What!! How can he be not what we need, people complain we lack pace and grunt... Prestia=tick! He's an explosive version of Lachie Neale. While need is an accumulator in a Prussia mode, Prestia is in the shuey mould. Absolute star in the making and you wouldn't knock him back in a thousand years. We have to spend the danger dough, so unless giving Mackay another 4 years or vb a golden handshake is an option; id love us
To target a thommo replacement. Prestia is that player. Much prefer to Hurley or Neale.
This is my preference :D

Cmon get serious ......you honestly prefer to get Prestia rather than be safe and secure MacKay on another 4 year contract extension ......these views really surprise me :huh:
Anyday of the week.

Prestia is younger and can be a match winner. Whilst what does Mackay offer?

Preston is the type we need. Has speed and is a clearance bull. Need to look at his disposal stats a little more, but is better than Neale every day of the week IMO.

We won't be getting him though, so why bother talking about it, I guess.

I would keep Van Berlo for next year, otherwise we won't have someone to set the standards for running laps at West Lakes.:huh:

Wonder if the club has looked at Jake Barrett from GWS. Absolute ball magnet at NEAFL level and has only had 1 game in his 3 years (pretty sure he came on as sub). Pretty quick too from memory.

If a player of Prestia's calibre is available and is willing to come to your club, you give up what you've got to give up to make the trade happen.

Kid racked up 13 Brownlow votes as a 21 year old in a crap side.

You'd be surprised what actual midfielder ability Wayne's-World is prepared to sacrifice in order to get his 1.2 contested grabs per game. Literally nothing else matters at all. No contested marks, no deal.

Nope ....another midget :p ......speedy player, but honestly he again is not the type of player we need

Prestia is a line breaker ......we fixed up that deficiency already at the trade & draft table
wayne I don't think a line breaker is a problem as a player

Think about it - how could that be a negative
