I've heard rumours but none are from any legitimate source. I doubt that we'll ever hear anything official unless it is going to happen, which is highly unlikely.

I have it good authority that it's a waste of time going after players who grew up supporting Richmond so we shouldn't even bother.... :shh

Honestly why would you? He's done a bad injury you will have to pay massively over for him like 2 1st round picks and his best days are over. He will be a good player but not a great one from now on. It's not like the Chris Judd deal his injuries were to his shoulders and he's not a kpp, Fyfe is a leg fracture, anyone remember Nathan Brown here? He won't be as quick or as mobile but will still win contests but for 2 1st rounders and a million a year it would be stupid.

He is absolutely worth $1m and 2 x first rounders but I'm not sure how we could jag another first rounder and get Prestia.
Fyfe is 25 yo and has 6 great years left.
As fanciful as it might be, getting him would be game changing.

Different fracture mate. Totally different. Nathan's was a compound fracture tearing muscle and nerve.

Would be the biggest mistake they ever made trying to get him. He will be another Nathan Brown with that leg  ;D  :thumbsdown
