Dion Prestia Gives An Update On His Ankle Injury
He spoke with Fox Sports tonight.
Richmond midfielder Dion Prestia has given an update on his ankle injury that sent a scare through the Tigers camp yesterday.
Prestia has enjoyed a solid month of football leading up to the finals, but went down on his ankle yesterday at training.
"It might have looked a bit bad yesterday but I trained everything today in the main session that we did,” Prestia told Fox Sports.
“So it got a good hit out and it’s all good. The boys looked good today.”
Prestia said he has been battling the ankle injury all season and conceded that it will be something that he will need to deal with after the season.
“I’ve had a bit of an ankle thing going on all year so I’ve dealt with it for a long time, so no worries at all,” he said.
“I think it’s just something we’ll have to deal with at the end of the year but it’s not affecting my performance. Once we’re out and going, it’s fine.”
Prestia says he will be fit to take on Geelong next Friday night at the MCG and is confident it won't derail his finals campaign.
