Gut instincts mate the most important thing of all   :shh
But really if he doesn't play next week he'll have a chance to have a mini pre season and gain some fitness. That along with just building fitness over the course of the season and increasing training load. He was starting to become a beast when fit at Gold Coast in recent years.

The problem is Simon that Prestia has had 9 months to recover from the operation on his knee.(presuming that the knee operation was just a minor clean up as suggested)

If he is unable to train and play to his full ability after 9 months then 11 months will make no difference.

By the way that beast hasn't been sighted since 2014 and believe to be now extinct.

That is concerning if that is the case, but my understanding is, he was on the road to recovery and building nicely when he tweaked it in the collingwood game, went for scans straight after that game.

He played some really good footy in 2015. He has the capability to be a top mid it's all just about his knee really. Which I think (hope) will come good.

On the bright side he'll be like a new recruit in 2018
Does anyone have half an idea on anything?

Our best draft pick for some years and we give it away for this bloke. Only at Richmond.

What's the difference?

Betamax Jackson would've found one of his "surprise" administrator-mummy-boy picks he's got up his sleeve. Don't worry about footy smarts because they are exemplary citizens, always willing to help a little old lady cross the street.  :rollin

He continues to baffle all the experts every time. Long live FJ.  :clapping

BJ Hartley and his list management wizardry is so good he has everyone in the AFL spellbound.  :bow

DanTheMan Richardson is so very proud of their work his head is glistening. :dancingpickle :dancing
