Seemed to have picked up a yard of pace from last week... :shh

Dion Prestia

Got plenty of the footy but did have the six turnovers. No one per centers and just two tackles. Still, 22 contested possessions and six clearances.

No surprise our clearance stats improve when he is in the side

Dion Prestia – 7
Not many would have had Prestia for first goalkicker, but the hard-nosed midfielder duly saluted after nearly 10 minutes of play. Bobbed up again to kick the ever-crucial first goal of the fourth term and finished with 14 touches.

Dion Prestia

The Richmond midfielder booted the opening goal of the match after an action packed first 10 minutes. The ‘meatball’ was right in the thick of the contest after half-time when the Tigers needed a player to lift. He booted the first goal of the last.

Not a lot of ball, but loads of grunt.

Hope he stays fit over summer and kills it again next year.

Normally suspect kicking for goal too, so nice to see him make it hurt.

Love him

Never like it when they down play these injuries, hope he's ok.

Yep.

Scans on Dion Prestia's hamstring have shown a medial strain. It's expected to be a short-to-medium term injury.
