This deal smelled like bs from the start, some injured player lobs up out of the blue and says he wants to play for us and GC want a top pick for him, what a magical alignment of the stars.  Just like Yarran.  RFC multiple trade molestation victim getting set up again.
This!....it's a Yarran re-run and we will get bent over. Keep 6 and get Sam PS....screw any commitment made with Prestia. If he really wants to come to us walk him to the PSD.

Pick 6 for a player injured last 2 year not even elite.While Hill goes to Freo for pick 23 from hawks twice the better player that's how you trade ,but this is Richmond get sucked in.Even in something in return as I said before we need 2 picks in the mid 20 if pick 6 going or walk away.

Pick 22 for Prestia and pick 6 would be OK.

Prestia is a decent player. He's not a gun but he's a pooot load better than most of our squib eye midfielders. Got runs on the board and if we get 16-18 games a year out of him he's worth pick 6 when 22 is coming back. Or about pick 14-16 straight up.

You may be right,but how Hill goes for pick 23 two time premiership player while we always get bent over or even Mitchell to hawks from swans for pick 14 both a lot better same age bracket to.Need to hold firm simple and walk away.

Prestia is a very good B grader who is probably close to taking the next step.

He was runner up at the BnF in 2013 when Gaz won the brownlow, and 3rd the next year.

Has been Vice Captain since 2014.

His injuries, in particular in 2015 when he only played 8 games, concern me and in any other climate would reduce his trade value greatly. I would say GC are freaking out they're going to have a Brisbane esque situation if they don't stamp down on players quitting the club in great numbers.

Agree with Dooks, Pick six for Prestia and a reasonable return pick is about what his value is.

If the deal doesn't get done, I'm quite happy to go to the draft without getting Prestia.

Mitchell for 14 is a great trade by Hawthorn. Hill 19 games 11 goals in 2016. And not damaging by foot particularly. Not sure it's so great.

Hawks already have targets with the rather late picks they got for Mitchell.
RFC can't even negotiate for lids.

stuff the lot of them
Right off.

Have to agree to disagree on this Dooks. Due to unique circumstances involving the academy bids an absolute gun (in SPS) could slip to us. Imagine having Rioli on one wing and SPS on the other!..... We need to keep pick 6 at any cost....pffft pick 22, they'll just pick another Bachelor.

We have as much chance of nailing pick 30 as pick 6.
