Well not really. Geelong only have to take what they can get if Prismall is prepared to go to Richmond. Prismall is in the same boat Priddis was in last year so will he is not in our 22 he would be a starting midfielder for Essendon.

Priddis was actually on the rookie list last year. He is in a similiar position though as far as trying to break into a red hot midfield...
I don't think Pris can be too unhappy. It's not like there is people who shouldn't be getting a game ahead of him. His form in the 2's just before he got inured wasn't exactly catching everyone's eye either...

David Spriggs - a sad and forlorn tale of wasted talent - got pi**ed at Lorne and broke his leg jumping off the sea wall - never regained his speed and agility and ended up at the Swans - never made the grade there either. Now plays a casual and competent game for Port Melbourne. Fast like Tenace but a better kick. Nothing like Prismall as far as I recall.

I found that rediciously funny. :eek:

Anyway, if he was a better kick than Tenace he's okay in my books.

Thats a good point but that's assuming he's the best talent in the PSD. If he was genuinely upset with the club and wanted to leave (which he admittedley most likely isnt) then would Geelong really want to keep him? He doesn't seem like an important enough player to block a trade for.

He's a better player than Thornton

Got to remember he is a pure midfielder:
Ablett - Brownlow?
Bartel - AA
Ling AA?
Chapman - Gun
Corey - Having another great year
Selwood - Rising star favourite
James Kelly - Solid

Hard to break into that midfield

...what are you trying to prove?.. isnt that the very reason prissa might leave?
 
if we get a couple of injuries, we'll need him but with his talent he could play AFL elsewhere

its a catch 22

I'd like to see him stay but that could be a bit selfish, he deserves a chance
 
Be nice to see him add a few more strings to his game. I think he's good enough to warrant a permanent spot in the midfield in the future, but as many have mentioned, the current conundrum is who's spot he'd currently take over.

Being a more presentable, versatile option might help him out in the long term though ala a guy like Kelly, for example, who's proving himself capable in the half forward role, all the while being a more than handy impact player within the midfield rotations/mix.

But on the topic itself, I don't think we or he need to be overly concerned about his future here at the club.

He has just turned 21 I'm told. One post I read, not on our board, mentioned the achievements of others by this age - he is not a Chris Judd but he is damned good and we should do all we can to see that he doesn't feel alienated or overlooked - he is injured but is clearly in the mix. I'm confident he is being reassured by coaches that he is needed.
 
Why would he want to trade Moran for Prismall.
Both have huge potential and both.
Both clubs need players like them and thats why they are going to stay at there respective clubs.
If they were traded in a direct trade. Both clubs would make a huge mistake.

For me, depends on the depth of the draft. All good and well drafting a lot of youth and potential, if it gives us a shot at the next Franklin or Judd then great, but there'll be a window where we need Prismall when those draftees aren't ready for AFL. Prismall has shown he can play AFL and he was effective earlier this year.

I would take a top 10 pick in any draft for Prismall.

As would I.
I do like him though and hope he gets a game before the year's out.
Not a bad thing if he doesn't.
Always next year...
He's 21 and played 13 games. Plenty of time...

He is a keeper (not the cricket kind) will be a regular eventually, hey you can have your pick of the other fringe dwellers, Tenace, byrnes, Johno-- David that is, or take a gamble on Gamble....
Throw in Charlie G and Hank for luck
