Prescott also discusses the positives that came out of Essendon’s Round 22 loss to St Kilda.
“John Williams - the first gamer - came in and took a great mark in the centre of the ground and really showed a bit of his potential,” Prescott said.
The retirements of Essendon champions Adam Ramanauskas, Mal Michael, Jason Johnson and departure of Damien Peverill was also a discussion point.
“The way the club and the players handled the retirements and celebrated the retirements was really good,” he said.
“It’s been a development-type year. There are some pleasing aspects we can take out of it, but a 100-point loss is just not good enough,” he said.
“We now look forward to a solid preseason.”
With four big finals game to be played this weekend, Prescott provided an inside word on who would come out triumphant with a lot of games expected to go down to the wire.
“Hawthorn are an interesting side and a team I hope Essendon can model itself on in the coming years and I think Hawthorn will be just too strong,” Prescott said.
