He's quite elusive in traffic for a chunky fella ain't he!...
Wonder if them 3 Gold Coast blokes hava a little chuckle amongst themselves?

In the 2017 finals he was one step behind Dusty. This year he has become a consistent elite midfielder / clearance specialist. I'm adding him to the built for finals squad....Caddy, Graham Dusty, Dion. And chuck in Grimes Vlas, Nank and me. I don't last this Long inJune

Be he isn't. He's no jet but he can be great at times and is somewhat a product of his role, he rushes sometimes when he doesn't need to, but that's just conditioning. He's not terrible, not great, but serviceable and a hell of a player.

The kick on the full raps him up for me. Yes, he gets the hard ball, but he can also butcher it.
I thought he was ok.

Yeh, I think its his shockers when under no pressure that confirm the opinion. Last nights OOTF was classic Prestia.

But he's a complete bull inside that doesn't stop working & running. His best year for tigers and as you note would be a worth JD medallist.

Ripper game again. 19 contested, most on the field. Most efficient disposals for the Tigers with 20. 8 clearances, 6 score involvements, 544 metres gained (most), 10 tackles {most}, even 6 intercepts (3rd most) unusual for a midfielder.

A couple of times he was just touched as he broke free and shanked the kicks but otherwise a brilliant performance.

Prestia is worth his weight in gold because he Sheda and the Chimp and co allow us to play Dusty forward.

One thing he has over Dusty is his defensive two way running ability. He had a massive 75 pressure act points to go with his 32 disposals. He's just the complete footballer, perfectly built for the Tiger game plan.

 

[Baloo]

Moaning about Prestia's kicking is a bit like moaning about Shed's kicking. Nitpicking for the sake of nitpicking

 

[nikolasmia]

Prestia is an elite inside outside midfielder with a proven big game record

A jet,

My biggest worry is his injury. Big concern

 

[HR]

The man is a gun.
Pretty sure dangerfield is rsted in the top 3 players atm and he is mkre likely to kick a ball off the park sideways.
Prestia is so far above a bad kick here or there territory.

 

[Tigertough1974]

Great game from Dion, very underrated player even by some of our own supporters!

 

[tigerlove]

Prestia last 7 games disposals; 32, 30,39,35,31,35,30.Flying under the radar a bit is Dion.

 

[nswtiger]

all Oz one would think
