Looks like Prismall is heading our way



Prismall will join in sessions at Whitten Oval as early as today after spending last week training with Port Adelaide.

It is believed the Power was keen to snare Prismall as a delisted free agent and the deal appeared all but done before the Dogs' interest intensified.

Prismall is now expected to bypass the free agency option and put himself at the mercy of the November 11 pre-season draft, where the Dogs have a pick before the Power.

The fact Prismall has been prepared to pack up and leave Port after only one week would suggest he has been all but guaranteed a spot on the Dogs' list via the pre-season draft.

It has essentially turned into a squabble between two of Prismall's former assistant coaches at Geelong, Brendan McCartney and Ken Hinkley, with McCartney seemingly set to win.

Hinkley, Port's new coach, invited Prismall to train with the Power and the player did not fly to Adelaide until last Sunday night.

Prismall may find it easier to break into Port's midfield, but a massive selling point for the Dogs is the fact he lives in Melbourne's inner west.

The Bombers have also stated they intend to put Prismall back on the senior list via the pre-season draft, but he will not slip that far.
