your chance in '08".

If he doesn't get a decent run at it soon, I think we'll see the back of him at the end of the season. To me, that's unfortunate because I think he's a real talent that could fit into our current 22. He will flourish somewhere else.

 

[candiehappy]

He'll make it. A team isn't just 22 players. Opportunites will come up, even the supporters have to assasinate Byrnes.

 

[dtrainium]

I can't believe you just mentioned Byrnes in your post, I'm now predicting a 20 page thread.


I think he has done the right thing by staying on at this stage, surely our midfield can't stay healthy for the whole season. He'll get a crack at some stage.

As a bombers fan I'd love to have prismall. Is he out of contract at the end of the season?

 

[Windas_Magic]

What type of player is this kid? He's been rated pretty highly among you cat supporters, would like to see him get a game this week

I believe he is.

Midfielder. Ball magnet. Good skills.

But injury prone!!

 

[The Hulkster]

Personally i cannot beleive he isnt in the side. He is a far better player imo the Byrnes and how Tence got a game in round 1 in front of him is beyond me. But he will get his oppurtunity he just has to grab it when he does. He is certainly good enough to be in our best 22. I would hate for him to go to another club. Maybe there is somthing we dont know about that he has to work on in his game before he plays in the ones.

You can have him in return for Paddy Ryder and your top pick.

That's the second mention of Byrnes - come on every one, join the bandwagon !!!

But injury prone!!

Most of his injuries have been impact injuries such as Broken arm & wrist. No real long term concerns with those.

Ryder will just hamper Taylors development. I want Alwyn and there first pick

 

[someday-somehow]

Am I missing something....has Prismal been named as an emergency again?

 

[BlueOyster]

we are one injury away from prismall getting a game but it just doesnt seem to happen. he is next in line and waiting for an injury to:

ablett
bartel
chapman
kelly
selwood
corey

if one of these guys got injured (im hoping not) he is straight in.

 

[Brasil2007]

I reckon he'll get a run this week. Soft game, no pressure, opportunity to rest someone (Byrnes maybe).

 

[rocker_oz33]

Brent Prismall is the jamie siddons of the GFC

 

[Turbocat]

A player with a talent who will be lost for nothing unless we decide to be proactive.

Firstly he must be given a game in our best 22 , even at the cost of upsetting a couple Premiership players. This will at least give him some real value , which if he is determined to move will allow us move him with re-imbursement. Of course he may well find playing in a side , such as ours , preferable when he gets a regular game

 

[catempire]

If it goes that way Turbo and he wants to leave through lack of opportunities, I think we will lose him for nothing because he's out of contract.

PS. Good to see you post. You're regular contributions are missed.

 

[foxdog50]

Ireally feel for him, I can sadly say, if he doesnt get much of a run this year, he will put him self in the draft. That wont be good...

 

[rocker_oz33]

he was on the self in the last draft ...only for a few hours he;ll prob play few games late in the season

 

[WE Are Geelong]

This really is a perfect game and round for Prismall to get a go...there is no question about that. If any of the mids have a slight niggle its a very good time to rest them and give Prismall a proper hit out in his preferred position so we can really see what he is capable of doing in 2008.

I think waiting too much longer to give him a senior game this season is a mistake given how he wanted to leave at the end of 2007 but I also think playing him 'out of position' when his career at the cats is on the line is also a mistake.

 

[didak04]

Was very unlucky for Prismall that Selwood found his way to Geelong. If not for Selwood i feel Prismall would be firmly entrenched in the seniors by now. Will just have to bide his time in the ressies until an injury occurs unfortunately.
