Cancelled
Half way through the season the MFC made a statement that they were not in the race for Dion.
After what seemed like a two year chase to land the midfielder, the club was pretty adamant this year he wasn't being poached. Can't help but think the Dee's could've landed him if the contract was right.
I understand the club has other needs around the ground and that mids (inside) are a plenty at Melbourne. Where does the Fyfe calls for hogan come into play then. The 2017 first rounder could have been used along with a player. Having Prestia would have strengthened the depth in the midfield and given Melbourne stronger advantage for future trading with their kids. It's working well for GWS who keep a strong stockpile of young guns who can be traded back for high picks.
And now the poor bastard has to go to Richmond.
