He was the Wanderer in the first half, But he was Runaround Sue in the second

It just feels like such a risk taking him into any game, let alone if he's sore. I'd much rather take a fit McAuliffe than a sore Prestia into a game
I read elsewhere he has a tight calf again. I hope not as we need his game and experience even though we now expect him to pick up another injury every game
Must be driving poor Presty crazy, just niggle after niggle on top of injury. Bloke simply can't trust his body to do what's needed for elite level footy. Gotta feel for him n almost get to the point of thinking that he needs a big lunch box injury to rule the line under his career instead of shuffling off to old fart oblivion constantly doing two weeks of rehab for one week of play.
He looked very flat after the game. Been a fabulous career but reckon he knows it's close now.
Yze in his press conference said he copped a knock on his calf at training & went into the game sore !
Surely not
Surely not
You'd hope not but even if so, in light of all his issues lately, why didn't they play safe and sub him out maybe before the 3rd quarter closed out and let McAuliffe do his thing? Just made no sense to me to leave McAuliffe off for so long.

Yeah I know but those 14 were pretty impactful.
He was ok. He only played 90 of 120 TOG.
We seem to be content when Dow gets them (and much less impactful)
I noticed dion's calf was taped during the game, so what yze said was maybe correct. Just seems stupid though, considering Dion's injuring history. Fingers crossed he is ok for dustys 300. If we get big Tom back we are a chance to knock off the hawks
Won't play injured again.
Poor bastard can't get his body right.
We will be farewelling him too this year

Yep, gotta hunch he's gonna announce retirement after Duz's 300th game this week.
Imagine being ‘managed’ for a week & picking up yet another soft tissue injury? His body is definitely talking to him. Must be extremely disappointing for him to miss Dusty’s 300th.
